REFLECTIONS: Week 9 & 10


Time flys when you're having fun...

Week 9:
Last week we learned about our advocacy projects and photo essays. We had a class discussion about advocacy on Tuesday. And on Thursday we talked about our photo essays and covered the ethics of photo taking. We also had to complete our first advocacy project assignment by Thursday, which was on our political/local representatives. For this project we had to research our political representatives and find out their contact information. This was pretty interesting to find all our representatives but some of them where pretty tricky to find. Overall, I found it very useful.

Week 10:
Dr. V was gone this week at the AAHPERD convention so our main focus was to complete our photo essays. I choose to do my photo essay on how technology can help the environment! It was pretty fun taking taking pictures throughout the week that related to my topic. Then I combined some of my photos into a collage to better represent what I was trying to show. Some of the main topics I photographed were access to online phone books and newspapers, virtual field trips, video conferencing, paying bills online and of course blogging. I was checking out other peoples photo essays and I thought they were pretty cool, overall I think everyone did a great job! I hope everyone had a good week off from classes! We'll see ya Tuesday=)
