Problem:
The first reflection must be based on the readings from one of Units 1-4 (i.e., Week 1-4). Students must draw on all of the readings for the particular selected unit in their reflections. Although students are expected to demonstrate a clear understanding of the readings, reflection papers are not intended to simply summarize the readings. Rather, students should outline the main points of the readings and use this as the basis for a critical reflection. Critical reflections should demonstrate depth in thinking about the material they are learning, and evaluate critically how theories and practices of geography can influence their own lived experiences and observations about the world.
