Reflection for the end of the year
As the school year winds down, you may want to consider changes for next year. Consider a writing prompt to ellicit some feedback for direction for the coming year. Some ideas are:
a. Advice that you would give a friend taking this course next term.
b. Write on “The 2007-2008 Chapter of My Mathematics Autobiography” as if you were talking to an interviewer at your 10th year reunion. Be sure to include your answers to the following:
1. What was the final mathematics course you completed in school?
2. What did you learn?
3. What is mathematics good for?
4. Where have you used the mathematics that you learned this year?
5. Particular events, activities, etc. that stand out in your mind.
