Chapter 10: Strategies (Procedure), and Chapter 11: Strategies (Principles) ** by ** Manal Alanazy ** My reflection: ** I believe Watsatree had made a good job in her presentation on chapter 10. She summarize the chapter into 3 pages which I believe will be helpful, for me, to go back and look at it to refresh my memory about the chapter and what happen in the class. Watsatree’s summarization improved my understanding on this chapter by highlighting the important pointing this chapter.

I really like how Miriam produces her presentation. It really shows me how strong teacher she is. I liked the way she tried to apply the principles strategies to real life. Even if the examples did sometimes match but it opened a discussion in the classroom, which I like. Also, her handout, which was a summarization of the chapter into 2 pages, will be a good source to go back to and recall what we discuss in the class.

For the case of study, I believe this is the most confusing work or job for me in this class. Every time I thought I got it, the next class things changes. When I try to understand why we are changing, the only thing I hear is “this is a messy process”. I really feel frustrated from the case of study. When I sat down and think about this, I said to myself “its maybe because this class is an International class and there are a lot of cultures and backgrounds, each one of us see things from different angle.” Any way, since we will start from scratch, hopefully I’ll do it this time right.

In general, I believe every day I come to this class I learn something new, different from the previous class. Each one has his/her own way to introduce the presentation and guest speaker. Also, each one has his/her own way to come up with questions for each chapter. These differences enhance my awareness of how people think.
