PromptsReflect on the various ideas you have read and express your opinion. Since reading, has your opinion changed? Why or why not?Were there ideas, not discussed, that should have been discussed?Overall, do you feel well informed? Better informed? Or still not well informed? Why?Do you believe any of the ideas you have read about could happen?With summaries and thoughtful reflection, this entry should be at least 3-6 pages. There should be at least 1-2 pages of summary to summarize 6 articles and 2-4 pages of reflection. I would expect this journal entry to take about three nights of reading and reflection all together.
