1) What does the clip says to me?

            Adter i have watched the clip it comes to mind that every comes together, peace and the people dancing together so everyone fits in and no one has been left out. Another thing that the clips say is that everyone comes from different culture and still fits in to the rest of the group

2) What questions would i ask about this video?

       There are quite a few questions that i want to ask they are :

                * What was the meaning of this video? And why did he show this video to us at this time?

                * Who paid for the peoples fee for traveling around the world

                * How does this video ties in with the project?

3) Why was it shown at this time of the project?

                     I think this video was shown becuase it some how ties in with the project and it is important for us to see the video becuase the teacher could show us another time during another project but he shown us this video during this project “Ethics and Media” so it must some how ties in with the currect project.

I’ve watched a video and this girl said the myspace “sucks” its for stupid people who upload stupid stuff to make them look ‘cool’, well i dont really have a myspace account so i can’t judge if myspace is ’stupid’. i think what she said might be ture becuase i used bebo before but i just didn’t really like and bebo and myspace is almost the same. My next step is to find out if myspace is it really ’stupid’.

 She said myspace is stupid but she has her own myspace account so if she said its stupid why doesn’t she  just delete her myspace account when she says its stupid

  • How do you feel the media portrays social justice issues?

                 The media trys to mislead us into some way and making us watching the media so they can get ratings for the media.

  • Has it been difficult to find articles on social justice issues why/why not?

                No not really becuase more then half of the articles online are social justice issues becuase it affects a whole group of people, and there isnt much moral issues.

 

  • Do you think that the media operates from a moral framework? Give evidence by using your research.

            Yes because i believe that the media all get the same reports and information and they just sometimes add and take out suff from the information and trys to mislead us into watching the media.

1) red sunsets occurs in more pollution airs because the frecuancy of the red light rays are the largest and they are absorbs slower than those of the other colours, so the light rays are absorbed by the pollutants in the  air more slowly than those of the other colours and so they red light rays are seen by us after after a while, they are seen by us during a sunset. The pollutants absorb more red light rays and so release more of the red light rays during the sunset creating a more impressive sunset.

2) rainbow occurs when it rains and a white light ray hits the rain droplets and the colour of a specturm occurs.

A long-sightedness can only see object in a far distance. Long-sightedness person sometimes sees objects blurry and they have trouble seeing objects up close. They can use Convex lens to fix these problems.

Shor sightedness person sometimes have trouble watching the T.V, movies. sometimes hold objects up really close. To fix this problem people can use the concave lens which fixes these problems.

What have you learnt today?

  I learnt that you can not just look at a image and say the person looks really happy but he might really be sad, or frustrated about something, and theres sometimes a story behind a media/image.

What have you learn about thinking to yourself?

   When ever i think to myself about something, i always think of something related to life or something i have seen/heard before, or through some kinda of media.

1. Open and read the “How to write a critique” document in the resources menu.

Describe what is a critique.

   Critique is an outline of the critcal things in an article.
2. Outline the FOUR stages in a critique.

  •  An Introduction
  • Summary of the article 
  • Your analysis or critcal comments on the original text
  • Your evaulation or conclusion

3. Can a critique be positive? Discuss.

             A critique can save people some time instead of reading the whole article you can just read about the main themes or the criticle things.

4. Critique the accuracy of the following articles:

        In the first film ”The Beijing Olympics: Are they a trap?”, and they thinking Beijing are digging large wholes and will cover it up with branchs, leafs and the american athelics are goign to fall right into them. Beijing claims that these large wholes are for the olympic venus.
