Final Podcast

Final Podcast

I find it interesting but also very difficult to make a real podcast. It is hard to sit in a room alone and attempting to speak like I am talking to a crowd. Though I do not think my podcast is exceptional i do believe I hit the necessities of the project. One thing I forgot was to change the names of the literacy narrative authors. Overall, the project is interesting but it is very time consuming to edit the…

Making Podcast Script

To change my paper into a podcast, i had to spend time trying to cut out extra details which were not imperative to make sure I do not go over the time limit. As well, many words needed to be changed so it sounds like I am speaking to a crowd rather than just reading my paper in a boring way for 10 minutes.  By doing this, I am hoping to make my paper seem like a discussion of ideas…

Project 3 Revisions and Intro

Project 3 Revisions and Intro

  INTRO/REVISED PARAGRAPH 1 Is modern schooling a system which allows for all to represent their individual forms of intelligence equally? No. The rate of learning and development of intelligence is one which is not constant for everyone. People learn at different speeds about different things at different times, which can pose a problem to institutions and schooling districts who have set rules and guidelines in which education fits into. The role of sponsorships for students such as schools is…

Draft Conclusion, Project 3

Claims -Though with reading, many people tend to find themselves in the outsider characteristic when they struggled with learning how to read. -Based off of their direct relationship here, it can be expected that there would be some similarities between outsider narratives which stem from either reading or writing. -One of the cultures which is popular in outsider narratives is that of being placed in special programs to assist those who struggle with literacy. yes my paper does add to…

Paragraph Revisions, Project 3

Old Reading is a topic in which many students who write literacy narratives tend to focus on. It is a vital part of education as well as a stepping stone to higher knowledge. Though with this, many people tend to find themselves in the outsider characteristic when they struggled with learning how to read. The students felt that they developed slower than their peers and through that felt like they were different. Kids “constructed themselves as a stranger in a…

Revision Plan, Project 3

Revision Plan, Project 3

My particular project, based on what my peers and myself believe, includes the affirm and add aspect of “engaging in the conversation”. Though it contains this, I do not believe that it has enough of that. My paper needs to directly reference the original papers more rather than just using them to prove a point. I have to be more specific on what my narratives are revealing and relate that back to Alexander, Williams, or Brandt. My peers claim that…

Reflecting on Learning

Reflecting on Learning

Part 1   Introduction What I changed from my first to second draft in the introduction is adding more personal statements as well as making my claim more clear. The opening sentence went from being how discourses effect people to a more general and eye catching sentence in the final about the differences of human cultures. I added more introduction to the sources which I used in the final draft by stating more of their beliefs and providing more background…

Relevant Narratives in Rising Cairn

Relevant Narratives in Rising Cairn

To me, an interesting narrative topic in Rising Cairn is the outsider narrative. This narrative is not one of the most common ones but I believe it holds great importance due to the fact that people who feel they are outsiders do not get to take part in the same ways of learning as others. These people don’t believe they fit in and as a result it can hurt their academic standing. Possible Useful Narratives Include -Abbey Small -Ben Lui…
