Listening

Listening is important always. If you don't listen you don't get the information you need. If no one listen it makes the story irrelevant. Through listening, intellectual production is made. In order to prevent people from making the same mistakes that have been made in the past history is passed down and if no one listens then people will never correct teh mistakes. Listening is how knowledge is made and how people pass their knowledge. It is how intellectual production is passed down and change comes with time. If everyone listened and took to heart what was being said and remembered then so many less mistakes and problems would be made.

Performance

Performing the story i felt telling it from her perspective would be the most accurate it was aboutt he day she moved into college and as an outsider i couldn't capture the way she felt unless i became her. I may have lost some of the emotion that she told her story with simply because i was not there but i thought i saved a lot by performing it the way i did. Retelling stories helps to create intellectual production because it is passing the story down but you have to be careful not to change the story or the emotions and feelings in the story, listening is important. I learned its easy to listen but to retell what you have been told is a little more difficult, you need to listen and pick out the details and make sure you include them when you tell a story. Note taking is important because my performance was simply from my notes, i didn't go through and write a monologue i made a story on the spot from my notes in class and if i would have taken bad notes i wouldn't have been able to tell the story. In order to geta feel of how the person is portraying their story you have to ask questions and dig for information.
