  What I feel I've enjoyed most in this class is that we focus on considering an issue from different viewpoints and perspectives, and while we do debate the validity of certain points vs. others, I like that the class itself isn't about collectively deciding on a "right" answer. I've had a lot of classes in my college career where I feel like interpretation is too often a "top-down" process in which students are essentially expected to regurgitate a professor's viewpoints (not naming names, though) and I really appreciate the more wholistic, organic approach we take in this class. I definitely also enjoy the format of our papers in this class now. It was hard for me to adjust at first to the more interactive format of a "webpaper" versus a term paper, but when I began to think of images, links, and videos in my paper as citations that could enhance the clarity of my arguments, I found it a lot easier to find ways to incorporate them into my work.
