Reflection about our field trip to see Albany Park Theater Project’s performance of Home/Land

This week, the students have posted their thoughts about the play, Home/Land, that we watched in Chicago at the Albany Park Theater Project’s Laura Wiley Theater on Feb. 11, 2012. The students have connected themes from the play to our course goals, which are:

Transformational Goal: to enhance students’ global and sociological understanding of children’s experiences, and their knowledge about how to get involved in promoting the vitality of children in our interconnected world.

Outcome related to Voice and Action: Students will increase their ability to speak articulately about children’s issues, and learn how to get involved with organizations in order to benefit children.

Outcome related to Power and Inequality: Students will develop their understanding of how dimensions of power and inequality shape children’s opportunities and lead to advantages or disadvantages across the life course.

Outcome related to a Global Perspective: Students will expand their abilities to think about children’s experiences at a global level scale.

Outcome related to Diversity and Trends: Students will expand their abilities to discuss diversity and trends in children’s experiences globally.

Enjoy the posts!
