How did this experience reflected this principle?
1. How can one learn through oral communication?
We can learn about different people’s background. The way First Nation do, how they honour their ancestor, their songs. Each activities help us learn more about each other, know who we are and culture of the territory we are on.
2. How did this exercise build community in this room?
We listen and connect with people in the room. Learn more about them, even people who we never talked to. We get to know about who they are, their family, their worries and their favourite memories. The circle created a comfortable environment to let us share our feeling, without feeling scared or embarrassed, it made us feel like we are sharing story with our friends rather than strangers.
