Buddy’s Perspective: What reason’s do you have for thinking that you are B.U, B.E, M.E or E.E with regards to
how empowered you feel? **
I think they definitely were up to E.E because I learned lots about SCAD and the mistreatment of animals- I thought
mistreatment of animals had ended already and it didn’t happen anymore. Also, they did lots of research and I think they can
influence everyone.

Personal Opinion: What reason’s do you have for thinking that you are B.U, B.E, M.E or E.E with regards to how
empowered you feel? **
I think Im E.E because I see peoples face when we tell them about our issue and how they feel when they see our photos,
Sometimes its not the kids but the teachers to like Mrs. Jennifer her face was astonished and im happy that people understand
why we choose this topic.

Teacher Comment: I agree Franci, I think that all those who attended your animal mistreatment seminars will definitely be
empowered to stop themselves and others from contributing to animal mistreatment.

your ability to discover and understand different perspectives? **
I think they areright in the spot they should be in because I think they wrote a story from the dog’s prespective, and they can
learn from their own perspective.

to use what you have learned to think about the future? **
The preferable future for this group is probably going to be no more mistreatment of animals. And I think their realistic action plan for
their family is really realistic. They dion’t need to raid a circus and arrest the owner or something like that, but they can simply avoid the
circus and they can also not ride the elephants in the streets of BKK and not go to all those farms and shows that mistreat animals. h

Personal Opinion: What reason’s do you have for thinking that you are B.U, B.E, M.E or E.E with regards to your ability to
use what you have learned to think about the

future? ** well ya I think I can explain my vision for preferable future I think that what everybody wants is for the animals to pass on
generation to generation and keep on living and not be extict and I think my family action plan would be not to ride elephants on the
street and not go to animal circuses and just do the step that I advised for others.

Skills Used throughout the Exhibition Process

Time Management ** Locating and understanding information from different sources. ** Recording and
organizing information in logical ways that other people can understand. ** Using key questions to guide my
research. ** Listening to others and sharing helpful information. ** Working Respectfully and cooperatively with
peers. ** Participating in decision making and accepting my share of the responsibility.

Which of the above skills did you use well during exhibition? How did you demonstrate this skill?

Participating in decision making and accepting my share of the responsibility. I think that this is defenitly my strongest
skill because I took my share when it came to the action plan and I finished everything with my name on it on the action
plan.

Which of the above skills did you improve during exhibition? How did this happen?

Using key questions to guide my research because there were many key questions during my exhibition and I had to follow
and answer and since we had many I got a lot of practice during the exhibition.

Which of the above skills do you need to keep working on? Why?

Time Management because sometimes I was messing around with group members and not thinking of what still had to be
done. And I think Im just not there yet.
