It’s unfortunate that race and culture stops people from having freedom of speach and makes it ok for people to be bullied online or physically. #EDUC307
Lesson 13 really helped me understand the importance of understanding media and where it is coming from, who it is coming from and motives behind the content. #EDUC307
@nfreedman007 This is a great reminder. I think it is important to note that not all people have reliable sources even if they are popular and well known. Bloggers often can be bias without indenting to. #EDUC307
@f_naebk Yes, 9 elements of digital citizenship can be used in so many ways other than online. It is great that a lot of topic in this course can be applied to our personal lives. #EDUC307
I would agree that social mdia crated a new type of platform for new and spreading information around from credible educations, to personal stories, to things that might not be true, but we have found trust in the info on media. #Lesson12#EDUC307
It is interesting to thing about how videos become viral. I think it is great advice from Juan to think about who is producing, the language, and content makes a difference. #Lesson13#EDUC307
People are very critical of Disney movies because how they portray them. It is important that movie corporations do their research to accurately rep the history/laws of different cultures. It like spreading rumors and not being able to clean them up. #EDUC307#Lesson11
The animals voices in 90's Disney movies, is it intentional that hey have specific tone to indicate a group of people? I am not sure if that was the purpose or if it is just blindly assuming stereotypes. #EDUC307#Lesson11
What age is it appropriate to point out to kids things like, Arial is using only her beauty for a man, Mulan should have been killed for joining the army, or Bell is abused but still finds love in the Beast? #Lesson11#EDUC307
"Mickey Mouse Monopoly" definitely points out some traits about Disney that aren't the best but we need to remember they are talking about 90's Disney movies. If we see how Disney has evolved there are some really good stories being made currently. #Lesson11#EDUC307
I can see that Disney is trying to create a healthy way of representing race and all types of people. Just like many other nondisney tv shows and movies, producers are evolving the content shown. 90's Disney is not the same at 2018 Disney. #Lesson11#EDUC307
I love that story telling has been a way to pass on generations how women have fought for respect and how have become stronger leaders. #EDUC307#Lesson10
I feel like we still see each stage of feminism today. There is always new ways of identifying equalization of genders, different responsibilities between men and women, and learning about issues people of color are dealing within each part of the world. #Lesson10#EDUC307
@lblack21 @patriciaz307 @katia_kp1 That is true, I have, and I think adults forget that children do not have the same comprehension or life experience. So Disney movies are really just play and fun for majority of kids to a certain age. #Lesson11#EDUC307
What is the purpose of having gender roles, it just causes a competition and putts people in a box. We are all human and are capable of the same things. ##EDUC307#Lesson10
It breaks my heart that some women can't speak about hardships they have had towards them without getting shamed by their community. Learning about these harsh consequences reminds me that I am privileged to have, what I think, are basic rights. #EDUC307#Lesson10
The protest NeverAgain to fight again shootings and gun control reminded me of the Viral Effect. It is amazing how a nation can come together. I believe this protest couldn't have happen so quickly if we didn't have such a connection to media. #Lesson10#EDUC307
@aledim16 Yes! This is one of the ways Disney encourages a strong, confident, and smart lead who is a woman even if the story isn't 100% accurate to Chinese history. Mulan gives good example of what people can accomplish with determination. #EDUC307#Lesson11
