The objective of this assignment was to take notes on a race riot slideshow. I count this as a grow because I could have done better on it. It was difficult to read and understand so many slides, then summarize it into one paragraph. By the time I was done reading slides I would already have forgotten what I read in the beginning. The best way I could grow in this assignment is by reading quickly and taking short notes on every slide. Moving forward I want to focus on what I'm reading and take important notes to make a proper summary.
