Week 5 Reflective Writing

Week 5 Reflective Writing

Q REFLECTIVE WRITING= worth up to 25 points. I want an overview of what you learned in class (if face to face class) or online as a result of the instructor’s master notes/ power points (online class). DO NOT REFLECT ON THE TEXT READINGS. It must be 150 words minimum- about 15 sentences. The reflection must contain one outside APA citation within the reflection from an online article- not the texts. It must also contain a reference of the article at the end (not just a web address). In other words- author or organization, magazine/ article title, date, etc. DO NOT USE QUOTATIONS- they just take up space! At least 85% of the reflection must be from my master notes or power points. View the example provided. Your response should also include all of the hallmarks of good writing: clear main ideas, specific details to provide evidence for your ideas, and writing that is clear of errors and typos. This reflection is due by 11:59 pm of Sunday, week 5.

In this week’s reading we covered some of ancient India's empires as well as the Chinese dynasties that lasted between 206 BCE - 1268 CE. Like pretty much all civilizations that existed on this planet these dynasties and empires were consumed with war and turmoil with small periods of peace and order. It appears conquest hits an all-time high during the Mongol invasion of the Yuan Dynasty in (1268 – 1279 CE). Throughout this time advancements in social, economic and technology are made, and these advancements end up benefiting the human race as a whole. You can't stop progress!
