I liked how this class went on our own pace. It was helpful that we were able to have input on the research project schedule and give suggestions as to when we would be able to finish our assignments by a reasonable date. I also like how this class was mostly discussion. I learned a lot more through the discussions than I would have if it was just a lecture class. The Martin Luther King site that was shown really opened my eyes to what kind of tricks sites try to play on their viewers. It is really necessary to find sites that are reliable. I also really like blogging. It is a lot more relaxing than writing an essay and I feel that I can better express my feelings and opinions through blogs. Also, it allows me to comment and give suggestions to my fellow classmates through their blogs. The only help I really need for this project to be successful is input. I need to know what is and isn't working in my draft and what suggestions I can get about preparing my presentation.

Major Research Question: Is there a pattern between the dreams of college students and what causes this pattern?

Thesis:There is a theme pattern with dreams in which activities that a college student is involved in, relationships that they have with people, and/or situations they have experienced or will experience will appear within his or her dream.

Presentation: I am going to be making a website. On this website, I am going to include the results to my survey, quotes from the works that I've used, a YouTube video relating to my topic, newspaper articles, and other examples of the theme patterns within college students' dreams. The color theme I am going to use is a cool-colored theme included blues and greens and teals in order to set a relaxing feeling to go along with my topic. I would like suggestions on things to put on my website if anyone has any!

Thanks! :)
