Since I have taken the India Epics class before some of these assignments are familiar, and I remember from that class really enjoying the comments on each other's blogs. They ended up being really constructive by the end of the semester and I was able to follow along and find favorite storybooks that I saw grow as the semester went along. I am also excited for the reading assignments as I mostly read dry science materials.
For the extra credit I am looking forward to the growth mindset and HEART extra credit options. I do not know much about these theories and would like to learn more.
Something that reminded me of the kinds of stories I think we will encounter in this class-
Lam-Ang, Philippine folklore hero, summoning animals as aide for an upcoming battle.

Hey Marielle!
ReplyDeleteI bet taking Indian Epics was a great experience! Did that give you a lot of confidence heading into this course! When I enrolled in this course, I was immediately intrigued by the diversity of the projects and stories and knew I was going to expand my mind. Has taking this course been a completely different experience for you? Or is it similar to when you took the other one?
