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 pointI picked Chicano Park, for the simple fact that I have never been there and have always wanted to go. From the images I've researched it seems people are having fun and many people gather there. The entire park is surrounded of murals painted by the people from the community. The murals are to remind them of their past and to represent the people of today. It's also to bring hope for a brighter and better future for Latinos.
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
This choice to me is about my culture. It's a nice feeling knowing that people are uniting to provide a brighter future for themselves and their families. Education is key to make a better name for yourself, your family, your community, and your people.
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 pointI picked the Chicano Park because I drove by it once while my family and I made a quick trip driving to San Diego and then to Mexico. We weren't able to stop by, but I was able to see some of the murals but not in detail. After that day, I've always had a great curiosity for the park.
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?
Denya's Blog:
Denya picked San Francisco State University. She plans on going there next fall. Denya thinks, "San Francisco State is about our thirst for knowledge. " I agree with her to a certain degree. I think our thirst for knowledge is a great thing and when you find the right school for you, it will definitey satisfy, hopefully, your every need. Education is highly important for me and seeking higher education has always been a dream of mine and my family's.
