Back to the Original

After presenting my idea to Phil and the class yesterday I realised that my proposal wasn't what I thought it would be. Even though I had gotten good feedback from my peers, the idea still lacked depth. In essence I proposed to produce content for a european based culture awareness campaign for secondary schools. The idea was to inform secondary students about how their european counterpoints lived - favourite music, what their school is like, what they hope to do when they finish school etc. This is all well and good however I failed to ask the basic question - what makes it interesting? why would secondary school students care? and how is it interactive?

After coming to grips with these questions I realised that my proposal wasn't really going to work - which is frustrating seeing as we're a fair bit into the module already and I'll have to catch up with the research work. I have decided to change tack - QUICK! I have returned to one of my initial ideas that I had as I started to brainstorm which I'll outline in the next post.
