Susie Pohl Week 3

Right now we are talking about case studies and how it's important to "identify characters, analyze the environment, design a plan to understand what is happening and compare the experience of the characters to your own" (Komives, 2009). I chose this image of the Broadway play of the Lion King because while viewing a play, it's important to recognize characters and the different settings that they are in. Often times, we will connect to a play because we can relate with what it happening on stage. Taking all of these into account helps us understand the overall performance, which is similar to a case study, in which we need to understand everything clearly to get an overall picture of thinking about a resolution and final product.

I chose this image because case studies often talk about ideas that affect our whole society such as inequality,  environmental issues and social injustice . It says that case studies are not mean to "lead to one correct answer, but to provide opportunities to apply new knowledge and practice analyzing the issues from different perspectives" (Komives, 2009, p. 83). I think that the Peace Corps tries to give opportunities in many different countries that opens people's minds to different perspectives. It also tries to combat problematic issues by sending volunteers to help make a change in society overall.
