         <description><![CDATA[<div>Caribbean Civilisations is a well explained course which help the students to understand different aspects and themes of the Caribbean. When compared to Caribbean Studies, Caribbean Civilisation is the more advanced course which gives you explanations and give you evidence for these explanation. It helps you to make your own assumptions about a particular topic in the Caribbean. Caribbean Civilisation is a interactive course which allows everyone to contribute to topics they have interest in. It make you apply your critical thinking to certain ideas and theories made by historians. Caribbean Civilisation also goes in depth to a particular topic. For example at the primary school level you are told that Christopher Columbus discovered the Caribbean, at the secondary level you are told he did not discover it because there were people hear before but with Caribbean Civilisation you learn that he may not have discovered the Caribbean but re-discovered it or discovered it for Spain, you are also given evidence such as artifacts left by people which date way before Christopher Columbus came and you are also given the opportunity to examine these claims and make your own assumptions. This semester of Caribbean Civilisation, John F. Campbell touch on themes which are important in the society today such as: enslavement, Caribbean Identity, Gender, Religion, Culture, Caribbean Family Life, Civilisation, Beyond Massa and Imperialism. The lectures were very entertaining especially the introduction of the lecture with a song which included Machel Montano Ministry or Road, Rihanna This is What you came for and many more. The tutorial sessions was very interactive and enjoyable. The writer learned a lot in her tutorial such as double consciousness. Special thanks to her Tutorial teacher Dr. Ronald (Tuesday 6pm-7pm) class who made the class very enjoyable with his many stories which he linked to all the topics relevant. The course did meet the expectations of the writer as it showed the writer the difference between Caribbean Studies and Caribbean Civilisation. The writer learned about the pre- ceramic, ceramic and indigenous people,diversity, identity and religions in the Caribbean , was educated on the historical events and saw how it shaped the Caribbean. The writer leaves this journey knowing more about the Caribbean and is able to use the information taught to educate others about what she has learned. The writer now understands clearly why Dr. John F. Campbell said Caribbean Civilisation is the most important and relevant course in the university in his first lecture. Although we have come to the end of Caribbean Civilisation , the journey has just begun.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Yours sincerely,<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; A proud Caribbean&nbsp;Civilisation Student</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Beyond Massa, Sugar Management in the British Caribbean written by our very own, Dr. John F. Campbell was the main focus in this course. Two of the three assessments were based on this book. This book focused on the Sugar plantation located at the Golden Groove Plantation in Jamaica. Beyond Massa discussed many themes which we were also thought in this course such as enslavement and gender. Overall the book give us an insight to Sugar management in the 17th and 18th century it also introduce us to characters like Nanny who the writer sees as an empowering it also helped us understand what our ancestors had to go through and appreciate their efforts in the world today.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>When the Spaniards came to the Caribbean one of their goals were to 'convert the heathens'. They came to the Caribbean and built churches and converted persons into a life of Christianity. When the British came they brought Protestants which is not as common as the Catholic faith.In society today we could see that as being a great impact as Christians (Roman Catholics) is the most dominating religion in the Caribbean. As mentioned before the writer practices the Catholic faith. In the Caribbean we are very diverse meaning we have a great variety of religions practice in the Caribbean. Most of the religions in the Caribbean today did originated in the Caribbean and was left by our ancestors such as voodoo.<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Learning activity 7.2<br><strong>The purpose of education?<br></strong>Education is used to move up the social class hierarchy from lower to middle to upper class. Education helps you to get a job which is one of the reasons people take education seriously to have a better life, to help people understand certain subjects which can be beneficial to them in the future such as Mathematics or English. It also help people to make wiser decisions<br><strong>Is education the gateway to happiness?<br></strong>Not necessarily. Yes education can make some people happy to a certain extent but not everyone. You do see in society that the most educated people are depressed or lonely. Education is used to pressure you into believing that you must have a certain level of education to be something in lives which cause people to be fearful and over worked themselves to get an education. However it does to a certain extent the feeling of doing well and getting rewards (Scholarships, money,a job, recognition) is a proud and joyful feeling. Receiving an education makes you feel accomplished and proud which makes you feel happy.<br><strong>Should the main purpose of education be to get a job?