The War...

Today in class, we were quite barbaric... We have had a discussion on topics that we had to answer for homework. Walter, Angie, Soho, and some other kids. These kids were amazing, and gives me the intention of thinking of their personality as a well prepared, organized person. Anyways, the conversation for 77minutes was disastrous. It was very intimidating, and just gave the sense to me that I needed to talk! Kids were stating about Barbaric scenery's, on the route to India. Now, one intellegent kid had this amazing, interesting mind of saying that "Columbus is stupid..." and the story goes on. Mr. Armstrong was a good talker during class, but he was quite in to it too... He stupidified some people, but also taught us to get focused on the topic when discussing. We learned that we need to "site our sources," because people were stumped due to the fact they didn't know where in the world they have got their information. Overall, class was quite interesting but noisy in a way...
note!Studying all day is worth it, because knowing your facts would have gave us a solid A...

Interesting summary Brian. What could have helped make your seminar better today? Good advice for other students on how to come better prepared for seminar discussions.
