I created this series because I was intrigued by an earlier class where I had to cooperate in making a service project attempting to better engage men in understanding and preventing gender-based violence. I grew an interest in defining what it means to be a Man because I believed it directly affects addressing the gender-based violence issue. So for this project, I targeted Men in hopes of exploring positive masculine ideals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-10\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column

I designed the report for the sole purpose of reflecting on campaign events and spreading awareness of our political environment in the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"793\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/coltonportfolio.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Final-Campaign-Report-1-793x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-85\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coltonportfolio.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Final-Campaign-Report-1-793x1024.jpg 793w, https:\/\/coltonportfolio.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Final-Campaign-Report-1-232x300.jpg 232w, https:\/\/coltonportfolio.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Final-Campaign-Report-1-768x992.jpg 768w, https:\/\/coltonportfolio.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Final-Campaign-Report-1.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>Social Identity &amp; Intergroup Communication: Infographic<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For this assignment, I was tasked to brainstorm an evidence-based infographic on a topic related to communicating across differences and submit it to my professor. So for this assignment, I chose to engage with the polarization of politics in the United States. This was created in the fall of 2021 relatively close to the 2020 presidential election where much of our society conflicts with each other based on their political affiliation. There was a clear indication of different groups of ideology and I sought to create an infographic spreading awareness.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"410\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/coltonportfolio.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Proper-Politics-410x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-87\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coltonportfolio.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Proper-Politics-410x1024.jpg 410w, https:\/\/coltonportfolio.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Proper-Politics-120x300.jpg 120w, https:\/\/coltonportfolio.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Proper-Politics-768x1920.jpg 768w, https:\/\/coltonportfolio.knight.domains\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Proper-Politics.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 410px) 100vw, 410px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>Interpersonal Communication: Scholarly Journal Assignment<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For this assignment, my objective was to select a peer-reviewed journal article that examines communication and relationships on an interpersonal level and reflects on it to my professor through a series of guidelines.