<br></strong>No It should not be. If your only purpose to get an education is to get a job then you wouldn't feel the joys of learning something new or finding a topic you are interested in. Instead you would be stressing yourself out about the future and not taking advantage of the opportunities you are getting to learn new things.<strong><br></strong> <strong>Is there a role for education in Caribbean nation building?</strong> <br>Yes there is. With more educated people the Caribbean would have more innovating people who can help to build the Caribbean and make it better than it is today. There would be more people who can offer up their knowledge to better their society.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>When the Spaniards came to the Caribbean they brought the first form of education with them which was Sunday school which was the teaching of the Catholic religion. The wanted to create God fearing people. When slavery was over many families saw education as important so they began to educate themselves. Following this institutions were built and religion was still being taught. However people believed that boys were the ones to learn and be educated and not girls so the schools were dominated by boys. Although girls were accommodated it was a small percentage as compared to boys. As time pass however we saw more girls getting the opportunity to go to school and learn and we can see in the present that girls are now dominated as regards to education. You go into a class at university and there is more girls than boys probably 80% girls 20% boys. At the primary school level students were taught basic skills such as reading and writing and religious knowledge while at the secondary level students were taught subjects such as English Literature, Geography and History.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

People would rather shop and order online from the U.S. than support the local business and this could be seen by the large percentage of Caribbean people ordering online. Businesses began to design there clothing similar to the U.S. wear so they can gain more customers. You hardly see anyone wearing cultural clothing unless there is a festival approaching (i.e. Divali). We follow the U.S. fashion more than the Caribbean<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Learning activity 8 <br><strong>A short description on Carnival</strong><br>Carnival originated in the 18th century by the French plantation owners participating in masquerading before the Lenten period. It was basically use to 'free up themselves'. The African slaves and the French plantations would partake in mimicking each other. The slaves who were not allowed to take part in the festival created their own type of Carnival which they named Canboulay, After Emancipation carnival developed and became associated with stick fighting and chanting and playing the drums and steelpan which the British did not like and tried to stop the festival. Jouvert was also a big part of carnival. After slavery it became more developed, it developed events such as Carnival Monday and Tuesday where different bands would masquerade through the streets. Competitions such as King and Queen of Carnival, Kiddies Carnival, International Soca Monarch, Road March. Today Carnival in Trinidad and Tobago is defined as the greatest show on earth and generates revenue for the country as well as bring in many tourist to experience what is know as the greatest show on earth.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>(Learning activity 6.1)<br>There are many ways to identify a person. As taught in this course you can be identified based on: politics history, gender, education, race, religion, geographic origin and language and many more categories. The writer can be identified as an A heterosexual catholic female who is currently pursuing tertiary education. Notice she identified herself by four different categories (sexual orientation, religion, gender,education) which all give me a different identity.<br><strong><em>Sexual orientation<br></em></strong>The writer identifies as heterosexual meaning she is attracted to the opposite sex. The writer believes that this identity was chosen as oppose to religion which may have been given to you by your parents are thought in your family life. The writer believes that sexual orientation is a choice because you choose who you are attracted to as opppose to something like education which you earn by your own effort.<strong><em><br><br>Religion<br></em></strong>The writer identifies as belonging to the Catholic faith. People can assume that the writer believer in God based on her religion. It is different from other ways of identifying oneself as with religion, people are thought values which they may follow. With the Christian faith people learn values from reading the bible. If you see a person working down the street with a bible in their hand you may gave them the identity of being a Christian. When the writer identifies as being catholic persons may associate believing in God and going to church with the writer, this is her identity it differs from other ways because the writer could identify as being Catholic and people could associated praying to God and reading the bible as being apart of the Catholic identify however the writer also is identified as being female. Would you identify her as being a Catholic because she is female? Although she identifies as being Catholic it doesn't mean that she has one identity and the other identities will differ from her Catholic identity.