So yesterday I read a blog, and according to Rebecca Phale, a little girl calling out on one of the original versions of Guess Who and Hasbro. She was mildly speaking about gender inequality in the game. originally, there was 15 men and 4 women in Guess Who. Which is very interesting for a young girl to do this but now that I think about it, it really did make the game unfair if u picked a girl. With the first question from your opponent being "is your character a girl", and if you said yes, they could knock off 75% of the characters in the first question.
Things are starting to wind down for the MJHS Project Discovery. I just interviewed 2 more people to post in the next week for my presentation. I am starting to work on ideas of how I am going to present my little game to the class. There is only 2 more required blogs for the project but I plan on going to keep it going for a while depending on school work. Make sure to check out my interview!
This morning I just posted the first mystery interview. It is fairly easy to guess who it is but I meant for it to be so it can gradually get harder. To find where to look at the interview it is to the right of the blog tab under mystery interview, or you can just click here. I will be changing the interview every 3 days from now on and for the last week of the project I will post one every day and 3 the day I will present the project so everyone in the class can guess who. I am very excited to finally release this to the public so we can all finally enjoy Mystery Interviews.
Participating. Do you help your community? Do you want to start getting connected? If so, check out my new research article on how to get involved with your community by joining a sport, club, or helping make food for homeless people! I thought since I was trying to bring the community together, it would be a great way to get other towns connected as well!
I have been sick and had so many snow days in the past couple months. It is starting to affect my time to work on this project. So, if you notice I am lacking some that is why. On the other hand, gathering more information has been great and I hope everyone enjoyed the Guess Who research from last week. I will be researching more information tomorrow so be prepared to see more research.
Guess who! So the other day remember when I had said I found some interesting topics to research? Well, since my website is about guessing who I am interviewing, I decided to research the origin of guess who. Did you know that in 1987, when the first original Guess Who? came out, there were four times as many men as women to guess? Later after that Hasbro added 10 more women to the game and multiple sets to choose from to play. If you want to check out even more info on this, check out my research tab!
Brrrrr it has been as cold as ever in Morton this winter! We have missed
so much school it's hard to even get a full week of work in for our project anymore. Either way, I am starting to get more creative ideas for my research angles for this project. Mr. Vandenberg notified us today that we will be doing a presentation at the end of the quarter. It is always interesting to check out someone else's site grow and get bigger as mine does to. Good morning everyone, this week has gone really well except us
missing a day to work in class yesterday because of a snow day. Everyone has been very productive with their time in the computer lab this week while including me. Today I sent out an email informing all of my old teachers at Grundy Elementary, my current teachers, and some other students at MJHS. Many replied and were willing to help which is good to have some variety in who will be interviewed for my website. Hello once again. Today I was assigned to do some research on topics to help improve my fluency and questions while interviewing people. I am actually learning a lot more than I had expected and I am having a blast with it, this project has been going very well and I think a lot of people are learning a lot more than just sitting in the class and being logs in desks (which is not fun). I also put a spot on my page with links to a couple of my friends accounts to help them out and they are sharing my link on their site so it all works out. That's pretty much all that's happened this last week.
Good morning everyone, how was your morning? Mine was great. But that's now what I wanted to ask of you Mortonites. If anyone is willing to participate and be interviewed (In person), Just let me know at school or over email. I am still very excited for this site and hope you guys are too. There will be about 15 questions asked to describe yourself. This weekend, I will be planning on interviewing someone with a video feed attached and I will randomize who i will post on what days so nobody knows who it is basing it off of its order. Please send a Form on my contact page to discuss to be interviewed.
