We also learned how these familial challenges have been altered or worsened in 2020.

In previous papers, some of you have met the basic criteria in the past but didn’t really dig deeper into your reflection and stayed more at a surface level. You will lose points for not going deeper in this reflection. Type through your thinking and the why behind your response.
1. Describe two “ah hah!” moments you had during this unit. By “ah hah!” moments, I refer to moments when you were reading, watching, or listening to something and a lightbulb goes off where you better understand something, something changed your thinking, or something you wondered about became clarified. Discuss each moment and explain why they were important to you. In contrast, you can describe moments you had where content made you uncomfortable or challenged you in ways you didn’t necessarily expect. You’ll need to unpack why these feelings arouse for you.
