4c Reflection

1. Who is your classmate, what is the component category, what is the name of the choice?

• My classmate is Frank, component category b: Beaches, we both talked about Half Moon Bay
  

2. What is something similar this classmate said about the choice?

• Frank and I both mentioned the fact that both beaches we compared were on the California Coast, we also both talked about the fact that Half Moon Bay rarely has gorgeous weather, (apparently Frank mentioned there is a 69 degree Fahrenheit average)
  

3. What is something different this classmate said about the choice?

• Frank seemed to bring up a point that I may have missed - he presented the idea that the beaches are also a habitat for a variety of wild animals, and was wondering if sharks were a prominent problem in both beaches
  

4. How would you relate this to Freire's ideas regarding dialogue? For example, you went in thinking one idea, your classmate had a different idea. What new idea emerged from this process?
I think from sharing different ideas with your classmates you get a new understanding of the way that people think. By sharing/comparing/contrasting ideas, you realize how similarly you think like other people, but also how differently you can think. You can merge the two ideas together and get a whole new understanding and aspect of the topic you choose.
