  1. What do you feel like you learned this unit that you didn’t know before? I learned how to do a proper ethnography, although I based mine off of a fictional world, I still learned how to do it.
  2. What did you already know, but now understand better or learned more about? I learned more about how to go about analyzing my observations. With the ethnography, I had to take what was observed and analyze it and break it down and I feel I learned to do that better.
  3. What (if anything) do you feel like I wanted you to learn, but you still aren’t sure about? I don’t think there was anything that was taught this unit that I am still unsure about. Everything was explained properly.
  4. What are the strengths of your final project article? What are you most proud of? The strengths of my final article I feel would be the way that I analyzed my observations. I am most proud of the setting used for my ethnography. Writing real things like an ethnography about fictional places is a very fun experience.
  5. If you were to revise your final project article, what would you want to do differently? I would have given a more in depth and vivid description about the place I was describing, not a generalized description.
  6. How would you describe or rate your participation/engagement in this unit? I would rate it a 7/10, because although I did the project and the draft and peer review, I missed the annotations.
  7. What did you do this unit that helped make you successful? I took the criticisms you provided about my work and really tried to apply them when I wrote my revised draft.
  8. What skills or habits do you want to bring with you to next semester, and what habits do you want to leave behind? I would like the habit of doing things last minute to be left behind this semester. What I would like to bring with me is my imagination used in this semester.
  9. What was your favorite unit this semester and why? My favorite unit this semester is the 3rd one because I liked the project for it the most. While this was incredibly fun to do, I still found unit threes to be highly entertaining to complete which I believe increased the quality of it.
  10. Do you have any suggestions for what I should change when I revise this class for next semester? I think you should do exactly what you did this semester for the rest of them. The way you structured this class for this semester was done very well.
