Thinking Geographically from Global to Local Take some time to freely and openly explore your own personal items (computers, notebooks, pencil cases, clothes) and various different items in the classroom. Record where your items come from or where they are made. Think about the things that you use most at your home. Do you know the name brands of the items that you use the most? (i.e. TV, Samsung, Computer, Apple) List these items and their country of origin. Try answer these questions about each item: What company made them? Where is that company from? Where was your specific product made? Enter this information in your blog.

Flying Solo for the Presentation Today the some folks in the class presented their projects and I was one of them. Instead of being in a group of students, I chose to be on my own. Vlad tried to get me to join his group several times but I wouldn't budge. I don't like working on group projects unless you have the option of being alone. Most of the time I get stuck with my friends who don't want to participate at all and then I am left doing all of the work. I do like presenting with another person but not when they are presenting just my work and none of their own. To ensure that this doesn't happen, I work on my own. Another big reason I do not like to work in groups is because of the chance that one of my members got lazy and did some last minute copy and pasting. I've heard it all before trust me, there is no say in it and no escape, everyone goes down for it even if it wasn't you. If you are a member of it, you did it. I presented and I do not think that ...
