Post 6

As far as my level of participation in the class is concerned, well, I have never been the type that voluntarily participates in class discussions, no matter how interested I am in the subject being taught, so my personal level of participation hasn't changed much. I find this class very interesting, and I think that what we are learning about now is just as interesting as what we discussed in the first half of the semester. Though I cannot speak for the rest of the class, it seems to me that perhaps the reason participation has dropped off, besides it being so close to spring break and everyone being worn out, is because of the content we are learning about. Before, we were learning concepts about speech which required us to find examples and do analysis. However, now we are learning content, which is more fact based, and therefore requires less involvement and discussion from us.
