As Humanities Core content exposed me to brand new stories and concepts, through the website project I was able to tie them back to aspects of my life and previous education that are close to me. I'd never even heard of a bestiary before Humanities Core, so being able to write about my favorite mythical creature of all time - the siren - made it infinitely easier and more interesting to engage with an idea that was brand new to me. A Midsummer Night's dream was a play I've adored since middle school, and yet literary analysis has never been a strong suit of mine. Combining a concept I'm extensively knowledgeable about, theatre, with a brand new writing technique was so liberating and challenging in all the best ways. When we finally reached the section of the course on Persian literature, the texts were so rich, so complicated, and so incredibly new. But, once again, I was allowed space to interweave the learning I was doing in HumCore with a lifelong passion of mine, activism. I'm so grateful to have been able to explore so many new facets and methods of education by way of the website project, and I look forward to delving even deeper in the Winter and Spring. See you then!
