Nt1330 Week 3 Coursework

1. How do these 'frames' influence how you think?
These ‘frames” influence how I think. For example, every time when I saw some children are playing on the ground with their hands touch the ground, I thought this was wrong and their parents should have stop them playing on the ground. Because my parents yelled at me if my hands were touching the ground in the public when I was a child. They explained to me it was very dirty with a lot of germs. My parents have built a frame of how I feel about the public ground, which is dirty and a lot of germs. After I watch the video of Dr. Ness, thinking outside the box and changing the point of view are some of the tools to break these “frames”. (&Ness, 2011) Now, I think that touching the dirty ground may help strengthen the immune system. 2.

Do you think these frames could cloud your judgment on certain topics?
Yes, I think these frames could cloud my judgement on certain topics. Because these frames are taught as the “right thing”. For example, one of my frames was the people who were believed in Mormonism were weird and not nice. I was taught to stay away from them when I was growing up. Until several years ago, I met a person who was very kind, nice, and smart. After we became good friends, I found out that his belief was Mormonism. Instead of avoiding him, I shared my thoughts with him and I got to know more about his religious belief. I think some of these frames are wrong sometimes.

3. How difficult is it to shift those frames when you learn new information about a topic?
It is not difficult for me to shift those frames when I learn new information. I am open minded for any new information. For example, my job constantly makes new changes. Some of my co-workers get very upset; I enjoy thinking the reason behind the changes and the purpose with different point of view.
