2. Write an informal short essay reflecting upon your learning experience. This should be approximately 500 words, is worth 4% of your final grade, and is due on December 18 (before midnight).

Reflect upon the extent to which those questions have been addressed, as well as questions or areas of confusion that remain. What are some significant insights you have gained? Were any of your assumptions challenged or affirmed? How has your learning experience has been academically and/or personally meaningful? The essay will be graded on a pass/fail basis.
