Final Relevance

The relevance of black studies is important and should be emphasized on more in are society . I have learned many new things from my experiences in the class . I will pass them on to others and tell them how they need to take a African American studies course . It really doesn’t matter if your African American or white or whatever ethnicity the relevance is still the same . You learn some many life stories and lessons from the information obtained from the course . The groups have been doing a very good job of explaining the different side and parts of African American history . How it has evolved from the past to the present . Even though sometimes I hated doing the blogs or the assignments I really benefited so much from the assignments . I really cant even see all the benefits I have received rite now because there are so many . The things I have learned in the course will carry over into my other studies . Especially the information we learned from the speakers also listening to there life stories about there drive to achieve . The fact that you should never give up and also have a plan plus make goals for yourself in that plan to make sure you are still on track . The class as a whole has been amazing even though I came into the class thinking it was going to be a cake walk . I was proven wrong on the first week ! Which I still enjoyed the class and are teachers excitement about the topics or subjects being taught in class that day . Also how the class really wasn’t like a lector were we would have to take notes everyday .Except it was more of a discussion class which students got more involved plus took in more information . Since we were interacting with one another . Every thing kind of just went together with are presentations and group projects they all contain interaction with are peers which made the setting a lot more comfortable for the presenters . So with all this being said it all goes back to the relevance of learning these studies . The class will be a lot more appealing to others if they knew all the things that would happen in the class. The easier ways of learning involved in the course . A lot of students think the class may be challenging due to the lack information about African American history. The class makes the learning process a lot easier and comfortable for the students involved in the course. So I would suggest this class for a lot of other students who have a lack of information about African American history . That are also interested in learning about the relevance and importance of African American history . I really enjoyed this course and I appreciate everything you have done for me ms flippin god bless !!
