Prompt: Think about your experience using GALILEO to find sources. How was this different from how you have searched for information in the past? Explain how using specific search strategies and evaluating sources impacted the quality of what you found.

 Prompt Response: This was different from how I have searched for information in the past due to the amount of specific information I can find. Using Google is useful but you can never find the specific data or information you need. Galileo gives you specific years, anchor words, and subjects to help you find the exact information you need. It's been great for essays and assignments with more specific information being needed. This is how Galileo was different from how I have searched for information in the past.  

Summary: I learned the proper way to do MLA format for my assignment. 

Reflection: I worked on gathering information from articles, magazines, images.

Prompt: Discuss something meaningful or memorable you experienced over the break, or reflect on what you felt most thankful for during that time.

  Prompt Response:  Something memorable I experienced over the break was playing guitar with my 80 year old grandfather. He's been a guitarist ever since he was 14. Stories are always told when i'm around due to our love of music. Music bonds us together and it's a joy talking about his past with music. I'm very grateful and lucky that I get to have a grandfather like him. I will remember these memories until the end of time.  Summary: I learned about the new vocabulary in module 4 today.  Reflection:  We did sections 1-4 for the module 4 vocabulary.

Prompt: After watching the short film Identity, write a blog post reflecting on how the masks in the film represent the pressure to fit in and the struggle to discover who you really are. Choose one moment from the film that stood out to you and explain why. Then, connect the film’s message to Langston Hughes’ poem “I, Too” and to the mask you are creating in class. What part of your identity do you want your mask to reveal?

  Prompt Response:   The masks in Identity show how we hide our true selves to fit in. Figuring who you really are is hard, but the film suggests our genuine, imperfect identity is the most important. Both "Identity" and "I, Too" show the struggle of being told who you are and the strength it takes to be yourself.
