Phase I: Who Am I? What's My Place?


 * What __really__ makes up your identity?

What makes me, me is that I am involved in athletics, I have two older sisters, and the people that I hangout with.


 * What __really__ makes up your sense of place?

your friends and family makes up my sense of place. Being a part of a community that is bigger than me, and I feel like I am bein myself and that I belong.


 * What roles do your identity and sense of place play when you work with others in a group project?

I take charge and make sure that the project gets done. I am the leader of the group and makes sure it looks good in the end.


 * What are the qualities that you bring to the GLIP conversation that will help you make a contribution to your global group?

It will make me aware of problems in different areas that I have not been exposed to.


 * What is one local problem (where you live) that you believe needs to be addressed? Suggest some steps could you take to try to solve it?

Hunger and homelessness is a problem where I live. There are people walking on the street that don't have enough food. We could have more food drives at my school.

they need a sense of leadership and a good conscience. They need to know between right and wrong and have the strength to get things done without getting behind.
 * Finally, some problems have been around for a long time. What qualities do you think a person must have to step up and try to solve them?

Phase II: Sense of Place

Use these questions to help you determine which picture shows someone else why your “place” is so special to you.
 * Does a scenic picture represent the beauty you believe that your town has?
 * Does a picture of a group of people represent and show a warmth and friendliness that your town has?
 * Does a statue or building convey the feeling of history that makes your place important and unique?
 * Is there a cultural event that represents the values of your home location?

What are your initial thoughts about how your image addresses the questions above? Later, you will be working with the members of your group to create a travel package that includes visits to each group member's home location (see Phase II)

Phase III: Identify Local Issue:

What is your local issue?

Hunger.

What can you do to be address the issue?

I am a part of a charity league and I have served food for homeless and hungry people that can't provide for themselves. There are alot of people that come for food and most times the line goes around the building and down the street. It is a fairly big issue in my community.

What is the global impact of your local issue? It cost a lot of money to provide that much food just at my location.
