Space Science Honors! The Final Post!!!

Throughout the semester, we did a number of activities and projects.  Overall I enjoyed making the Moon poster.  I liked that it was based mainly on our opinions and we had the choice to do whatever we wanted to do with it.  The technology that I enjoyed using the most was Glogster.  I had fun making the online poster and using the different elements to make it pop. 
My least favorite topic was the star formation theory and top down web.  It was hard for me to remember the order they went in and the definitions for all of the star types.   The one program that I did not enjoy working with was the Prezi.  It was confusing to begin with and I had some difficulty understanding how to use it.
Overall I had a good time in Space Science, but if there was one thing i could change, it would probably be the notes.  I ended up learning everything i needed to, but all of the power points kind of confused me.  I would insted give out worksheets or have more class discusions.
The hardest thing to comprehend in class was the star formation, and the universe formation theories.  Although I understand them now, I had a hard time wrapping my mind around all of the facts, and information.  A lot of the theories amazed me and I still cant believe that science has gotten so advanced.
I had a great time in Space Science Honors, and I enjoyed learning the things I did.