<em><br></em><strong><em><br><br>Gender<br></em></strong>The writer identify as being female. This topic is very controversial. Anyone can identify as being female whether born man or woman. In the world today gender has become more than just male and female. You have males identifying as females vice versa. The identity of being a female gives me a different identity from the others chosen. As a female you know that you can get pregnant, females are always said to be inferior to men and we see how that is changing and the glass ceiling is be broken as women are dominating all over the world. <strong><em><br><br>Education<br></em></strong>With education we can see how it differ from the other forms of identification. Education is solely based on your own effort. The education level which the writer is at now is based on her accomplishments in life it differs from religion, gender and sexual orientation because education is what you make for yourself the hard work you put in to reach a certain level while the other choices such as gender is something you were born with or something you may have chose for yourself.<strong><br></strong><br></div>]]></description>

         <title>Should The Caribbean Circum be considered as a part of the Caribbean?</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Learning activity 2.4<br> The writer does agree that the Circum Caribbean should be considered as part of the Caribbean. Geographically it is located around the Caribbean so therefore it could be seen as being apart of the Caribbean and it is included in some definitions of the Caribbean because of the closeness. Historically, the circum Caribbean have some similarities such as the fact that Christopher Colombus 'discovered' (discovered for Spain)the circum Caribbean and the Caribbean and also hold similarities with the Caribbean with regards to migratory movements of the pre- ceramic, ceramic, indigenous people. We also share some of the same cultures, religions and festivals. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>From a young age we were thought that Christopher Colombus discovered the Caribbean. It is said in written in songs, books, websites and thought at the primary and secondary levels in schools. However in Caribbean Civilisation it was understood that he discovered the Caribbean for Spain. He was not the first person on our islands so how did he discover it. When he came to the Caribbean didn't he meet people here. Therefore it was not a discovery but a re-discovery. He should not be credited for discovering the caribbean as he met people here when he came. The Indigenous people resided in the Caribbean before Christopher Colombus but it is not mentioned. These people included the Paleo- Indians, Meso- Indians and the Neo- Indians.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong>Pre history<br></strong>Pre- history is a word among others which Mr. Campbell told us not to use. As he word say, "That is 'rubbish'." There is no such thing as pre-history as this would mean that there were events in the past way out of our memory therefore we do not use pre-history but we use history which does not exclude any events and allows us to look at any event.<br><br><strong>Civilisation<br></strong>Civilisation from the writers perspective can be defined as a society where the persons are well developed and advance in certain areas such as speech, technology and mannerisms. In the first lecture the question was asked if we the students would classify ourselves as civilised. Mr. Campbell pointed out to us that although we see ourselves as civilised we partake in alot of activities that most people would see as uncivilised such as what we eat. He further explained that we could be seen as savages because we ate things like 'unborn' (eggs). What was taken away from this lecture is although we saw ourselves as civilised and we do not identify as savages we do partake in activities which can be seen as uncivilised or savage.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Caribbean Civilisation started on the first day of school with our first face to face session. Here we were greeted by Mr. John Campbell who seemed like a humble person. He was very funny and seated at the front row was his mother intrigued with every word her son spoke. When the writer first heard Caribbean Civilisation the first thing that came to mind was Caribbean Studies which made her uninterested in the course, however twelve weeks later Caribbean Civilisation thought her about events from a revisionist perspective which made her rethink all that she had been taught previously. She also learned about themes that are very important and still play a huge role&nbsp; in the society today such as Caribbean Identity, 'slavery', gender roles, diversity, religion and culture and many more. Most of her experience involved the reading and understanding of Beyond Massa written by John F. Campbell as well as learning about her identity, the Caribbean identity and why it is so difficult to define a Caribbean identity. Themes that were outstanding to the writer were pre- history and civilisation, defining the caribbean, Caribbean identity, religion education and Caribbean family life and Caribbean Cultural expressions. So here is her&nbsp; Caribbean Civilisation Journey.<br>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Yours sincerely,&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;                                         A proud Caribbean Civilisation student&nbsp;</div>]]></description>
