Question

Some classes you’ve had and the styles of learning they fostered by answering these questions.

Answer 1

2 years ago I took a philosophy class. That class was very interesting to me not only because I like philosophy but because the teacher used interactive techniques to make us learn. For example quizzes and group discussions. This made me feel involved and also not bored. We didn't use textbooks however sometimes we did get handouts with explanation.

On the other hand, I was taking a German class which was exhausting. In this class we revised a lot and talked about the same topic for about 3 weeks. The thing is the teacher does everything with the class while I think individually working is also helpful. She also went through the materials and exercises fast pace but it was too hard to keep up. Which made me more confused than feeling like I learnt new things.
