Blog 3

The critical attributes are the essential elements that encompass the whole issue. Land degradation, health risks, and in-humane animal treatment are the main critical attributes. Industrial farming is risky for the health of the land and all beings surrounding the farms is the procedural knowledge we are dealing with. This big idea is soundly supported by known health risks, pesticides used, inhuman treatment of animals and farmers, desertification, court cases, hormones injected in animals, and known restrictions of industrialization farming. To make sure people can fully become educated in industrial farming we would create a presentation that encompasses the overall views of this farming practice. At the end of the presentation we use as a hook there would be a list of links, movies, and books to allow people to develop deeper comprehension of this issue. These different venues allow viewers to learn the information using Multiple Intelligences that Howard Gardner founded.

Service Learning Project: Members of our group will visit three individual farms. During our time observing and learning about their practices we will acknowledge pesticides, hormones, and land use. We will come together and compare/contrast our experiences and practices of the farms.
