This was my first time enrolling in any ENVR course at UBC. It felt a little bit like an adventure; not only did I venture outside of my major but the course was also taught in a completely non-traditional manner. The lectures and learning goals were curiosity driven, thought-provoking and engaging, and I thought that by wrapping it up with a term project we had a great chance to test our learning in the form of applications. One of the valuable practices I'll be taking away from this course would be fact-checking my sources. The media and T/F technique we saw in class was really enlightening, especially when I had been proven wrong about many facts I thought were true throughout my time as a student. Dissecting and debating topics delivered from media, which nowadays are a major source of our stream of knowledge is going to be a very important habit to adopt and I am grateful for the experience I was able to derive from taking this class. Thank you to the teaching team for having us and for entertaining all of our future visions and solutions. :)

The class was constantly engaged with the material too, which is just something very special about how this course is structured and taught :)
