3. Contains a brief paragraph how it connects to your study of humanities. 1 point
~ The town of San Luis Obispo (SLO) relates to my study of humanities because the towns people of SLO are very into their culture. They have a very active night life in a very small town, so there is a lot of interaction and learning between people. They also have a higher learning facility, California Polytechnic Institute SLO.
4. Contains the following "analytical elements":
a. Observation: What did you choose? What do you see or hear or feel or think of in the choice you made? What is the subject of the work? If you chose a 'thing' what is the work made of and what techniques (colors, lines, shapes, textures)does the creator use? Be specific in your description. If you chose a place, be specific in your description of what you see or hear. Talk to your reader as though they cannot see the item but somehow must draw a painting of what you see or hear. 1 point
~ The town that i chose was San Luis Obispo. I think that I choose a very interesting town. Even though they are a small town, they are full of activity. As I looked at videos and websites, I saw that the town has a very busy night life. Every Thursday they have a farmers market from 6pm to 9pm. The bars and pubs often have live entertainment. There is a high population of college students (about 20,000) and yet there seems to be a good mix of all age groups at any given time.
b. Interpretation: What is your choice about? Give specific examples to support this statement in 2 sentences; do so in a way that teaches us something about your choice. Make Paulo Freire proud! .75 point
~ My choice of town is centered around having pride for your town. Not only because of their highly sought after college, but also because of their love of community.
c. Judgment: What led you to your choice? What do you think or feel about this choice? Why do you feel this way? Support your thoughts with specific observations. .5 point
~ I chose this city because I am planning to transfer to Cal Poly next fall and I wanted to learn more about the city I will soon be living in. I am glad with my choice of researching this city because now I am even more in love with the coast line, the people and the college.
d. Questioning: What else would you like to know about this choice? When completing the question section, lead your audience into the question by stating a fact you do know, yet you still have the related question. This way, both your audience and you will have an educational experience. Example: I learned that John Steinbeck's Grapes of Wrath was based on his personal experience working with farm workers. I would like to know if the characters he used in that book are fictitious or are they people he met? .5 point
~ I have learned that the town of San Luis Obispo offers a farmers market once a week and has many pubs, but I would like to know if they offer anything else like night clubs or other hang outs for college students.
5. Using your classmates work from last week, tell us one thing you learned from 1 student. Is this one thing some common experience you share or some experience that is completely different than what you experienced? Is this one thing related to our class theoretical foundation and if so, how? Is that one thing related to historical or cultural context of this country or a different one? Link that persons blog to this entry (eg cut paste that blog entry here) . 5 point
~ One thing that I learned from Colleen was that he did not believe in the idea of education "banking", which is only one sided. He believed that education was a two way street between educator and pupil. This is a common experience for me. I have been in many situations where I was explaining something to someone and they showed me a different way of interpreting the same information that I never realized it could have been. This is related to our classes theoretical foundation because that type of learning is what we are trying to experience. We are giving our thoughts and ideas, but we are also learning from our classmates and teacher. I believe that this idea relates to our country because a majority of lower education does not use this idea. They are all about trying to cram information into the children's heads and they do not give them the chance to critically analyze anything.
