Creating and communication

This unit helped me break down the different types of humor that I would never think about when watching the show.

I used a scrap piece of paper to brainstorm my ideas before writing it down, this helped me create a structure and better understand what was going on. At times it was hard to express my ideas but i really tried to create a structure and different points to their popularity.

Core Competency Reflection

I can describe how satire, irony and/or allusion relates to (make a connection to another text or show). I did this when I described an allusion from the episode we watched when they used one of Scooby-Doo’s popular references as evidence to my statement.

I seek, develop and weigh options as demonstrated by the importance to the thesis. I tried to find the best evidence to support my original statement to prove why The Simpsons is one of the greatest shows.

I use evidence to make judgements or decisions as demonstrated in this when I talked about Homer having childish characteristics then gave the example of him not going to church.
