Curation Progress Report

This week my curation has been going better than before, I have found new information that i want to include. I was searching for specific videos to include that may be helpful. I really want to have videos becasue i believe it will make  my curation a lot better and easier to understand if there is a visual experience. Im happy with my progress because I found a video that gives an interesting look on my topic. This has been an imporant detail that i wanted to include, so im currently content with my work so far especially becasue I was able to find a good video.

I still need to find more sources and that has been my toughest challenge for this whole project. I have been having some trouble with finding quality sources for my curation. I want to find the right ones, but that has been a challenge so this week I hope  to find the rest of the sources I need.

I like the project so far becasue I have been able to research something that im really interested in. Although I have been doing most of the work outside of class, I would appreciate more class time. I believe that would be very beneficial becasue it could really help me pace my project better.

Curation Progress Report

My curation topic was difficult to find, I wasn't very sure about what I wanted to curate and not only that but I wasn't fully understanding the curation process or purpose. As I began to read over the instructions and began doing my own research I had an idea of what I wanted to do. My biggest interest is soccer, so I knew I wanted to pick a topic related to that. It was then difficult to select a specific topic because I didn't know what aspect of the sport wanted to focus on. After I had met with Mr. Allen we came together and finally figured out my topic.

We had finally agreed on my topic being, the things people wouldn't know about soccer. At this point I have done some research but I'm having trouble on deciding what to include as my information. I have looked up certain facts about the sport and reviewed certain rules and I think I might use some of the information for my curation. One of the biggest obstacles for me has been finding good information that will fit and make the curation a success.

From this point on I need to do the following, I need to find more valuable and specific information supporting my topic, organize information appropriately, and meet with Mr. Allen to make sure I'm going in the right direction.  I want to make sure I find more information on finding specific rules and interesting facts that people who enjoy the sport or even people who are new to the sport should know.

The project for the most part is running smoothly, I believe it would be very helpful if we could be given a little more class time to work on this. I think class time would be affective in getting work done.
