eek 10 Day 19

Today was storytelling day. I could not believe that I was able to fool the class with my two truth and one lie. I examine what I did to fool the class. Three choices were I was in the movie What Got to do with it; I was born in Atlanta Georgia; and My favorite T.V. show is American Idol. The majority of the people picked that I was born in Atlanta Georgia. The lie was that I was born in Atlanta Georgia. Most people believe that I am from the south. I game played. I said a truth that is hard to believe and said a lie that most people would not question or doubt.

Week 9 Day 17

Today was an interesting day. We had a chance to give Jimmy another performance review. Over the years Jimmy asked for honest feed back on his teaching style. He suggested students to really write their likes and dislikes. I guessed he understand the importance of critic. So it is good to know he can appreciate criticism on both sides giving them and taking them.

On the teacher evaluation form the students are the critic. Some students know their power on the evaluation and use it. If they do not care for an instructor, they let the department know. If students like the instructor, students let the department.

In regards with Jimmy's teaching style, I find if I show up to class on time and give an effort I will get alone with Jimmy. I recalled missing a day or coming to class late my grade was reflected on the project.

I find Jimmy honors effort. The worked does not have to be the best just work hard show up on time for class. You will pass.

Week 8 Day 16

Today Jimmy lecture was on briefs. Jimmy showed a slide show with a number briefs professional designers are using. During the lecture Jimmy said it is very important to be able to write very well. I guess no errors. Briefs helps designers stay on tract. It gives the designer direction. The class homework assignment was to write a brief on the poster project.

Week 8 Day 15

In concept development, Jimmy really encourages class discussion. People who enjoy talking having a voice really have an opportunity to talk in this class. Jimmy gives us the opportunity to openly discuss his action such as why does he have us change sitting arrangement. Jimmy went around the classroom pulling information out of most of the students. I wonder if some people are struggling having a voice because some home environment maybe structured where children are deny a voice. I guessed something to think about. I grew with freedom to express my idea. As an early child I really got into adult conversation. It allowed me to feel comfortable to talk to nearly anyone until I became aware of grammar, and diction. So making the transition from child and adult conversation was not too difficult for me. So as a young adult I was pretty out spoken. Over the years I learned to quiet down and allow others to express themselves because everyone has something to give.

Week 7 Day 13

Today we played a gamed that required focus and awareness of the direction the information is coming from. A skill that is helpful. It appeared the class really stumbles in the multi tasking having to say one thing on the right side and another on the left side.

On a personal note I left seeing if I pushed through the uncomfortable feeling and stay with the project I can regain focus again.

Week 6 Day 12

In the serious of short clips the last one Paul Scher was really impressionable to me. She talked about doing something new moving out of her comfort zone. The statement really gets my attention as a person. I feel like I have progress by daring to be uncomfortable to explore new ventures and environments. I feel my experience at California State University Los Angeles has helped me to walk through the unknown territories to reach the other side.
