Introduction

I chose to take facing history and ourselves because it seemed to be intriguing even though I didn't know what it really was. Now that I have taken this course, I can see clearly what I couldn't see before and I also act different. This is a course that you will get to analyze who you truly are in so may areas. The only true homework is having to reflect on the movies that you have just watched and this helps because when you reflect on the movies, you are analyzing who you are out loud for other people to see. There are several times when we watched movies that didn't interest me one bit and I had to go home and give my thoughts. That is the beauty of this course. Mr. Gallagher doesn't expect you to to understand very movie or even expect you to relate to everything that happens in class but as long as yo walk out that class having learning some thing new let be a date or a fact, he will be happy. The course teaches you why somethings through out history are the way they are and shows you how today’s society is changed by them. In this very course, I learned that its very important to know the facts and to be able to analyze the evidence in any given situation. It is for this class that I can say I that I have changed for the better and I am glad that I took it.
