Bolove!!

OK! It's "Questions about the Project" time! I think what my problem is that I am over-thinking the entire project that my mind is going completely blank.

Q1: [Family History] "Influential People": Does this mean people in our family who influenced us in becoming teachers? I'm assuming so since the section is "Family History."

Q2: [Family History] "Strengths and Resources" and "Difficulties and Hardships": I'm not so sure about "Strengths and Resources" but I am assuming that "Difficulties and Hardships" mean the difficulties our families went through (ex: Holocaust victims, WWII, Immigration, etc)

Q3: [Stage of Ethnic Identity] Basically everything in this section I don't understand. Mostly "Influences," and then everything from there.

Q4: [Aspects of Ethnicity] Basically everything in this section. What the heck are "Orientation Modes," "Intellectual Modes," "Non-Verbal/Verbal Communcation" etc?

Q5: [Significant Individual Differences] Now I get this section pretty well. (=

Ok so I know I'm not entirely insane. I just had my roommate look over the directions and the sample map and even she couldn't figure out half of the stuff after looking at it for a good 10-15 minutes. "Don't feel stupid," she said. "I couldn't figure out any of that stuff. I mean, what are 'orientation modes' anyway?"
