Discussion Reflection 5: Lewis & Clark

Write a short reflective piece (250-300 words) regarding Tuesday's discussion about excerpts from the journals of Lewis and Clark. You can write about one or two compelling discussion points that emerged, questions you still have about the reading or about a topic raised in the discussion, or a different perspective that struck you after thinking back on the discussion. You might also connect the discussion to other concepts and topics/readings relative to the course. This is meant to be an open-ended exercise encouraging you to think critically about the discussion activity and demonstrate that you learned something from it. However, be sure to do more than simply summarize what we discussed or the reading itself.

For the discussion reflections, please submit your assignment as a text entry directly through Canvas. You are welcome to type it first in Word and to then copy/paste it into Canvas, if you want to use Word's spelling and grammar check (avoid Word's thesaurus, though—it's junk). I am not looking for these entries to be among your best writing. Do give it a quick proofread, though, to ensure that I can understand whatever you have written.

This reflection is due by noon, Wednesday, Feb. 15.
