Why is CONFLICT important?

Without conflict, there is no story: no TV shows, movies, radio dramas, comics, novels… and life would be boring.

The storyline happens due to the conflict. Conflict is introduced in the rising action. Change happens at the turning point. Conflict is faced head-on during the

climax. Conflict begins to work itself out during

the falling action. Conflict is resolved during the resolution. This homework is worth 10 quizzes. Each

quiz is numbered.

1. INTERNAL CONFLICT There is only one type of internal conflict.

1

MAN vs. SELF

The character(s) struggle happens in their own mind(s). This may be a choice between right and wrong, or

related overcoming emotions or mixed feelings.

The character fights against social traditions, rules, values, beliefs, or ways of doing something.

This can be used to comment on positive or negative aspects of real society (satire)

I personalize my learning about the types of literary conflict by completing this

three-part activity.

Related Stuff

New concepts learnedWhat new stuff did you learn when you

did this assignment? While I’m doing this homework, I

learned to value time and coordinate with other classmates.

I also learned to become responsible and practical.

NEW INPUTS8

This reminds me of…Connect the new stuff you learned to

events in your own life. I learned not to be complacent instead

you have to work harder for it and initiate to coordinate with the group members and leaders, because during my past events I became negligence but because of this activity I learned a lot.

CONNECTIONS9

Usefulness in real situationsHow can you use what you have learned

in some situations in your own life? I will apply what I have learned . Then If

I have enough time to complete my school activities I will immediately do it in order to avoid procrastination.
