What does the clip say to you?

What questions would you ask?

Why show the clip at this time of the project?

so it helps us as a class to become one when we are in groups and to work together and learn that if we be individuals in a group working alone then we wont make anything good out of it but if we are a group then we could do something and get something good out of it.

WHERE THE HELL IS MATT?

Matt has travelled around the worl to some poor and some rich countries, he has been dancing around and he has been bringing people together as one community, and could be teaching us that as a group we can be one. he sent this video to his family and they put it on his website, people found the video and had sent it around to everybody around the world, and then was sponsord and had been travelling around the world to countries to do this type of thing as what he thinks could be in very good use to bring people together.

 Today in CST/ist we had seen 3 images. for the 3 images that I have seen, I have learnt that whatever you say about an image could not be true e.g when I saw the first image I thought bad things about the image, then when i saw the 2nd image, I thought good things but then it turned out that the first image was good and the 2nd image was bad because the boys was a foster child and had been abused, and the first image the Africans are happy in the way they are living.

I learnt that when you are thinking about an image and you are asked to describe that image and write down what comes to your head, I learnt that you should always think in really deep, and not always think the things you could see, because even thought it looks like that it would not be the correct answer that you thought it could of been.

• What influences your values about issues relating to your life? That the news I hear, I want to be true, that if I was ever put on the news I want it to be true and if I found out they had put things that are very much false then I would go mad and sue the company that had been telling lies about me.

• Do you ever compare images/values presented by the media to those of the bible? If so why? If not why not? yes I do compare the images and values presented by the media to those of the bible because, I know that the people in the church have a good comment to say about these images and values and can describe the differences from us and from what is showing in that image.

• Has this project challenged you to examine your values? Why / Why not? Yes it has, this project has been teaching me how to describe an image, and in thinking deep, not just thinking, but what you deeply think about that image, because if you see a picture of a boy with a game, you could think it is a good thing, but really it is a boy that has been abused by his parents and is a foster child.

• How do you feel the media portrays social justice issues?  The social justice issue of what my group is doing is that the false things that are being said on the articles, and that it can affect a lot of people in the community and put a bad name to the subject (person) that the media is talking about.

• Has it been difficult to find articles on social justice issues why/why not? Yes it has been because of the ways that the articles have been written and you don’t know whether that article is true or not, but in that way you would find another article on that and see which article is true or not.

• Do you think that the media operates from a moral framework? Give evidence by using your research. I think that the media does not work on a moral framework because they would write anything they can to just sell their article to the people and make money.

A  critique is when you are talking about the main areas in an article and it is built up in 4 different areas, you describe what you are talking about and you talk about the amin parts of that article or video and see whether that article or video is telling the truth or not.
2. Outline the FOUR stages in a critique.

The four main parts in a critique are as follows in order:

An introduction
A summary – summarising the article and on what it is about
An analysis – your own anaylysis about the article.
An evaluation – evaluate what you think about the article and see where it is a positive, negative or both.

A critique ca be either positive, negative or both, because each article could have its positive side of the story.

4. Critique the accuracy of the following articles:

the beijing olympics: Are they a trap?

the information about this video is very much false because number one, the olympics hasn’t been around for a thousand years, and secondly, the chinese would never do that because that would not be in the spirit of the olympics, and what they are saying about the chinese is not fair because they are like teasing the chinese, because they are saying that they are a poor country and they want to get back at every country that are going to be in the olympics. I say that this story they have done is just the biggest load of crap i have ever heard because we all know that the chinese would never do something as stupid as that.

1. Name the issue? Church Agrees to Review Claim of Sexual Abuse

2. Describe one media account of this issue? the issue is talking about how their there had been a sex abuse by a priest, on how a person named anthony jones was sexually assulted by father terrance goodall.

3. Where did you get this media account from? i got it from the Sydney Morning Herald

4. Is this media account correct or reliable? Why?  yes it is because it tells the truth and there are interviews about it, and when i was reading the article i was really into it, and when i finished reading th article i was very in terested in this story, so i had chosen this article

5. Where else might you be able to find more information about this issue? nine msn

Today on the 28th of july 2008, we had a group homework due, and what we had to do is find an article from the past 2 weeks or so, and change 3 things about it, when everone was talking, it was bit hard to understand because both sides of the article sound the same, but there are area that are different, but you don’t know which one could be true. and also during the lesson, mr hayes got our old groups and gave us back our marks and i was very happy with what got, when I heard all of the articles, i learnt that people change the truth to get peoples attention, and that things that are said could just not be true.

1. Has your image of Jesus changed during the project? How or Why not?

not really because jesus will always be the exact same peron but we know that we can represent jesus in many different ways and to show that jesus is someone that stays with us every where we go.

2. What do you feel is the best way to portray an image of Jesus and why?

i think the best way to portray jesus is by when we are at mass, we know that jesus is the son of God and at a hospital because we know that jesus is a healer and heals all of the sick and the injured.

3. What have you enjoyed about the project so far and what would you do differently?

things that i have enjoyed so far in this project is the different types of time or periods that jesus has been known into and all the ways that jesus can be represented in like for example when people are following jesus’s footsteps and believe in God and his son jesus.

1) What form of medium (music, art or literature ) allows you to best connect with Jesus and Why ?

art because you draw things that you think would best describe jesus in his way and showing the love and something that he is doing to help others and to send out a message about jesus.

2) Why has Jesus been portrayed in so many different ways throughout history?

jesus has been portrayed in so many different ways because everyone thinks different things about jesus or by what they know about jesus from there religion.

3) How is Jesus portrayed at Parramatta Marist?

because he is like a shepered that looks after the sheep and as us brother in parramatta marist we are all brothers and we all love eachother as brothers.

4) What artistic time period do you think best represents your image of Jesus and why?

the romanesque because that was the time when religious buildings were built and they made glass window drawings of jesus using different colours as you see in some of the chruches here in australia.

5) Identify one image of Jesus that appeals to you. What do you like about the representation?

the way jesus helped the others and how he healed the people that were badly injured and could of died.

6) What factors currently shape your image of Jesus and why.

the way he acts, prays to his father, bes kind to every body
