Contains an explanation regarding how this component (any aspect of it; eg content of videos, content of websites) connects to your study of humanities. .25 point



Both cities both are similar to humanities because both places have a very significant history behind them. As well as the visual of arts that happens in the city of San francisco. just being in this city there are always something going on. Whether theres a rally, events, music festivals or strikes that happen in the streets of SF. San diego as well has alot of visuals and culture behind the enviornment of this city that is located in sotuhern California.

What are some assumptions/stereotypes you think people have of each location: 1 point

i would some would instantly think that San francisco is a place where there is alot of crimes and homeless people every where and alot craziness going on. yes San francisco there alot bad that is going on today but there is the same amount of good as well. There are alot of places that offer help to those who are not able to get by everyday. I would there is different parts of SF, there is areas where are theres more crimes and things of the sort going on but there also places like embarcadero and san francisco beaches where a family can spend a day there and see the roots of what the SF is all about. Same goes for San diego, where people who are not familar with the city think beaches are the only thing going on. There is also a part of San diego where people can enjoy the city or a night out with family at the finest restaurants in the country.



List 3 things that make each location similar: 1 point

1.Both to a certain extent are big cities
2. Of courses the Beaches
3. Activites and sporting events

List 3 things that make each location so different: 1 point

1. San francisco contains historical buildings such as golden gate bridge and Alcatraz island
2. San francisco is a bigger city than SD
3. San diego definitley has Hotter weather throughout the year thatn San Francisco

Questioning: What else would you like to know about these places? When completing the question section, lead your audience into the question by stating a fact you do know, yet you still have the related question. This way, both your audience and you will have an educational
experience. .5 point

I would say growing up in the northern california, alot of the time i have spend in San francisco and visited every part of the city and the communites moving forward as well as the lifestyle that people live in a place where certainly always has things going on. I would like to know why people that live out of califonia are so interested in the city of San diego? what is that attracts them to visit the place? is only the beaches? or is there another reason why Sd is appealing to people?





5. Using your classmates work from last week, tell us one thing you learned from 1 student. Is this one thing some common experience you share or some experience that is completely different than what you experienced? Is this one thing related to our class theoretical foundation and if so, how? Is that one thing related to historical or cultural context of this country or a different one? Link that persons blog to this entry (eg cut paste that blog entry here) . .5 point



ive learn form lori that she had very much enjoyed learning more about the science museum that she visited a while ago and perception of the places as a science of cooking because of it history and chemistry to it.
