In Class Writing #1

One way I will apply mindful learning to this course is to be consciously deliberate. I need to learn deliberately, however, not through blunt memorization or holding myself hostage to my books, but to engage my mind and absorb the material. While I have been conditioned throughout the years to perfect material and then allow it to dissolve after a test I can identify with also absorbing the learning and being able to recall it today.   One of the most prominent times I can recall is my freshman year of high school while reading Romeo and Juliet. I could probably still recount every study guide. This is because I found a reason to love the material, to relate to it. I just need to find that in everything I come across this semester.
