I'm glad that you enjoyed the class. It is interesting that you said power is the place people have in life. What is place? Is knowledge place? . I like how you began to see how it connected to your short story. Do you think the General's knowledge actually led to his downfall? What happens if you have too much power? These are just some ideas to think about.

Homework Assignment:

Something that stood out in Thursday's class was the Power presentations. In both Power presentations the groups mentioned that power is not only your strength. Power also shows the position in your life, where you stand on your power scale. Power is the way you are. I noticed this reminded me on how the story "The Most Dangerous Game," reveals the people's power. The hunters power of threatening to get his way. Also, having loads of money allowing him to do whatever he wants and whenever he wants to do it. Related to corruption and getting what you want.(Status in life.) I learned that power isn't everything but its a huge part of who you are and how you succed in life.
I really enjoyed the class and how we worked together as a group, and able to work with who we wanted. Working with your friends makes public speaking easier:)
