Self-Portrait in Layers

In this learning situation, students explore the components of self-knowledge, specifically: interests, aptitudes, aspirations and values. Students organize the elements of their previously created personal profile, including any new aspects into an 8.5×11 personal identity mixed-media collage. It is a wholistic and schematic production that allows students to think deeply about themselves and compile and arrange this self-knowledge in a visual way to make connections between elements.
