Reflective Writing 4.17.10

We explored waht Daniel Pink refers to as "Seeing the Big Piture". According to Pink, what seperates the long remembered from the quickly forgotten, is the ability to marshal these relationships into a whole whose magnificence exceeds the sum of its parts. So it is also in Symphony the boundary crosser, the inventor, and the metaphor maker all understand the importance of relationships. And in the Conceptual Age, it demands us to understand the relationships between relationships.

We analyzed the various positives and negatives that the students must feel in preparing for a performance. We then compared them to some of the feeling my collegeaues and I were experiening in preparation for our performances.

The outcomes was that we agreed that it challanged our pespectives we had concerning our students and help to identify with the negatives and positives they must be experiencing in preparing for a performance.

Conclusion: If you can see the big picture it would effect the way that we do what we do while we are doing it, in hopes that understanding the dynamic of relationships can foster a different outcome and perspective as we interact with our students.
