Not having a perspective of each people
At the beginning of the class, we had an explanation that what is the bias and what is not. It said telling the truth is not a bias, but I think even though they are telling the truth when the information they use is completely partial, we could say it is still biased. For example, the media such as New York Times are biased but still reporting the fact too. They hide the inconvenient information and choosing the words, but they are still telling the fact. So, I still think we have to think about this conflict, having a perspective on the Israeli side. Maybe, there would be another fact that we can find out if we do this.
After that, we got into groups and discussed how we can constitute a class that is meaningful for the student. I thought watching videos is essential to take the content of the lesson as their own knowledge, and their own experience. When I watched the documentary of Israel and Palestine, I was shocked about the cruelty of the war. I also thought it was important to have a lecture to have a common understanding of the fact. Ofcourse, having a discussion sould be the main part of the class. I enjoyed thinking about the class, having a discussion with friends.
