Journal Entry 2 (Group Project)

Go Big Blue!!!
Today, we received an email from Dr. Gilbert stating: “Multiculturalism is a powerful topic. How can involvement with technology advance our understandings across culture? In many ways, the Internet itself is already a tool for crossing boundaries and learning about cultures. What are some ways to harness this for your presentation?” In the group today, we discussed how we can incorporate technology in multiculturalism and arts classroom. So the group was playing around through the internet and we were getting impatient. So I added, why not make profile for a country. They agreed and the girls picked what country: KOREA!!! (their country of course). So, we got all the media, visual arts, short stories, music, and videos of different dances and put it all on one page. The other thing we said is that we want it to be clean not too cluttered like myspace. Our inspiration was facebook because it was clean, user friendly, and not too flashy.
