Tell Me About Your Assumptions
 |
| Assumptions About My Family Assumptions are things that we believe are true, without any proof. They can mislead people into believing things that are not true. This mini-comic represents an aspect of my life that many people have assumed about my siblings and me, while we were growing up. I was tasked with the job of creating this mini-comic. As you gaze upon this comic, I want you to think about your daily routine, think about the people you interact with, and even those you just pass on the street. Now that you've thought about it, I have a question for you. What are some assumptions that you have about the people you see? Comment your thoughts below. |
The main assumption I have about people is their lives are not as complicated as mine; but as mentioned in one of the posts, you never know what’s happening in someone else household.
ReplyDeleteHow might you use comics as a pedagogical strategy to explore challenging concepts?
ReplyDeleteI would use comics as a pedagogical strategy to explore challenging concept through the use of visuals in comics. Where some words may be difficult to understand or say to certain audience, visuals have a way of conveying the message in silence and/ or with little words. Also. with the use of creating my own characters I can re-tell a story in comic form and making it more relatable to students, so they can better understand.
DeleteHow might you have a family storytelling night with comics?
ReplyDeleteI would have a family storytelling night with comics by three stations:
DeleteOne station would be a library area with different genre of comic for families to read and explore. This station would help families to become a bit familiar with comics and help them generate ideas.
The second station would be a make your own comic, where families members can work together or separate in making a comic. In this station families will have the option to use paper and writing utensils or a computer to construct their comic.
The third station would be the display area where families can share their comics with other families present.
The first impression counts, it is a phrase I used to hear in my country, and still hear in my community here. I used to think people cared much if one wore clothing with known brands, if those brands show a kind of status. That has always bothered me. I think people assume about me when I do not wear those kinds of clothes or not look too fashionable.
ReplyDeleteTiffany, what did you do for these assumptions made in your school did not affect your day?
