Recommended: Introduction about group work

One obstacle I had was part of my graduation project.  For this project we were split up into groups and given a specific aspect of the Holocaust to research, my group had the rise of Nazism, which we would present to multiple groups from the community.  My partners and I decided to present our topic in a museum style with a poster board that was the timeline of key events, a video, and two 'exhibits' , a person or event, per member.     Presentation day came and our fifth member has not shown up yet.  We tried to contact him but no response and this is troubling because we are missing the video file and the material for his exhibits.  I tried to stay calm and keep everyone else in the group calm as we just continue to set up.  At the last

  • Darwin, Booker T. Washington and the Feminist Movement: How They Have All Influenced Modern Society

    1504 Words  | 4 Pages

    For my Project Learning Summary I chose to focus on two people and one movement that I believe have a strong impact on society today. Each of the topics has had an influence during their respective eras, and each proved that their work has gone onto make changes in the world as we see it today. I first looked at Darwin, for his work on natural selection and the significance it has had on science and religion. I then took another look at Booker T. Washington, and how his stance on integration of African Americans into a “white” society was at the end of slavery and what his efforts have done since. Lastly, I looked at the Feminist Movement and the efforts that were taken for improving equality as a whole in society.

  • R V Lavallee Case Study

    I created each section, following the requirements of the project, while adding in slides that would help further the understanding of the case. Moreover, I was in charge of allocating each member a part of the project and did so by starting a group chat, which I would check and regularly correspond with each member, helping them find information in both academic journals and online resources. For my specific part in the slides I focused on the controversial aspects of the case such as the guarantee of acquittal and stereotypes that may come about due to the branding of battered women and the use of expert testimony in which I focused on the charge to the jury and the usefulness of the expert. I used the textbook along with online resources and academic journals to understand both issues and to solidify a comprehensive anecdote on the topics. Finally I proof read each of the group member’s work and formatted it so each side looked the same and were appealing. I then compiled the sources used and put them into APA format in accordance with the schools citing

    We thought of doing a performance however one of us was uncomfortable with acting in front of others. After deciding with exhibits, we start brainstorming for designs. As we did more research, we saw the Ginling College was an important building during the Massacre so we decided to base our design off of the Ginling College. So we brought all our supplies from Walmart and start building at home. One of us measure a black foam board to make a roof-like title for the poster. On the other hand, one starts printing quotes and paragraphs to put the exhibit. We decided to color coded our words. For example, all quotes were outlined in black. We then start adding the titles and subtitles to our exhibit. Since it’s suppose to look like a college, we made the sides look like doors. We also decided to make a model of the Safety Zone so it’s easier to understand the story. We cut a cardboard into a rectangle and then measure the smaller picture. We multiply the measurements by 4 then paint it into our board. To make it more detailed we use Styrofoam and toothpicks to build railroads and

  • The Holocaust Should Not Be Taught In The School Curriculum

    491 Words  | 1 Pages

    The Holocaust is an important time in History and an important subject to be taught in school. Teaching the Holocaust explains to students that it started because of prejudice against not only Jewish people but also of disabled people, homosexual people, Slavic people, Romanian people, Catholic people, and many others. It also teaches students that silence and indifference to negative situations lets them continue by explaining to students that Hitler and the Nazi party rose to power and were able to carry out their evildoings because most people did not do anything to try to stop them.

  • New Museology: Modernizing Museums

    The District Six Museum is a very good example of New Museology. It has a range of displays which are not in a set order (doesn’t matter which display you look at first), often updated and interactive. It makes use of audio and visual aides to make the displays more interactive. The museum is run by the community not the state and is in a building that was once part of District Six. It is very appropriate to have a museum like this in post Apartheid South Africa so that people will never forget what happened during Apartheid and so that people who were affected by apartheid can tell others what happened.

    We can learn about the Holocaust by examining the day to day experiences of one victim. We can learn many things just by one victims experience, such as how they lived, what they could and couldn’t do, for example, they could not ride automobiles but could ride the ferries, they couldn’t go to the movies, go to school, play any school activities. Anne Frank’s diary entries show us about the way individuals respond in time of chaos or danger, for example when one of then was out buying some things they needed and the Nazi police was doing a rousting and was going to look for any Jews out, they were extremely worried.
