Ukrainian Migrant in Australia

Writer lay this out question/answer format , everything must be written very academically ! Week 11. Tutorial. The immigrant experience in Australia This question should be at least half a page you can set it out as one paragraph or question and answer format. Please use one of the recommended readings as my teacher prefers that . (Entry ticket required to this tutorial!) Read from one of the items of creative literature or biography below. Take a record of the insights that the 101556 - Geographies of Social Difference - Spring 2010 - LEARNING GUIDE Page 11 material provides to the immigrant settlement experience in Australia [You may find and use material alternative to that which is listed below. That is fine, but make sure you take a full and proper bibliographic record]. Consult a piece of literature or biography regarding immigrants who are of an ethnic background that is not your own. Questions 1. What was the creative literature source you read? Which migrant group(s) did it involve? 2. What was it like to have been a migrant to Australia from the perspective of the source you consulted? 3. To what degree were migrants able to maintain their culture, and to what degree did they feel the pressure to assimilate to Anglo-Celtic culture? 4. What were the key forms and spaces of cultural maintenance? E.g. places of worship (space); religion (form) 5. What were the central problems faced by these groups (economic disadvantage, senses of belonging, parent/child disputes, racism, etc)? 6. How do these experiences compare and contrast to experiences of your own, your family or friends you know? Readings There is likely to be some pressure on the library's holdings for these materials around weeks 7, 8 and 9. An alternative would be to consult elsewhere, you should have little difficulty obtaining these or other readings from your local libraries. If you do not have access to a municipal library then you should obtain (or request) and digest a UWS reading well in advance of the tutorial.

Iconic child Embryonic child Vulnerable child Examples of students work in my class: Subject: Disneyland Topic: On-line 5 Author: Kristy Nethercote Date: 9 October 2011 4:47 PM Disneyland parks are located all over the world and are a particularly famous site/space of childhood. Every advertisement for Disneyland has been very carefully socially constructed in order to convey to children and families that it is the ideal space for children. Disneyland has numerous dominant constructions, specifically characteristics of the innocent child and the cereal box family. We are familiar with Disney through our own childhood experiences and the emotions it evokes within us; so imagine a real life world where you can experience these emotions physically, its every child's dream. Disneyland truly is a world of magic and wonderland. Disneyland presents the child as an idyllic form of innocence. It presents a world of freedom and conveys to viewers the image of children as a pure form of happiness, like those on greeting cards. The construction of the ‘cereal box family' is definitely the most obvious associated with Disneyland. It reinforces the idea of the ‘perfect family' - father, mother and 2 children. Although primarily directed at children, Disneyland creates a world that is an appealing space for anyone and a place where dreams can come true for everyone. I personally visited Disneyland in California with my family when I was 17 and it was one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. Everything is so well thought out and I was so amazed at how magical a place could be. Disneyland is truly a space for childhood, it perceives to people how a world of Disney is perfect :) Reply Forward
