#2 Single Story 2011

" Danger of a Single Story"

1: what does it mean to have a single story about a place or community?

what I think it means to me that theres storys about how people look at something and get something thing in there head without getting to know the whole thing.

2: Describe a single story you have heard about your community. What is missing from that story? how can people learn more about that community?

What I heard about my community is that the schools on the eastside of town are bad that we wont leran anything, but the thing that is missing form this story is that people dont know whats going on over here and we are really doing good over here and making good grades. And people can learn more about whats going on over here by coming and looking at what we are doing and how the eastside school are changing.

3: Describe a single story you have heard about another community. How did you learn about that story? How can you find out more about that community?

In north Austin there where saying that its nothing but good over there and that they have the best schools. And I learned about this community was that some of my friends were telling me about it. I can learn more about this community by asking people that live around or live in that community.

4: How can a game let players know about many stories about a place or community?

I think that by making a game that people play will let them know about what is really going on over there but the person who is making that game has to be part of that community or place to really let people whats going on so that it will nothing but facts.
