Appendix H. Reflection questions for mentees to submit as part of earning their 5% bonus marks for the first-year course
In this bonus assignment, you were asked to take a picture, craft a written narrative, a title, and
finally submit your work to be turned into a poster, which will be placed in a virtual gallery, instead of the live exhibit as originally planned.
In light of our closed campus, to fully complete this bonus assignment, we ask that you upload to D2L your answers to the following questions. Imagine that you are being asked these questions by an interested passerby, curious about your work, your process, and what you’ve created.
Marking scheme:
Photo & description (5 %)
Answer these five interview questions below (5 marks, 1 for each question) and upload them to the D2L course shell.
Due date: 2 weeks before the final class this semester
Interview Questions:
Please answer in clear, pre-planned, thoughtful, edited, and polished ways.
- What do you hope your community will take away from your photograph and description?
- What do you hope X/Ryerson executives and decision-makers take from your photograph/description and turn into policy or new programming?
- What was the best part of working with upper-year students? What did you learn from your mentor?
- How will what you learned from working in a mentorship relationship in this PhotoVoice process inspire or mentor others on their thriving journeys?
- What does thriving mean to you now? (In this context, at this moment, after this full semester, and after having completed PhotoVoice).
