Joel+Reflection

My Reflection 3/12/10 I think the last few days were great. We practiced on note taking; by watching TED talks. These note taking tips and movies were usefull because later when we work, we can take notes properly. These TED talks were about gender inequality and how girls were mistreated and didn’t have enough education, the talker was Sheryl WuDunn. Lots of the information was seriously... well serious and talked about important stuff. The other TED talk or YouTube video was about KIVA. KIVA is a company that gives small amouts money to the poor people. After a while the poor people have to pay back the amounts but not necessarilly everything paid at once; they can pay a few cents every day! I think that is a really useful process. While watching the TED talks we took notes and in the end, reported about what we took down. After note taking, Ms. Peters talked about making a wiki. We spent the last few days creating, talking and editing our wikis.
