This is a WHAT? _ This is a "WHAT" [2012-02-21]

Hello there, its me again talking about my class experience with my professor Jimmy moss. a week ago as a class we  have attend a guess speaker event in our campus, Cal state LA, with Kali Nikitas. Jimmy wanted us to share what we learn from her in the beginning of the class. So we sit in a big cycle and have Jimmy sit in the middle. I always likes how our professors will switch things around, so we don't get bored easily. so first half of the class period is talking about the event. To be honest I didn't enjoy discussion because there is just repeating what we did in the speech. an example is talking an exercise that we did in speech, taking three envelope and note cards, and writing our expectation in the future about three matters, Global, Professional, and Personal. so lot of repeat in first half discussion. on the second half of the class, there comes the fun part. Jimmy ask us to play a "Game", involving giving two object and one is named "What" and one is named "Who". and we sit in a cycle, from one person pass the object and telling the next person this is a "what" and the next person will reply as this is a "What?" and the person who hand-over the object will ask the pervious person and ask them this is a "What?" and going back to the first person who first start this game will answer this is a "What". This game is really complicated to be explain in language, even Jimmy have to demonstrate how this is done for us to understand how this game works. so we spend rest of the class playing this game. It is not as bad as only having the "What" but using both "What" and "Who" become really difficult, especially when they both meets. at first, I think this game is not fun at all, but as I get more involve with the game, I become more serious about this game. but what is the point of the game, I still don't get it. The best description I can think of maybe the "Cooperative game". That goes the whole class for today.
