11/18/10 General Assignment

I would like you to consider how you could turn each Memorial into a MEmorial that examines this historical incident in terms of healing this cultural wound using the internet/electracy. Each student will click "Comment" and add their comments to the one left before them by another classmate. In this manner you are communicating with one another. For example, for the WWII Memorial in Washington, DC, I might comment that a website that featured original WWII war posters might show others the impact this war had upon the country - particularly when it came to rationing. Another student, reading this comment, might add that not only could posters be used, but still photo shots from that period could also be uploaded, and find one they could post on this page. In this manner, each student should read the post before it and add to it. You will add a post ("Comment" section) for each "page" on the website, so you will have 4 posts total - one for 9/11, one for the Vietnam War Memorial, one for Lincoln, and one for WWII Memorial. Each post should vary from the other, so do not copy and paste your same post on each page. It would hardly make sense as it should follow from the conversation that is being posted. :)
