Case Study: Malala Yousafzai
Focus/Ideas: Examine how obstacles/critical events shape the person we are
How living in different environments alter our values
Type of Multimedia Presentation: Website
For my Personal Interest Project I have decided to do a case study on Malala Yousafzai.
The intention of this project is to understand how Malala is perceived in society and to recognise how our surrounding environment and the obstacles we face in life shape the person we are. This project is aimed at young people as it focuses on the value of education in poorer countries, compared to well off societies such as Australia.
My inspiration for this project is Malala herself and the bravery, courage and determination she displays each and every day which positively reflects her identity. This project will not only examine her life and the critical events which she has experienced, but will also hopefully inspire and motivate more young people to stand up for what is right and assess their own identity and contribution to society.
To gain further knowledge of this study I have begun to read Malala's own online blogs, quotes and diary entries. Also I have read biographies and newspaper articles. All of these have helped and continue to help me understand the incredible and unique story of Malala Yousafzai.
In order to achieve this project I am planning on finishing researching and gathering more in depth information, then using this I will begin to explore the key themes and ideas of identity within her story. After highlighting the major ideas of identity I will begin to formulate my multimedia presentation.
To complete the project I will be required to manage my time effectively, use all of the habits of mind, plan all of my ideas clearly and continue to check my work with another person.
I have decided to present my project on a website. This is a great way for anyone to access it and I can also be creative with it while presenting a lot of information.
"I thought why should I wait for someone else? Why don't I raise my voice? Why don't I stand up for my rights? I need to tell world what is happening." -Malala Yousafzai
