The last class that I entered is we learn about the rest of the rule of ten and this time the usage of learning is based on the video that Sir Mark has choose and all the video is practically easy to understand and all of us has been asked to comment or think about the video thah he has showed to us.
And for today blog, he asked us to give a comment about one of the video that has been showed. The video is about a man who call a security company to talk to the boss trough the receptionist. However, the lady (the receptionist) ask Larry (the man) why he want to talk to the boss but, Larry does not want tell the lady as he claim it between the boss and him. Until Larry finally hung up and he still don't want to tell what he want with the boss.
In my opinion, what Larry did is right as a client he just want to share any problem with the boss not with the receptionist. However, the receptionist has to ask as it one of her duty as she has to make sure that any phone calls that go through her is not a prank call. besides, she is paid for that, if she does not do her job properly, I believe others will replace her.
Nevertheless, I guess Larry should see the boss personally if he does not want any one to know about is as he could talk to the boss face-to-face. Besides, he also don't have to worry about the receptionist asking him what he want with the boss. Although, the process might take a long time where he has to make an appoinment first and confirm it before he could see the boss but, I think it worth unless he actually call just for a useless thing.

The Rule of Ten (superstition)
"TIPS of CONTROLLING SADNESS ARE PATIENTS, PACE yourself and PROUD of who you are INCLUDING a nice VACATION for yourself"
The word above is about the rule of ten that I learn in my previous class which are stands for Topic, Content, Source, Audience, The rhetorical function, Purpose, Perspective, Positioning, Impact and Visual literacy. The rule of ten is used when us want to comment or criticize an opinion or article. In my opinion, it is a very good step where it teach us how to make perhaps a very good comment or criticize on something.
In the class, the example that Sir Mark use is superstition. Where all of us has been asked to choose any superstition that we know and write a comment about it. The superstition that I choose is "If a black cat jump over a dead body, the corpse will 'alive' again. We learn on how to built a topic based on the title that we choose and it's better if we make a general statement before we go to other part of the title.
It's really interesting as we learn how to make a better comment as compared before this. I'm not saying that we are not that really learning before this but, with this rule of ten make me more understand on how to make better comment on something. Besides, I could understand more as we choose our own title as it make us more understand about what we are trying to learn that day.
When we move to content, we has been asked to not just rephrase the title but perhaps to make a new statement based on the title that we have choose earlier. So, it something like this, "Many old folks believe that if a black cat jump over a corpse, the corpse will come back to live". After that, we go to the next part, source, where we should state where we know about the title and after we have identify the source, we think about who is the audience.
Second last, we think of one or more about the rhetorical function about what are the reason why the superstition exist and last but not least, the purpose of why the superstition is exist or being told by the elders. With the help of the rule of ten, I believe that it could help me in built a good comment on an article later on.

Introduction of Critical Literacy (CL) - COM 2533
Critical Literacy (CL), in my opinion quite interesting topic to be learn about. Although I like to think about something but maybe not deeper like CL. Anyway I can't wait to learn more about it, perhaps it could change the way I see the world. Today learning is about the origins of it where it comes from Roger Sperry. However, another origins is from ancient Greek as Socrates make the first start of math instead of believing the Gods of the moon and the sun at that time. It really new to me as I never thought that before we could go down deeper about something it quite essential (I guess) to know about it history.

Another interesting topic today is the learning of how we should use our left and right brain appropriately. The way it been describe is in interesting way through story and ask for others opinion on how to differentiate how to using left and right brain properly. Both left and right brain functions are different so if one people does not use both equally, they may turns out to be two different people with two different identity which in result may make both party either fell apart or friends.

The importance of telling the truth, is it the best way?
Sometimes we will facing from problem of telling the truth to people of what we think of them. Some people says that we must be frankly speaking or out spoken of what we feel. Yes, it's true but, we only need to use that skills only in certain period where people should think that even though telling the truth frankly might be the best solution is not. It is because, although the person says they are open in what people think about them is actually not. As a human being, we are not perfect enough as we always do mistake in either we realise it or not.
others might think that this is ridicilious but, in certain condition it is neccesary for them to keep it as a secret, Besides that, the condition also depends on ones self-esteem as well as their character. it is important for us to know how well someone is as every word and act can be create but not real attitude.
people who usually create word and act is someone who wants to know about something from someone's else but, at the same time they actually does not really like it. they can't accept the truth as they think that they are perfect enough. besides that, they would take the frankly speaking that has been told by others as the word to far away from them.
everyone should realise that not every single thing that we do every day can be accept by every one. it is because different poeple has their own way in discribing the word "frankly speaking"
