The first thing I thought that was important is to not trust all of the media. We did media in semester 1 and a little bit in semester 2. In the class, we talked about what was happening in Gaza. Out of the class we talked about Gaza, there was a class where we search different news sites. I was shocked because when I searched a few of the sites, there were sites that were writing completely different things in it. One is the right information, and the other is writing the wrong information. After I saw this, I thought I can't trust the media all the time. Every day, I check the news using my phone and also TV. I am hoping that the site I am looking at is trustable, but I have no chance of knowing it is not true unless I research specifically about that. So I was a bit interested in how to know if the site is telling the truth. Also, there are sites that are biased. For biased, we did this a little bit in semester 2. I think if the site is biased, there is no way of knowing the tru...

 In this class, we talked about the war that is happening right now. Honestly, I only knew that the war is happening right now. I didn't know anything about why the war happened, who caused this war, who is the bad one, and so on. However, in this class, I was able to understand all of that. I was impressed when I saw the picture which shows the number of countries that joined Nato since 1997. Most of the countries didn't join Nato until 1997, and after 1997, they start joining. Looking at this, I understood that people change their minds quickly.  Our group hasn't finished our website yet and also, I was absent for 2 weeks so I haven't taken my picture to put on the introducing page and also haven't taken a picture with 4 of us in our group so we are planning to do it tomorrow. For my page, I will finish it by tomorrow's class, so that in tomorrow's class, we can look through all the pages and see if there are any mistakes.

 Our group had a chat using zoom. We hadn’t really chosen what topic we are going to write about, so in this class time, we all chose a topic for our page. The big theme is media. I changed my mind from what I was thinking and chose to write about the situation in Gaza. There is lot of things to write and teach about this topic so I chose it.  The next thing we need to choose is how we will prove the theory. I am thinking of presentation because it is the easiest way to give information. However, I also want to put some videos and pictures so that it is more easier to understand what I want to say.  I haven’t met my teammate face to face to talk about our website so before I meet my teammate, I will roughly think about how my website page is going to look like. If it is possible, I will start writing in my website page.

 In this class, I made a group for my final assessment. I wanted to make group of 4 people but because it is not in class, I couldn’t find 1more person so I am going to email him and ask him if he wants to join us. He usually work with us so I think he will join our group. In our discussion time, each person in our group said one topic they want to do and do about that topic in the website. I used my memory and my blog to find what topic I want to write about. As a result, I chose to do the topic when we did the “Evil Essay”. This was the topic I was most interested in and wanted to teach other people. We haven’t made our website yet and I won’t be in class next Tuesday so I will ask my other teams member to make website as much as possible so I could work on it a bit at home.
