Are there any differences between your relationships with your family and your friends?

I’m closer to my friends then my family because I see my friends more often. 

Are you more comfortable around your friends then you are with your family? Why or why not?

I’m more comfortable with friends because we are closer. I fell like they won’t judge me and I feel like my family would judge me. 

Where do you see yourself in your family? Do you think you are excepted aka are you an equal?

I feel excepted because its family, they are supposed to be there for you.  But also in a way I don’t because theres a lot of drama and hatred.

lease create and share insights on the process of taking the survey. How did it feel to take it? Were there any questions that made you stop and think? Without necessarily listing those questions - what were some of the commonalities between the questions that made you think or feel deeply? If you decided not to take it, what was that like?


The quiz was fine, I didn't think it was as bad as it was portrayed to be. However, there were a few questions that made me think twice, and they were mainly the ones that brought memories to mind. Some of them I felt insulted to ask because I felt like they were personal, but I remembered not to take it personally and that it is confidential. 

Since our class video is missing, I have watched Esther's video instead. I thought it was interesting that they chose a student to play the role of teacher. However, I do remember what my role in the film was. I was basically an extra; I was student acting rudely towards the teacher. I had no lines but I improvised what a bad student would do by texting, not doing work and talking to others during class. Our message shares the same message as Esther's film. It was basically that in a classroom, the students really have the power because we out number the teacher. We respect the teachers because that is what we have been raised to do, we are programmed to respect teachers since we are in preschool. But as we get older, we take advantage of weak teachers and over power them. In our film, we just kept disobeying the quite, unassertive teacher who was trying to make us open up to him. We continued to be rowdy until he gave up and left the class. In Esther's film, the teacher seems to be a struggling alcoholic. He gets distracted by drinking and texting while grading tests and just falls asleep. The next day, he can't control the class no mater how hard he tries so the next day he gives up and sleeps while the students continue to lose control. He then is sick of it and tells the students about themselves and also leave (or at least that’s what I think happened again the sound was off) 

a. your personal contribution

b. your analysis of the message and tone of your section's film

c. contrast the film with the savior/teacher films we watched clips of

d. theorize (explore thoughtfully and powerfully) the connection between salvation and education/schooling in our culture

Teacher: An ex sergeant who comes to a messed up school to straighten out the students. The students of Mulberry High are rowdy and troublesome, all the other teachers are scared of them and have given up on teaching them. The principle, who sees the children as delinquents has asked this new teacher to please work at their school to get the kids in order. Un like the movie cliché, the principle has hope for the students and wants them to succeed but he is frustrated that they choose not to do the work so he hires this new teacher to put them in line. The new teacher just sees this job as a pay check and is a bit power hungry so he is looking forward to bossing the children around, but when he arrives in class he realizes the job is much more challenging them he expected. The students are scared of him because he is a big man and he yells, but they are tough kids and continue to fight back. After the first few days the teacher see the kids won’t listen and he snaps at them. He says they wont amount to anything and that they wont make it in society, which causes the student so open up. They yell back at the teacher, e
