Discussion Post
Continuing with this reflection piece, you will be asked again to frame your writing using the Reflection Wheel guides from the East (key and/or significant information) from the South (identify and share your emotional response or connection to these key points) AND from the West (self-reflect on why you find the material relevant) AND/OR the North (how do you see your attitudes and actions being affected moving forward) Please explicitly note the Wheel direction(s) you are speaking to in your response so I do not have to make any presumptions or guesses.
Finally, review the rubric before you officially submit your response.
Part I
i. Reflect on your personal engagement with the videos found on the "Where Are The Children" website. What did you learn from the survivors? How did hearing their stories make you feel? What questions do you still have?
ii. Who is Kim Wheeler? What were some of the challenges she faced as a child and how did she overcome them? How is she "breaking the cycle"?
Part II
