18. What was the central theme for this course? Why? How does your choice relate to...(insert one issue as an example)...
The central theme of this course was "current events". This created the basis for the course and allowed us to branch off into different sub- subjects. For example, the Arab- Israeli conflict. Not only did we hear and read about the event in the news, but we also created our own simulation to help us better understand the issue and its history. Many of the issues that we discussed, also had a lot of history behind them. For example, the Syrian Civil War. There has been conflict between President Bashar Al-Assad and Syrian citizens for many years, but we recently were exposed to the conflict between the President and the rebel group. This course exposed me to the issues and I was able to learn about them in more depth.
