  1. What do you feel like you learned this unit that you didn’t know before? I learned a lot about scientific articles and how you would write one as I have never written one before.
  2. What did you already know, but now understand better or learned more about? I became better at differentiating real graphs and articles from fake ones.
  3. What (if anything) do you feel like I wanted you to learn, but you still aren’t sure about? It would be scientific writing for me. It is just difficult for me to make almost every word so sophisticated.
  4. What are the strengths of your final project article? What are you most proud of? I believe my strengths are the graphs that I did for the article and the idea I used for the article. I am most proud of the amount of the introduction to my project.
  5. If you were to revise your final project article, what would you want to do differently? I would have wanted to add more scientific terminology because that was the paret that I struggled with.
  6. How would you describe or rate your participation/engagement in this unit? I would say it’s an 8/10, I have overall kept up with everything and handed it all in. But I could have put more effort into making all of the zoom meetings.
  7. What did you do this unit that helped make you successful? I used the resources provided by the professor like the fake scientific articles and her own videos on scientific writing and I believe it helped me write a somewhat successful article.
  8. What (if anything) do you want to do differently in the next unit?  Attend more lectures would be the main thing I would like to do differently.
  9. Please complete the sentence: “This class would be better if……” we were in person, but its great as it is now.
  10. For you, how did this unit compare to the News Unit and/or the Humanities Unit? I found this unit more fun, mainly because the final project for this unit was the most entertaining project yet.
  11. What (if anything) from this unit would you like to discuss/think about/explore further? (either this semester or just in your life) I would like to discuss further on the topic of fake articles purposefully done in worlds like Harry Potter and Star Wars.
  12. What would you like to see in the remaining weeks of the semester? More projects like this one that gave us a great way to funnel our imagination and just go crazy with the writing, while at the same time keeping it relevant to the unit topic.
