Lilly Lutz Blog Post #30- God Grew Tired of Us Reflection Questions

What have you learned about Dinka culture? What markers from the film are representative of Dinka culture? Of American culture? What values do the Lost Boys hold? How do those values compare with your own?  I learned that they were a lot more communal then people are in the United States. People in the United States are a lot more individual then people in Africa and the boys were not used to that. A marker is when they were traveling in large groups and the people in the grocery store were freaked out by it.

The boys are religious like me, but they don't celebrate Christmas with the tree and Santa Claus. What questions and fears do the Lost Boys have about life in the U.S.? What questions and fears would you have if you were moving to a new place? What differences do you see between Dinka culture and American culture? What are some of the challenges the Lost Bo

Today in class we learned about how to interpret maps. We defined map scale, projection, meridian, longitude, parallel, latitude and prime meridian. We also learned what the role of map scale and projection in interpreting maps. A map scale is the level of detail and the amount of area covered on the map depend on its map scale. A map scale can be presented in three different ways, ratio or fraction scale, written scale or graphic scale. A map projection is a systematic transformation  of the latitudes and longitudes from the surface of the sphere into the locations on a plane. Maps cannot be created without map projections. A meridian is a circle of a constant longitude passing through a given place on earth's surface and the terrestrial poles. Longitude is the geographic coordinate that specifies the east-west position of a point on the Earth's surface. Latitude is the geographic coordinate that specifies the north-south position on the Earth's surface. Latitude i

Today in class we learned about mental mapping. We also learned about how geographers describe where things are and we defined mental maps and activity spaces. We also discussed three ways we use mental maps. Finally, we discussed how mental maps are used in human geography. A mental map is a personal visualization a spatial information. Its a map inside our minds. We use mental maps for a few different reasons. One of them is, finding our way from point A to point B. Another one is, organizing and storing information for future reference. Finally, a way to make a meaning, mental maps provide people with essential means of making sense of the world and recalling different information about human features and patterns of the Earth. I learned many things about what mental maps are all about and I learned that it can be very hard to create a map of something, but it can also be very easy.
