Course Reflection

Not sure what to say about this class... I had a very

difficult time understanding and retaining the information
presented. Im not sure if it was the subject matter or the
way the information is relayed or what. It quickly became my
least favorite class of the semester and ended up being the
class that I did all my other homework in. No matter how
hard I tried to pay attention, it just wasnt going to happen
for me. I realized that the only way I was going to learn
anything in ENS 434 was to listen to his lectures through
Blackboard over and over again. Even then, i still did not do
well on any of Fabios exams. The exams seemed not to
cover what we discussed in class, or were written in such a
way that I was never really sure what he was asking.

In addition, I did not understand the reason for the

debate and the final project. I understand that we had to
complete a project to pass the class, but I just dont
understand the reasoning for a debate and coming up with
an invention in a class that is meant to motivate people to
changing their lifestyle habits from unhealthy to healthy. I
begrudgingly put effort into each project but did so kicking
and screaming.
I definitely would not recommend this class if it wasnt
required as part of my curriculum. I cant say I learned
anything at all.
