Participatory Practice: Course Analysis

Improved Essays
One of the things that I learned in this course about participatory practice is the involvement of the community during the project. The community plays a major role during its process since it will allow to analyze the needs and problems around it, at the same time, it will help to develop a better approach process that includes adaptation based on the cultural and religious background, and the socioeconomic situation. Moreover, by receiving the acceptance of the community, it will help to reach the individuals or groups that need it the most, and it will give more freedom to the personnel involved in the project.

    Napavine Jr. Sr. High School, just like every other educational institution, has multiple stakeholders with whom we must deal. The challenges we face are the close proximity of our small school to the majority of community members and parents, and the intimacy and long-term shared experiences between staff, parents and students. While this creates a large familial bond, like any family, issues arise when people on all sides find themselves in a situation that requires a decision that might negatively affect the perceived familial relationship. At Napavine, we have teachers, parents, community members and students who have been in the community for all of their lives; and, we have those same stakeholders who have not. Division between stakeholder…

    Entertainment Education Theory, is a strategy when the media message is purposely designed and implemented to entertain and educate to increase the audiences knowledge about an educational issue, shift social norms, create positive attitudes, and to change the behavior of individuals and communities. Another way to explain the entertainment education theory is that it contains content that is mostly educational but has incidental entertainment value, and content that is mostly entertaining but contains educational value. Topics that tend to use “edutainment” are teen pregnancy, immunization, substance abuse, etc. This theory can be used for public communication campaigns that want to see both, education and entertainment in their campaign. Entertaining people is an easy way to add learning, and it also gets more peoples attention.…

    We have chosen to use photovoice as the context to our strategy for expressing knowledge mobilization through blogs and art shows. Photovoice is a participatory action research strategy which is based on health promotion principles and the theoretical literature on education for critical consciousness, feminist theory, and a community-based approach to documentary photography. Photovoice has three main goals: to enable people to (1) record and represent their everyday realities; (2) promote critical dialogue and knowledge about personal and community strengths and concerns; and (3) reach policymakers (Wang, 2006 p. 147). We are using photovoice to demonstration the health needs of transgender individuals.…

    My Responsibility to America George Bernard Shaw once said, “We are made wise not by the recollection of our past, but by the responsibility of our future,” I believe he meant that it is not enough to know where we came from or how we got here; we must actively expand to maintain and improve our quality of life. As Americans, I believe, we need to participate in all aspects of life, respect ideals and people, and obey all established laws. As Americans, one of our responsibilities to America is participation. Participation may include lots of things such as your community, politics, and even your school. Participating in your community might be as little as helping someone across the street, or as big as setting up a local event.…

    PRA is widely used since it applies traditional methods by which communities share information, such as to map and sketch out their communities through participatory, optical methods. This method is effective because it is a quick and easy way to assess the needs of your community before starting your project. The PRA method is more so a set of qualitative data compared to quantitative data, meaning that it can be viewed as a set of attitude and conduct rather than a table with numbers. For example, the Food Talk Project brought together high school health students to gather community member’s involved in the food industry opinions on the local food system. This method allowed for students to become more knowledgable on what they were eating and helped them understand how food grows, which eventually led to a new program that adopted better…
