things to ponder from the seminar by mrs.Capaning



...i arrived very late during the seminar. But i read the ppt presentation that was uploaded in the elearn.I have learned the meaning of DEVCOM, the essence of my chosen course, the career, the power of communication, the activities we the students will experience, the difference between DEVCOM and MASSCOM, the two major of DEVCOM which is EDUCOM and DEVJOURN, etc.

She even gave an example about Photography. You've got great shots, very decieving pictures but if you don't know how to express your photos, explain what it is about that photo would be useless. You have to know how to explain and thats when communication starts.
And we must arrive early all the time:))... because if you will become a broadcaster or a DJ you have to be on time because the listeners or the viewers will wait.

What is community mapping for you based on your experience in the past 2 excercises? How do you think can it be applied to your community?



Entry #4


Community mapping for me based on my experience in the past 2 exercises is making a very specific and not complicated deign of the specific area we are assigned. It is a drawing done by hand not through computer. It is a drawing of various places around the area. Like our group we were assigned in Yacapin, Mabini, Pacana, and Tiano street. We walked around the area so we could determine every landmark we have to remember. Community mapping is not only based on how nice it is drawn or the creatuvity but it is also based on how accurate it may be. It can be applied in many ways. If you are lost and you don't know where you are going te map can help. It will also allow you to determine which part of the area is greatly in need. Example the area needs a basketball court which maam rivera gave as an example. Or how about a health center, evacuation center, gymnasium, school, water, shelter, etc. It can also be applied in times of disaster. Community mapping is very important no matter how small the area can be.
