Reflection 1: My thoughts about my thoughts
My name is Megan, and I think. Admittedly, after a particularly unimpressive sentence slips through my lips, the previous statement can be questioned. Perhaps I should I add a disclaimer: My name is Megan, and I think*. *Void in situations involving the need to impress people, including, but not limited to, professors, potential employers, celebrities, […]
University trained thought, and where it breaks down
The sense of urgency is a must. Priorities change for what’s most important to me depending on their immediate relevance. If my assignment is not due for a few days or the exam is not for another week then I am more then happy to push things aside. I find building relationships and spending time […]
Reflection 1- “Think” you dummy!
Hi my name is Abriel and here is my two cents about “thinking” Obviously, thinking is the intellectual activity of a subject’s consciousness. But what is it really?

I have a photographic memory enabling me to visualize precisely where on a piece of paper the word, sentence, diagram, or concept I’m thinking of could be […]
Reflection 1 – Thinking about Thinking
Reflection 1 I would say that my thinking process moulds to the situation that I am in. For example, in school, we are often marked and evaluated on metrics such as thoroughness, clarity, accuracy, precision, use of evidence, and fairness – all elements of critical thinking. In these types of situations, be it in writing […]
Reflection 1 – Finance and Photography: Two Ways of Thinking; One Brain
Hi, my name is Tim; I’ve lived in five countries, I love pizza, and I love working with Excel. No that’s not a joke; if I were bent on social-suicide, I could probably write a poem about Excel. Columns of digits bending across the sheet… Endless lines defining the limits of infinity…formulas connecting inputs… inputs […]
