A little bit short. Since the title is "Closed Prompt," I'd have liked to see more of what we learned from the closed prompts besides these couple bits of info. Maybe some opinions from you too?
ReplyDeleteI like how you made such a simple outline for all the complicated the stuff that we learned about for Closed Prompts. I have to agree with Reina though, I think you could've gone a little more in depth with what we've learned and actually reflect on your experience and how this affected you.
