The thing that sticks with me the most out of everything that we learned throughout the semester was the Robert Coles quote that said,\u00a0\u201cWe are asking for a kind of forbearance from people who are often considerably more burdened than we are, hence our obligation to think carefully about how we approach such people and how we are <\/em>with them, not to mention how we take leave of them\u201d (Coles, 79). I am the social media manager for my frisbee team, and although it is obviously much lower stakes than what Robert Coles was writing about, I think it is still very important I consider who I am recording and whether me asking them a question will hurt them in any way. I ask the team very light hearted questions, but I have the tendency to just run up to them and tell them to do something or answer a question. I don’t ask them if they want to answer or not because I have gotten accustomed to doing it my way since I think everyone is comfortable with it. They usually are ok with it but I should start asking. I don’t have an idea for a media element, so I will use a video I posted for frisbee as the media element. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
