My thinking about science and humanities have changed a lot after finishing this course.The reason is because I got a chance to learn more about science whether it had to do with the people who have impacted it like Rosalind Franklin or Percy Julian. By being able to read about their lives and see what kind of impact they had it made me look at science in a different way,meaning that there could be countless possibilities for scientists. When it comes down to humanities it was interesting to learn about everything that we read including Darwin or McEwan,which were the two most enjoyable for me. Also about the selfish gene or the selfless gene. Its interesting to know what humans are able to do when it really comes down to survival. Even though learning about humanities was interesting, I still see myself more as a science person. I would always feel that way because science is something that I love to learn about and I still feel that there's more to discover in science.
I am more optimistic about science and technology now because I see everything that went on and what was built throughout time. For example one of the biggest reasons why I'm so optimistic about technology is because of the robots. It was cool to learn about what is going on today in the world that involves robots. It makes me look at a more positive outcome in the future on what better stuff people can build. I feel that throughout time people are going to come up with the craziest and best inventions ever. Hopefully,it can benefit all of us.
This class taught me how to make a better understanding of science or humanities. It gave me more of an open mind to what is going on whether it had to do with technology,science,or humanities. I will always keep in mind everything that I learned throughout the class because it taught me much more than I thought it would.
