Reflecting on the Course

I believe this course was a valuable learning experience for me. It made me reconsider what childhood means and what it has meant in the past. It has done the same for how I think of education. We were given the opportunity to look at how these subjects were approached in the past which allows us to consider how it is approached now, and how they may be approached in the future. We learned about how much education was valued in the past and how that has changed over time. We also learned about how the experience of childhood and education has differed between generations and between ethnicities. The class discussions also allowed us to consider the opinions of others and hear how they understand a topic. I think the discussions are particularly valuable even if we disagree with what is being said, as long as we are open-minded about what we are hearing and learning.
