Alien Tour Guide Essay

Cherice Gaviglia
While
doing the Alien Tour Guide Cherice and I chose to tell our alien about the
library. Our first original question was that “This is the library, this is
where we study” the alien then asks why and Cherice and I had to sit and think
about all the times that we have been in the library and why we were there. The
first assumption that we came up with was that we just always go straight to
the library when we need to study we have never sat there and thought about why
we go to a certain place to study. After doing the alien tour guide we realized
we go to the library because it is the most convenient place because it is
quiet and we have resources such as books and computers to use if we need them.
We have always just headed straight to the library to study it was never a
question of “Why are you going to the library?” It is just an assumption that
we would go to the library because that is what is normal to us, therefore it
we do not question it. The second assumption that we came up with was the last
question that we asked which was “We are trying to improve our knowledge so
that we can have a good paying career and nice possessions for ourselves and
our future families." The assumption that we got from this question was that
we have never gone to the library and thought to ourselves “were going to the
library so in the future my future family can have nice things..” we just go to
the library because we feel that it is
what we are supposed to do, we have never thought about the bigger picture of
why we were even studying the material in the first place.
