This course is having little effect on my personal life. I am able to balance my school work and my social life. However, this course is taking a prominent role in my understanding and values. I know the importance of thoroughly doing my assigned readings. These readings benefit my writing and help me have a better understanding of the course. My values as a student are affected because I am doing my work diligently without outside help since there is an abundance of materials provided. This course relates to my anthropology course because I am assigned readings followed by my summaries or analyses. I find myself using methods we learned like Sullivan’s method to complete these analyses.
