To me, when we were working in our "Barkadas" or groups, i felt most intuned with the activity. When working with my peers, it really allows me to get to know each and everyone a bit more each time. With me personally being the "clown" of the group, everyone seems to get a good laugh when we meet up, but don't get me wrong, I'm still hardworking and a devoted member of the group.
Anyways, while we were figuring out our community service project, we though about our audience and what type of people we would like to interact with and who we want to get our message to. So we thought "who better then High School Students that may get the chance to join our Bayan Community?" So with our target audiences being high school student, we began to think about how er were going to make this idea into action. So with everyone in the "Barkadas", we listed ideas and suggested themes and ways we could make this happen.
All these ideas and topics being brainstormed really brought our idea one step closer to becoming reality. The tough part of this process was firguring out how we could get our presence known in these high schools. So we had to think about how to get permission and knowledge of when to best present ourselves. Lastly, the part that felt most rewarding during this process was when i decided to explain our idea map to Ms. Abuan and when i did, she complemented our group with a "good job, you guys have everything though of".
Shut up.
ReplyDeleteHahahahahah, just kidding. Same with my group, dude! I am also very clownesque.
I'm glad that you are applying rhetorical questions to your community service project. That's wonderful - applying what we are learning in English to a "real world" problem. And you are running into genuine areas where you (and the rest of the class) will have to answer questions - there's no purely "correct" way to go about the project. Some strategies might be more effective than others, some less so. But we can't figure out what's best unless we begin asking ourselves these kinds of questions. This is exactly what happens when we ask research questions. Indeed, we are basically doing a "research project," trying to answer the question, how do we get folks to join Bayan?
