Who am I? Poster
INTRODUCTION
The following activity is a self examination and exploration that will end with each person
developing a POSTER of himself / herself on Adobe Photoshop OR Comic Life showing "My
Many Faces". We all portray ourselves differently in different situations, and with different
people; this poster attempts to open our eyes to who you really are.
Step 1: ANSWERING THE QUESTION: WHO AM I?
There are two accompanying surveys that you must complete before you begin your poster. You might find that
the person you think you portray might be very different to different people. The handouts are:
a) External evaluations (you will need a minimum of 4 + your own)
b) Self - Reflection
Be open minded about the data you collect AND be honest with the people you are evaluating. You might not
agree with what people think about you, but their view must be considered and analyzed.
Step 2: COLLECTING POSTER INFORMATION SHOWING: MY MANY FACES
Based on Step 1, you will need to begin collecting pictures, images, symbols, words, and quotes that you think
answer the question: Who am I? We need images that will express who you are as a whole person, not just as
"John the student", or "Julie the athlete", but a mix of everything.
Step 3: CREATING THE POSTER / PANEL
Your poster or panel will reflect who you are... pay attention to organization of images, use of colour (or shades
of light and dark) and words / phrases.
External Evaluation: Who am I?
Please fill in the following information based on what you know about me OR what you think
about me from observations.
Clothing
Hair
Music
Gender
Ethnicity / Culture
Interests / Hobbies
Other
Self Reflection: Who am I?
Vital Statistics: Using the characteristics you have already defined on the external
evaluation handout (clothing, hair, music, gender, ethnicity, interests etc), and anything else
you see as relevant information, explain how this effects the impressions others might have
on you and what you are communicating to them?
