As the course ends, I look back on the work Ive completed
throughout the course and for my signature assignments and feel proud of the work I have submitted. I think the work done demonstrates achievement in that they were well-composed and submitted on time. The assignments I have done for this course have connected with what I have learned in other General Education classes in that they have broadened my knowledge of the world around me and have taught me to look past what I already know. Prior to this class, I did not know much about family structures or marriage; this course has definitely expanded my knowledge on the concepts relating to family and marriage. The information provided through this class also challenged my current assumptions; I was not aware of many of the facts regarding divorce, homosexual relationships, or family structures and found that many ideas or facts that I thought to be true were, in fact, wrong. This class was enlightening in that it opened my eyes to many concepts I was simply unaware of or ignorant of. When working on this assignment, I thought back on the entire class and found that there was not one concept or assignment learned or completed that I was more proud of; in general, I found that there was not one assignment I wanted to highlight as I was proud of all of them. I decided to choose the assignments I did simply because they were based on concepts I was most interested it and they demonstrated that I had learned something new and exciting. I think the assignments I chose illustrated growth and change in that I have learned and accepted new ideas and will be able to apply them to my life later on. I think many of the concepts learned in this class when I have my own family one day and that is why I feel this class has promoted growth and change.
