Globalization: Good or Bad, is a good idea and we could use a video, but if we have a video, than we should definitely have a debate too. Don't worry Dave, that was just a fluke public speaking experience, i did fine with ms. jackson's 40 minute presentation (heck, got the best grade of my group). Besides this is only 20 minutes, so i'll be good. But yeah, we could each pick a country/region or topic involving globalization, research it, become experts, and make a heated debate using the information we gathered. We could each have pros and cons; or 2 of us could do pros, and 2 do cons if we're doing globalization as a whole.

We could first explain our research, show a video (if we want), and then have the debate, that should take up 20 minutes. But we still have plenty of time, so let's not worry too much about not getting the Comparisons project done.

Oh yeah, the newspaper idea is EXCELLENT. Let's use the newspaper as a creative handout, explaining our information. It'll be creative, I highly doubt anyone else would do it.

World Cultures Comparison (Final) Project on Globalization

David Groff, Jeff Barry, Greg Nicosia, and Michael Plasmeier had to for the World Cultures final project, compare a specific topic among different nations. As we brainstormed, it morphed into more about what globalization is all about. The project consists of a paper along with a 20 minute minimum oral presentation. We chose to show a introduction video and then debate: globalization: good or bad?. It was lots of fun and I learned a lot about globalization, a force changing our world today. So if for good or bad, globalization will change everything. Our teacher said no one has ever done globalization as a topic. That was surprising. So here are all of our brainstorming and work. Enjoy.

Grade:198/200

Points off for poor time management in debate; but movie was superb and we really knew what we were talking about. Good job group members!
