Knowing Your Audience Analysis

     It's almost funny how we all come from different places, yet many of us are alike in more ways than one. In the past four weeks we have a done more than one assignment that helps others understand what we are, a room with a window being the first. That assignment helped us see where everyone was learning from, and a good bit of other information about their lives with some observation, but the most informational has surely been the knowing your audience questions and answers.
     After reading all of the answers to the questions, I realized the one way we are all most similar is that we each have a plan of some sort, and in most cases that is the reason we are here. It appears that I have an honest audience, which I believe is very good. If someone were holding back or being fake it might make an assignment similar to this one quite difficult. While reading answers to questions like 'your worst fears', or 'what makes you happy', I could tell that everyone is being genuine and true. Even if it seemed goofy or maybe even a little crazy, at least the person answered the question honestly.
     Many of my classmates including myself have a family or  are planning on having a family in the future, and while reading many of these posts, I could tell there are many caring and good people in my audience as well. It's easy to see we have a wide group of ages in this class, but that is also a good thing, I believe it is important so that we see we are all equal in this world. Some may have certain skills or qualifications, and we are all ultimately different, but ultimately we are also equal. I feel as if I actually know more about my classmates or audience than I would if attending a seated course because of reading all these answers. I feel emotions for some of my audience when I read what they are writing about, sometimes joy, others sorrow, and twice confused.We all have our own plan, and we are all here to work on making that plan happen.
