Everyday, while I do my daily activities, I notice participation all around me. People of all ages, backgrounds, and beliefs can be found participating in dozens of activities every single day. California County Educational Technology Consortium defines participation as, “to be involved in doing something or to take part in an activity or event.” While I agree with CCETC’s definition of participation, I think that it is important to not only do a certain task, but to put effort into and enjoy yourself while completing the task. In this picture, the girls participate in playing with and training Rocky, the dog. While they put effort in working with Rocky, they enjoy spending time with each other while doing so.
