The goal of this Astronomy 101 (and 111, if enrolled) Final Reflection is for you to look back on your experiences and learning this semester in the Astronomy 101/111 course(s). From neurobiology, cognitive science, and psychology, we know that reflection is key to remembering and learning.

For your Astronomy 101/111 Final Reflection, please reflect broadly on your experiences in the Astronomy 101/111 class this semester. Please consider all of your experiences, including but not limited to lecture videos, weekly assignments, reading, writing, meeting with a member of the teaching team, office hours, study groups, and other experiences outside the class setting.

Please come up with a reflection that is in response to:

• What did you learn from your experiences in the Astronomy 101/111 courses this semester that will continue to influence you for many years to come?
• How did you learn these things?

Please be as specific as you can and provide examples whenever possible to support the statements you make. Be sure to share your thoughts in complete sentences. The final reflection will be graded on:

• having 800 or more words
• being submitted on time
• addressing the prompt in the box above, and
• evidence of thoughtful reflection and organized writing on your part.

NOTE: There is no single or "right" way to approach this reflection. That said, your reflection should NOT simply recount or list the activities that you have done this semester. Also, your reflection should NOT be an evaluation of the course.
