(ii) What is HAPPENING in the overall Photovoice?
(iii) How does your project relate to YOUR life?
(iv) Why does food insecurity exist at a State University?
(v) What can YOU DO about it?
B) At least one page that describes YOUR personal experience in this Photovoice process. You should include reflections on:
(i) What it was like for you to work on this topic in this group?
(ii) What specifically did you learn about YOURSELF from dialoguing with others about how this issue/problem/challenge affects you?
(iii) Has this experience contributed to your understanding of yourself as a civically engaged individual? If so, what?
(iv) Are there any limitations or concerns that you have about your participation in this process? Like what?
Writing tips:
• Try to include a catchy title that emphasizes your central thesis/argument.
• Try to grab the reader’s attention in the first line.
• Be clear about the argument you are making/the discussion you are presenting in your final essay and be sure it is linked to the issue/problem/challenge on which that you and your group focused and to which you sought to respond/to take action towards change.
• Take a position as you write (not just an opinion) that consists of facts put into well-informed content.
• Identify any counterarguments to the one you are taking, and refute them with facts and references from any outside sources.
• Avoid clichés, unsubstantiated generalizations, and vague wording.
• Use specific references and easy-to-understand data rather than abstraction.
• At the end, clearly restate your position and be sure to include the action(s) you propose that respond to the issue/problem/challenge towards change.
• End with a strong or thought-provoking line.
