Several times during the semester, you will be asked to deal with the following questions. You should think about these goals following every class period and make notations to ease your task when later asked to reflect in writing.

1. Has this course assisted you in communicating things to others? Can you give examples?

2. Can you give examples of how this course has engaged you in "thinking"? Can you especially note any examples of "critical thinking" (see p. 25 in your Academic Catalog).

3. Can you discuss how this course has helped you develop your ability to understand "choices" made by humans.

4. Can you discuss and give examples of how this course has helped you understand how conclusions are reached in science?

5. Can you give examples of how this course has dealt with information or subjects more broadly than simply "geologic"?

6. Can you find any examples of this course dealing with aspects of cultures other than your own, either currently or historically?
