Pick a person and observe the way they walk. Where are they going? What kind of shoes are they wearing? Are they moving quickly/slowly? How are their clothes affecting their walk? How are they interacting with their environment? What else can you tell from their body movements?
Then, try to imitate their walk. Do this two to three times and take notes on how you feel as you adopt these new body movements. Is it comfortable for you? Unnatural? What do you learn about the other person in the process?
Using course concepts, write a reflection on this activity. Your narrative does not have to answer every question in the prompt above, but it should include details. While is an open-ended assignment, we expect your writing to have a clear narrative structure and demonstrate intellectual engagement with course concepts and materials. Creativity is encouraged.
Provide at least one reference in Chicago format.
