Developing My Identity

"Do not pay attention to what other people say, anything that makes an individual happy." This sentence comes from my grandmother who tries to teach my personal identity . Individual identity represents his or her real identity; it is one that allows a particular person to stand out from the crowd. In personal life, he or she will encounter many obstacles that shape her or his presence, and even shape her or him to a person with a particular identity or identity.

When I look back on my education, the two courses stand out in finding a balance between teaching academic skills and developing their own moral identity. Phil Browne, my high school biology teacher, is related to the ecosystem and the environment that we need to consider themselves as ethical agents, so our consumer choice and individual We ask you to think about the influence of behavior. A few years later, I entered a university freshman seminar called "education and social inequality" at Middlebury University in Vermont. I remember being touched by the barbaric inequality of Jonathan Kozor and the moral anger at the devastated, inadequate and missing schools of the poor areas; in the early stages of the course, I learned my thoughts I tried to express it with documents.

Meanwhile, I was very active at the university gay community, and I helped organize and participate in press conferences about Betty, Ellen Degeneres's mother, and then she (I And 50 other people). Her words inspired me ... Because there is no better vocabulary, given freedom is a big boost for my soul.

In my personal identity, I experienced many aspects in the life on the planet over the last 25 years. My personal identity is every day, and over many years and years. In my reading and research, I personally agree with the author. Who says that personal identities are divided by two subsets. These two subsets are characterized by experience and learning. Contrary to Locke's idea, these two subsets are the characteristic of growth of my personal identity. According to Mr. Wenger, identity can be regarded as a kind of negotiation experience developed through participation in practice, which gives us "part of what participation experience and what our community is concerned with "(Wenger, 1998). ) "The actual identity is defined in society not only because it is regarded as a social discourse of self and social categories, but also because it is created as part of life experience in a particular community" ( Wenger, 1998, p. 151))
