Learning Assessment:

For the last two weeks, we have studied transcendentalism. We explored some writings by Henry David Thoreau and Ralph Waldo Emerson. We have discussed at length self-reliance, free thought, optimism, non-conformity, and the importance of nature. What did you learn from these readings? How is transcendentalism applicable to your own life? What ideas do you agree or disagree with? Why?
