On last weeks panel you all enjoyed it when we spoke about environmental issues. But all the suggested comments on our Instagram asked for a new topic, bullying. Lets get into discussing the issue of bullying and why people should be more considerate and caring to others.]]> 2018-11-08 04:34:31 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/301892850 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/303073219 Kiana, the perfect song to illustrate a picture in the audiences minds about bullying is the song 'Brave' by Sara Bareilles. ]]> 2018-11-12 00:45:59 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/303073219 kphin4 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/303074555 WOW!! That sounds so intriguing. I am so eager to share thoughts and opinions about the song 'who's laughing now' by Jessie j. So can you elaborate on this eye opening song ,Sana. ]]> 2018-11-12 00:55:09 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/303074555 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/303077426
Well Kiana, the song "Brave" written by Sara Bareilles, released in 2013  is actually about her experiences that associate to bullying. Sara Bareilles uses a lot of repetition such as "I just wanna see you be brave" to really emphasise the point that you can stand up for yourself and ignore the hurtful comments.   ]]> 2018-11-12 01:14:44 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/303077426 kphin4 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304082483 That's amazing! ]]> 2018-11-14 00:08:18 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304082483 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304612327 So Kiana, what is your song about?]]> 2018-11-15 01:33:33 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304612327 kphin4 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304614197 Well, Sana my song is about overcoming the bullies and becoming successful, as well as gaining confidence within yourself. This song was released in 2011 and was written by the original artist Jessie j herself and was her first studio album!]]> 2018-11-15 01:43:08 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304614197 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304614250 Whoa that is so cool!]]> 2018-11-15 01:43:24 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304614250 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304614336 I'm so interested tell me more about the evaluation of your song ]]> 2018-11-15 01:43:51 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304614336 kphin4 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304615133 Well, Throughout the song Jessie j uses a lot of rhyme, in particular she uses "But thank you for the pain you made me raise my game". The evaluative language that was used makes the song to be catchy and powerful. ]]> 2018-11-15 01:48:31 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304615133 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304632952 Wow, in that one phrase you can tell it has so much emotion involved within.]]> 2018-11-15 03:25:53 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304632952 kphin4 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304638817 Yeah, Jessie j uses a lot of effective poetic devices like metaphors such as "Play your cards, be a star" to convey the message of standing for yourself in a powerful way. Throughout the song there is also a lot of poetic devices such as rhetorical questions " who's laughing now" is a common phrase used so the audiences are envisioning an answer in their heads, many viewers notice that the song also ends in the rhetorical question so they are left thinking. This is a powerful language feature that enhances audiences depth of thought about serious phenomenon.]]> 2018-11-15 04:03:30 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304638817 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304643254 Wow, that's amazing. I'd love to share the poetic devices used in Brave.]]> 2018-11-15 04:34:04 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304643254 kphin4 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304643283
Perfect, lets hear it!]]> 2018-11-15 04:34:15 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304643283 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304644608 Well, in Brave by Sara Bareilles she uses a lot of alliteration such as "With what you want to say", emphasising what we WANT to say, making you want to stand up for yourself]]> 2018-11-15 04:44:26 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304644608 kphin4 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304644800

WOW!!! Now I see how two different song artists both incorporated the same topic and executed it in both amazing ways. Both lyrical songs talk about bullying as well as offer phrases throughout the song that encourage confidence to stand up for yourself like "I wanna see you be brave" and "Blow your smoke, your not alone". These songs both encourage confidence and urge young viewers not to be a bystander to bullying. ]]> 2018-11-15 04:45:41 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/304644800 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/305738011 I know right!! They really grab the attention of the audience to evoke emotion. The language feature that best summons an emotion within the viewers thoughts is the use of metaphors such as " you can turn a phrase in to a weapon or a drug". ]]> 2018-11-19 00:40:37 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/305738011 kphin4 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/305738710 Wait! so Sara Bareilles is trying to state a issue in society but is performing it in a very confronting way, like how she uses certain metaphorical phrases such as "nothings gonna hurt you the way that words do". She is trying the exaggerate the hurt that victims of bullying go through.   ]]> 2018-11-19 00:46:24 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/305738710 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/305739491 Yeah basically!! She uses a lot of repetition such as" I wanna see you be brave". This is repeated in nearly every stanza. This conveys the message because it is repeatedly found in the lyrics which makes it easier to remember.]]> 2018-11-19 00:52:26 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/305739491 kphin4 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/305739940 COOL!! I really understand the reasons and context of both songs. They're so amazing. ]]> 2018-11-19 00:55:24 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/305739940 https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/305741232 These songs are truly amazing and has a purposeful impact on the viewers.]]> 2018-11-19 01:03:19 UTC https://padlet.com/kphin4/rwsu531xedbt/wish/305741232
