I'm glad we have to do this midway assignment because it's really making me think, go back to, re-digest, re-read and understand the material we've covered so far. I suppose that's the point of assignments. I thought I understood the readings and concepts we were going along week by week but it's only when I start to pull the ideas and concepts together for my assignment that I realise I need to dig deeper, and start to do so. I think it's coming together though. Well not quite yet, but I think it should do.
There are so many ideas out there, mostly not really competing with each other, but sort of similar-but-expressed-in-different ways. Almost like no one talked to each other before coming up with this stuff, or, everyone wants to be the one who came up with it! Or, we're all really similar and people are doomed to always repeat what others have said and few can be truly original or novel.
I don't mind. Sometimes reading about something written in slightly different ways helps to increase the depth of understanding and that surely is a good thing.
