So today we turned our final paper in and got to play a review game.  It was helpful just to hear some of the questions that might be asked on the final.  Some of them i thought were pretty hard, and i had no idea what the answer was.  Then there were some that were no brainers to me, but i couldnt get my hand up fast enough.  I think the MLA will ( Read more... )

So today we were able to peer edit our papers which was a big help because i made some mistakes.  I like how you can get more than just one persons opinion on the stuff you write.  Its a nice way to help out fellow classmates and to have a different set of eyes reading your paper then giving you advise on it.  The final is starting to worry me, and ( Read more... )

We also went over how to correctly cite our sources, which is a good thing because i made a few mistakes on the paper but now i know what i did wrong. Im glad AC explained it for the entire second part of class so we had more time to ask questions and understand it more clearly. Im alittle worried about that part of the final about the MLA because ( Read more... )

Today we were discussing the Vietnam war and how we were losing the battle because of the gorilla warfare being used. I cant stand it when i hear about soldiers that just got back from the war alive and as soon as they get home they get spit on or yelled at for what they did. This makes me mad because over there you didnt know who your enemy was. ( Read more... )

Well today was one of the more interesting days of class because we spent a lot of time talking about conspiracy theories. I think well i know this paper will be the most interesting because we get to choose the conspiracy we want to research. Its going to be fun to read some of these papers and find out more about certain conspiracies. We also got ( Read more... )

Ok im going to say that this field trip to the 6th Floor beats any other field trip iv ever been on, which means it beats the 5th grade trip to the zoo!! Going around and being able to listen to someone talk you through the whole exhibit was really cool. Actually being able to see where the shooter was positioned was just amazing. The 7th floor ( Read more... )

Today in class we were talking about Nixon and JFK. I always thought Nixon was way older than JFK but Professor Gunderson said they were actually pretty close in age. I couldnt believe the pictures of him before he was what everyone pictures him. Then we started talking  about the JFK assassination and how there are so many theories about it. I  ( Read more... )

Ok so today we presented our project over woodstock, and i think it went really well. I didnt realize how long we were up there for, and i just hope we dont get counted off to much for it. We had more clips and interesting stuff that we just didnt have time for, but i feel like we did pretty good. My favorite part of the whole thing would probably ( Read more... )

Today the presentations started, and the people that went today did a great job. I really liked the Star Wars presentation because thats a very interesting topic to me. Once again Courtney's video was funny and a very good representation of what that time period was like. The Mickey Mouse presentation had a lot of interesting facts that I never ( Read more... )

Today we had to take our test and I didnt think it was to hard. The multiple choice was very easy i thought, and i only struggled with one of the short answer questions. The only thing that I will be worried about is if I answered the short answers exactly right and i didnt get off topic. Sometimes I do that and I dont even realize it, but all and ( Read more... )
