Instructions for GAP(b)
(1) The first step for this assignment is just that: to do your action. Create your lesson plan, collect food or clothing for your drive, attend your online training, gather your resources for your resource list, whatever action you proposed (and that was approved) in GAP(a)
(2) Take your earlier GAP assignment (which you should have saved as a Word document) and add to it by responding specifically to the following prompts.
- What did I do to address my chosen social injustice? Provide relevant details like who, when, where, how. Is your “action” one of advocacy, information-sharing, self-education, or…?
- What barriers or frustrations did I face, and how did I overcome them? Given the limits of COVID-19 and the inability to attend events or gather with others physically, how did you manage to create a meaningful “grassroots” project?
- What would I do differently next time I seek to address social injustice? You might answer by asking what you would have done if COVID-19 hadn’t been a factor.
- To what degree did my grassroots activism make a change? How do you know? If it didn’t make a change, why not?
- If your action involved creating an artifact (infographic, resource list, etc) or generated any sort of proof of completion (certificate, email, etc), you will want to add that as well.
