Yesterday morning (11/1/12) we turned in our completed intergraded
projects in the library. In class we took a survey which asked our opinions on
the project regarding future projects. After this we went down to the library and
viewed everyone’s projects. I thought the projects were great; many students
came up with several interesting board games.
Today in class (11/2/12) we talked about a Ted-Talk video
which was on modern day slavery. It was interesting to see how many students
thought modern day slavery was a myth. Slavery is most definitely illegal but
human trafficking or sex slavery is still a large problem in our world today. After
this we read a document called: "The Interesting Narrative of the Life of
Olaudah Equiano." This article discussed the life of a slave and how they
were forced to live, this included: starvation, physical abuse, emotional
abuse, harsh labor and several more horrific conditions and ways of life for a
slave. We were then asked to create a story board in our groups on our assigned
reading.
