  • Has the status of your issue changed since the last time you checked it?  Explain your answer.

No it has not changed since the last time I checked it is still in the acknowledged category and they have not given me further updates on how they are going to fix it.

  • On Edublog #1 you were asked to predict whether or not SeeClickFix would fix the problem you reported.  Did you find that your prediction came true?  Explain your answer.

Yes I am starting to believe that they will just not fix my issue bc it has been more than a week since they have reported back to me on my issue  and i’m starting to feel like they will just never fix it.

  • Are you satisfied with the result of the issue you reported?  Explain why, or why not.

No because they aren’t fixing it fast enough like they are just taking their time on this issue I reported like I thought they would fix it faster and not take their time.

  • Do you think that SeeClickFix is a useful tool for helping people fix problems in their communities?  Explain your answer.

No because every time they get an issue they should immediately look into that issue and if they are going to actually fix it then they should fix it immediately.

  • If you could change or improve SeeClickFix, what would you do?  Explain your answer.

they should have better communication with the people who have reported an issue like give day to day updates         and actually tell them when they will fix it.

  • Which class project do you think was best able to help the people who resisted an oppression gain agency:  SeeClickFix or the May Day March?  Explain your answer.

May day march because you actually did a march and resisted an oppression that you believed was wrong we may have not made a change but at least we tried by getting up and doing something about it.

  • Do the results of the SeeClickFix and May Day projects imply that one form of resistance is better than another?  Explain your answer.  

Yes maybe because it may show how like not really getting up and marching just doing your resisting sitting down may not work as well as getting up and protesting for what you believe in.

  • Describe how the 9th grade students are tracking the progress of the issue we reported using stickies and posters.  What do each posters mean?  

we are tracking our issues by three posters Acknowledged, open, and closed and what they mean is that acknowledged means they have seen your issue and they will consider fixing the issue and open means you have made an account and posting your issue mostly everyone started with that poster but closed means they will just never fix your issue.

yes they did change my status because they actually viewed my issue and considering to fix it.

Do you think Colonization, the Encomienda System, and the African Slave trade still influence people’s lives today?  Explain your answer.

 

Yes, because people may believe the those things are right to do but their not because it’s wrong but other people may not think so. But like who knows if they do then we might have to do something about it.

I live in Oakland.The neighborhood I grew up in is lit and noisy.I am a mean person if you piss me off but if you are my true friend I will be there for you through it allI don’t you have to ask someone about that but to be honest i think i am a good friend to other people.My aspects are that I am a tomboy and also that I am a really bad at focusing if I am around my friends

 

First, Dominant Narrative means people who has more advantage talking about you.I did not have a Dominant Narrative photo.I do not have any feeling towards it because I do not have a photo for it. Overall there is no photo about my Counter Narratives for mine.

 

Also Identity image is photo that describes you and who you are.I chose my family photo because I love them and they deserve to be in it. It made me feel happy that they got to be in  my class. Also I put my favorite artist in their and also they are so beautiful.

 

Overall If people knew me they know that I am very weird and also a little mean but I am worth being there.Telling the story of who I really am is important because you get to know my life and I am cool. What I learned in this unit is that all people are equal.
