readings that you did not know before class? Describe one way in which what you
learnt connects to either a different subject/topic you are interested in, or a personal
experience.
2. What were 1-2 points discussed in lecture/readings that you are still confused/unclear
about and would like some further clarification on?
3. What topics/questions would you like to learn more about or discuss more based on
content covered in the lecture/readings?
Each student needs to submit their own reflection. We will use the Turnitin software to check for plagiarism and compare assignments. AVAR

Data
The dataset wage2.dta contains a sample with individual wages (lwage), education
(educ), and IQ (IQ), which can be used as a proxy for ability.
