engagement.
Doing, being, becoming and
belonging.
This power point had to link
to doing, being, becoming and belonging.
Through baking I have illustrated that these concepts can be
achieved. My fieldwork two
placement was where I facilitated baking.
The setting was a home for individuals that have physical disabilities. I was working with a 19-year-old boy
that had a traumatic brain injury.
He enjoyed baking, so through baking he was able to achieve doing,
being, becoming and belonging.
Baking is defined to “cook food by dry heat without direct exposure to a
flame, typically in an oven or on a hot surface” (Dictonary.com, 2012)
The term doing is defined as
the “activities in which a particular person engages” (Dictionary.com,
2012). The doing part of baking is
a key aspect of baking as it is a way in which individuals learn, individuals
learn through physically participating in baking or through past experience. Doing
is illustrated in this power point several times through the images of the
individual participating in the activity of baking.
The term being is defined as
“the state or quality of having existence. Something, such as an object, an idea, or a symbol, that
exists, is thought to exist, or is represented as existing” (The Free
Dictionary, 2012). Being is illustrated
as it is the symbol that baking holds.
Through creativeness and expression individuals are able to ‘be’. Being is shown through the creativeness
that the individual’s holds/show through the baking; this can be shown in the
slides that have the finished product of baking.
The term belonging is defined
as ‘be rightly classified in or assigned to a specified category”
(Dictionary.com, 2012). Belonging
through baking is evident as it can symbolize individuals belonging to a group
or culture. Belonging in a group
means social acceptance, which gives an individual a sense that they
belong. The group can be a
culture, class or friends.
The last term becoming is
defined as “any process of change” (Dictionary.com, 2012). Becoming can be illustrated as
individuals may grow through experience of baking and further their knowledge
and become a baker. We may also
become through learning from others, and creating a future in baking.
Lastly there were 3 examples
of ethical consideration that I made in relation to the images I obtained. Firstly I gained consent from the
individuals in the personal images I took. Secondly I used APA referencing when using images from the
Internet. Lastly I was
confidential by not stating what my placement setting was and by not naming the
client I worked with predominately in this setting.
