Cooperation

 This unit, we were tasked with commenting on the learning plan of a partner. While there were some logistical difficulties with this in my case, I really liked this addition to the class. By having another person to bounce ideas off of and critique work, I found myself trying to create better assignments. This kind of learning has helped me address some of the problems I have had with regards to direction and focus within a unit. I also thought that it benefited me to look at another person's interpretation of a similar theme. My partner approached the text in a very different way than I do and I feel that it helped me to understand my own books in a new way.

I wish though, that I had been able to participate more in this addition to class. I think that it is a good template for the next unit. I would love to be able to collaborate with my classmates and improve my writing in a less independent way. I have always done my best work when pushed by others, so I think that this will serve as a benefit for me in the last unit.
