A New Tone of Voice

This class has been very different from prior classes I've been in. I found that the more easy-going atmosphere made me feel more free to show what I'd learned casually, like it were just interesting information I was sharing with others, rather than something for a grade. This class has challenged me to think in new and different ways, analyzing not only history but how history is told (a far more interesting subject, in my opinion). The most important thing this class has taught me, though, is that I can think deeply and critically and express my ideas and opinions intelligently and eloquently while still maintaining a tone that is more casual than I've always been taught is "correct".
