This Venn diagram illustrates connections in the three topics: critical pedagogy, intercultural communication, and Technology.
Looking back, it seems that Critical Pedagogy overlaps with all of the themes reflected in this portfolio. Perhaps this may be because my lens for viewing the concepts may have changed during the process of putting this portfolio together. There seems to be a different focus, or a goal in all of the subject areas that seems to reach out towards Critical Pedagogy. However, as shown in the Venn diagram on the left, all of the themes intersect and overlap with one another in some way. To what extent these themes overlap or connect with one another seems to change as my focus on each of the themes change depending on the lens that I look through, and where my thoughts may be situated at that specific point in time. It almost seems as though I can immerse myself in each of the themes and look out through the lens available on each theme, and be able to view the other overlapping themes through that lens. The journey through recognizing and validating all of these themes as inter-related concepts while working on this portfolio has helped me to develop flexibility in the way I view each concept, and perhaps, a wider lens to view all of the concepts.
