What is the significance of sharing your personal memories and reflections with classmates?

  1. It helps students further build the understanding of others or "being in someone else's shoes". If this is a mature group, it will bring people closer together. It also breaks a lot of social barriers.

  2. I think, for me, it helps people understand you and where you come from with your art... and vice versa with other people.

  3. It helps reinforce the notion of nostalgia and reconnecting with the past if it's done with others in a sort of shared experience.

  4. It gives other students the ability to connect with you. Sharing get you to open up as well. Often times we think there should be no connection between our educational and home lives. I have realized that you cannot disconnect the two. When you have a bad day at home it follows you to your educational life. It is the perfect avenue for discussion and self expression. It also allows further connection with fellow students. They may have experienced a similar situation and can therefore relate to you.
