Education and Critical Thinking Development

Step 1: Recall a fear you once had and have since overcome. Describe that fear. What were you afraid of? How did you feel physically and emotionally? How did you respond to your environment, friends, or family? Describe the feeling in as much sensory detail as you can. Imagine yourself experiencing this fear again and describe how you feel and what you fear. Step 2: Now take a step back from experiencing the fear and relate how you overcame the fear. What knowledge did you acquire? What process did you go through? What did you learn about yourself? Step 3: Now write an essay to your classmates in which you relate what all this means. What lesson(s) did you learn that can be applied to others going through a similar experience? How can you apply this experience in a general sense to other young adults? What advice would you give others based on your wisdom?
