Ill have to admit I had some doubts comming into this particular class, I am one of those students who doesn't like to be asked to think outside the box. I also was worried that my opinions of certain social issues would change, this was actually the exact opposites. Through or studies of race, class, gender, sexuality, power and privilege I began to understand opinions different than mine, this not only gave me insight into the views of others and it let me re-define my own.

In our class we explored different themes seen in educational society. We learned about the Worth of a student, value of a student, identity of a student, humanity of a student, access to opportunity, and consciousness, humanity, and liberation. All of these topics are crucial to future teachers in that we need to be prepared to deal with differences within the classroom and this course will help you do that. 

All in all it was a fun course in which the professor allows you to speak your mind and give as much input as you want. Just remember to go into it with an open mind and make sure that you know your own views before you decide to discuss the viewpoints of others.
