Assignment 4c

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

• I chose to compare my World Cities blog about San Francisco and Los Angeles with Sheena's blog (from Project 3, component A) about San Francisco and Los Angeles.  

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

• Sheena and I agreed on quite a few things including diversity, weather and stereotypes. Both of us explained the stereotypes of San Francisco and Los Angeles quite simlarly.

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

• Sheena pointed out in the section about differences between the cities that Los Angeles has more media and arts than San Francisco. I wouldn't necessarily agree. I would just say that the art in San Francisco takes on a different form than in Los Angeles. 

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?

There really isn't a right answer whether Los Angeles or San Francisco has more media and arts. It's a very subjective question with many different interpretations. Both Sheena and I have valid points on the subject, and different views on what exactly "media and arts" means.
