It is clear to me that most of my fellow students didn't understand the "cup of tea" idea was just an example of a "little" object. The idea, as I understood it, was to choose something small and relate it to something of cosmic consequence. I think the explanation of the "Liitle Big" idea was fascinating, but it needed to be more carefully explained for it to be understood by those whose first language is not English. Almost all of the students, without proper guidance, did not mention a "little" object and for those that did, it was "a cup of tea"!

Good overview of big history . The concluding essay though is best left for those seeking a certificate.

Corso approssimativo senza un filo logico. Quattro argomenti messi insieme senza nessun approfondimento.
