I have decided that I would present this inquiry project about the space travel in a form of a documentary with me as a narrator, and remixed documentaries as the background. I almost finished the remixing documentary part. I just need to record my voice now. I think this project was a fun one.

I need to start taking videos from documentaries, by myself, and by making them. I hope that I will be able to finish the filming by next monday, so that I can start editing, and making my own documentary. I am actually pretty sure that I have learned lots of things in this project already. However, I think in this inquiry project, I will be spending more time with the presentation.

I continued doing the second inquiry project. I have already finished the research by watching documentaries from youtube and also looking up some informations on google. I plan to make a documentary about the space traveling. since i have 10 more days, I hope I can finish it by the due date.
The second inquiry project
Today, I kept watching the documentaries about the space traveling in order to find out what the dangers and difficulties of space traveling are. I found out lots of things in the youtube videos. As I began learning more and more things, I began to realize that what I knew was not all. Before I started this project, I felt like it was going to be too easy to finish since I know lots of difficulties in space like food problem and space.However, as I watched the videos, I found out that radiations, small pebbles in the space could also threaten the astronauts in the space. I am sure this project is going to be an interesting one ^^
October Scavenger Hunt
1a) Learning to cite and source – Scavenger hunt
1b) From Wikipedia Oct. 12. 2012
- “Quotations: Add an inline citation when quoting published material, whether within quotation marks or not, whether using direct or indirect speech. When using footnotes, the citation should be placed in the first footnote after the quotation. In-text attribution is often appropriate.
- Close paraphrasing: Add an inline citation when closely paraphrasing a source’s words. In-text attribution is often appropriate, especially for statements describing a person’s published opinions or words. In-text attribution is not appropriate for other forms of close paraphrasing, such as if you paraphrase “The sky is usually blue” as “The sky is often the color blue”.
- Contentious statements about living people: Editors must take particular care adding biographical material about a living personto any Wikipedia page. Such material requires a high degree of sensitivity; do not leave unsourced information that may damage the reputation of living persons or organizations in articles.
- Exceptional claims: Exceptional claims in Wikipedia require high-quality reliable sources (see WP:REDFLAG):
-
- Surprising or apparently important claims not covered by mainstream sources;
- Reports of a statement by someone that seems out of character, embarrassing, controversial, or against an interest they had previously defended;
- Claims that are contradicted by the prevailing view within the relevant community, or which would significantly alter mainstream assumptions, especially in science, medicine, history, politics, and biographies of living persons, and especially when proponents consider that there is a conspiracy to silence them.
- Other: Opinions, data and statistics, and statements based on someone’s scientific work should be cited and attributed to their authors in the text.”

“Do not announce my death. The fight is not over” – Lee Sunshin
this quote is also one of the quotes from a great general in Korea. He died on the sea protecting Korea from Japanese when they tried to invade us. He said this right before he died. he didn’t want the enemy to know that he was dead because he knew that they were afraid of him, and if they found out that he died, they would get much stronger.
4) Am I free to copy facts and ideas?
“Yes. You are free to report the facts and ideas embodied in another person’s article or web page. Copyright only protects the expression — the combination of words and structure that expresses the factual information — not the facts themselves.” – https://www.eff.org/issues/bloggers/legal/liability/IP
This means that you are allowed to copy facts and ideas from someone else since it is called ‘learning’, however you can’t copy every single word of it or lie to other people that you wrote it.
second inquiry project
we started a new inquiry project today. I decided to do a project about space travel. I will research about the things about the problems of space traveling, and also see if my new way of moving a space ship using magnet would work or not. I look forward to it.
