WebLog 1: CLASS SURVEY
Personal information

2. Shawn
3. AYA Language Arts (7-12 English)
4. Running, traveling and a great deal of bumper stickers.

Learning Style and more:
5. A fair and complete understanding of our classroom goals our discussions.

6. I consider myself exceedingly active in the classroom, and a student who aspires to always be prepared.
   I prefer for the classroom to be open and discussion based. Although some days we, in frustration, may circle the room, eventually we will find the door we which to open. 
   When I cannot understand a topic or idea I usually spent more time listening, hoping to grab onto the topic from a perspectiveI do understand.
7. N/A

Education Past and Present
8. Spending a semester studying Medivial literature.  I was astounded and its profoudn reliatability to our life experiences. Good teachers point these things out.
9. The balance between a safe and structured classroom enviornment and one that promotes freethinking.
10. (1) We must always be active in class, with one another and with the readings (2) If we are forced to go through the readings in course, we will never have the opportunity to jump into what they mean, therefore we must always be prepared (3) The conversation leader should have a clear and leading understanding of where the discussion should go, before letting it go and flow into what it may become. (4) We should avoid speaking at one another, rather, we should speak to one another in order to create.


About Dr. Shutkin:
11. If you were to ask a few questions we should be able to 'wrap our heads around' after this course: what would they be?
