Cluster of My Controversy

For the cluster activity, I formatted my thoughts to be useful in the writing of my QRG. I formulated my thoughts as a means of organizing the key points of either side that I needed to address and did so as directly as I could.

REFLECTION:

After looking at Swati's and Bri's clusters, I found that the look of a map can really have an impact on how well it reads. I focused on formulating my map so that I may reference back to it while writing, what I noticed in both Bri's and Swati's maps was that they were fluid and understandable; less of a reference and more of an organization tool. Theirs were both much less word focused then mine was, but I don't think wither of those are bad. Again, it goes back to how we intend to use them. I did realize that I had forgotten to include media outlets for either side, so I'll add those now in case anyone was interested. For those who support standardized testing, seeing that they are high-level individuals, often express their views in public settings, debates, and speeches. Those against preform on a smaller scale, in small boycotts, district meetings, and for some of the larger names, TED talks are often an outlet for the addressing of the issue.
