I am learning in Aquinas especially this week that learning is miserable. It includes trial and error and erasing and re-doing and realization. Learning in Aquinas seems to be about a certain level of responsibility. I am attempting to adjust to these new standards. And the tricky thing is that they are not that tricky at all I am just realizing that learning is not something I did before I just acquired a certain level of knowledge and spewed it back up in the form of a paper. Learning is about doing something in a way that challenges you. Learning for me lately has been about getting it wrong and I am having hard time seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.
But at the same time I have a hard time believing that we are doing this course and not learn anything. I now know that I do my best learning outside of the classroom. And I feel like if I want to learn that I will because the best way to figure something out is to do it yourself.
This might be totally off beat but I don`t think that it is. Aquinas is kind of like dancing, when you just let the person who knows what they are doing lead you will be fine and maybe even have a good time.
