1) What form of medium (music, art or literature ) allows you to best connect with Jesus and Why?

The form of medium that allows me to connect with God the best is music because when you sing, you would give it all because you are singinig for God. Also you experience and feel the same way as the artist who composed the song felt like when they wrote it. This is also another way of spreading the word of God through song and music, because it is in music format people can get access to it easier due to the internet.

2) Why has Jesus been portrayed in so many different ways throughout history?

Jesus I think has been portrayed in so many different ways to show that he comes in different forms for example the holy spirit. Another thought, is that he was portrayed in so many diffferent ways due to the fact that trends and interest were change every time so the Catholic church change how Jesus was portrayed to fit in with the latest trends and hobbies.

3) How is Jesus portrayed at Parramatta Marist?

At Parramatta Marist, Jesus is portrayed through literature, the use of the internet and vidoes. Although these are just materialised stuff, Jesus aslo is portrayed through the teachers of Parramatta Marist. The teachers here are very much like Jesus only that they cannot make a miracle happen. Teachers are always there when you need to ask a question or even if you are in need of support.

4) What artistic time period do you think best represents your image of Jesus and why?

I think that the best art period of my image of Jesus is the Comtemporary art period because I can free show what I think of Jesus in a new way and the use of technology. It will be easy for me to portray Jesus in the modern time as I have a good knowledge of the modern environment and how I can manipulate the modern resources to produce my image of Jesus.

5) Identify one image of Jesus that appeals to you. What do you like about the representation?

One image of Jesus that appeals to me is the image of Jesus in the contemporary art period of Street Art Jesus. The things that I like with the representation of Jesus here is that he is modernised to fit in with the current trends and stytles of the modern world and the artist made Jesus like a modern day youth would turn out like.

6) What factors currently shape your image of Jesus and why.

The factors that currently shape my image of jesus is the:

This is the Street Art Jesus:

2) Why might it be important for young people to identify with an image of Jesus?

I think that it is important for young people to recognize images of Jesus because it can help the young people live a better life ahead of them, they can learn moral ideals and not to make vital mistakes that can affect their future life.

 

3) Where in your life do you most associate with images of Jesus?

I mostly associate images of Jesus in life when I am sad, when I am alone at home I jsut look at an image of Jesus and then I get a feeling that he is always there no matter what. Images of Jesus also helps me and my family know how he looked liked when we pray.

1. List TWO problems that could occur from students selecting their own groups.

Two problems that could occur when students are selecting thier own groups is that some students may select students that are friends with them which can cause the selected group to misbehave and not do their work as they are to busy mucking around. Another problem that could occur when students are selecting their own groups is that the students that are selecting other students get into a fight about who would get that person in their group and who will end up with a group that they did not.

2. Which type of student do you think would be selected first?

The type of student who would be selected first is a student that is intelligent, does their work in class, their work is really good and gets high marks, completes all their work on time and that they work in the groups.

3. Why do you think they were selected first?

The reason I think that this tpe of student is chosen first becasue people would want to get good marks and would like to pass with ease this project using that type of person as good morale booster. People would also want a good leader who would lead them to get a good mark and knows how to manage a group without any hassles.

4. Which type of student do you think was selected last?

The type of student that be would mostly likely be selected last are the student who do not do work in their groups, students who do not co-operate with other group members, students who does not submit their work on time, students that do get in toruble all the time which means less time to their work in class whch then leads to the above and people who likes to take sickies often.
