Drawing on course readings in the attachments, write a 5-7 page Reflective Memo that is a re-visiting your
answer to the question (the original answer I wrote is in the attachment below)
– what role do you think educational policies have
played (or not played) in addressing these issues (the original answer I wrote is in the attrtive of the pedagogy and practice needed to achieve your post
played (or not played) in addressing these issues (the original answer I wrote is in the attrtive of the pedagogy and practice needed to achieve your post
-read the attached readings and have a reading reflection on your answer
Consider what you had learned through your involvement in this class and the course reading content that most directly relates to the policy recommendation you thought was the most important before you listened to the speakers or participated in the workshops.
