Today I learned several different things, all of which interesting, few of which I fully understood. There was lots of information being thrown at me from all angles which I feel led to my comprehension of certain topics being a little hazy.
I will start with something that I really need to work on, though maybe not as significant now, but I know nearer the exam I will be freaking about over it. Scholars. it is that simple, I just don’t get why there are so many names that I NEED to remember for one topic. I understand that relating opinion to theory is a major thing however, so I need to work on remembering (and learning) scholars and their views/work on that particular area.
Now for what I enjoyed the most, or what I understood the quickest. I really enjoyed learning about ‘The Equality Act 2010’ and also ‘Allport’s Scale of Prejudice and Discrimination’ as both were extremely interesting with both of them being new to me. Before the lecture I was unaware of both now however, I have went home and researched both more widely and come to learn more about them both, sparking my interest into looking at the rest of the module as a whole.
I feel okay in terms of learning Inclusion and Equality for the exam although I am well aware that I must work through example questions and research more thoroughly in order to gain the most out of today.
