Reflection

Last week, we met with our groups to finalize some plans for the website and zine, we also created a schedule for the rest if the semester. We also presented our ideas and even plan to a group of community members and past AMST students. The feedback we received was extremely helpful. Our guests thought we were putting to much into the events, so much so that it became 2 events. They also gave us feedback on what they though would and would not work for our event and website. One of our guests recommended instead of the website, there is an app people can download and they can take their own walking tour following the app when they wished. I really liked this idea because it is more interactive and user friendly then the website. Our biggest concern still seemed to be if we were doing a fundraise opportunity. Curtis recommended Black Cherry Puppet to receive our donations, but I think at this point, it may be too late to create and receive the items to sell. Our group, the past, planned out dates to have all information put in and finalized for our website and zine. This week, I have been shortening the places abstracts to use on the website and in the zine. This has been a little difficult for me because in a couple of the abstracts, all of the information seemed important enough to include but it is too long to include in the zine or website. Our group is finalizing all of the historical information, we have a date set to have the timeline, the places abstracts, and important people abstracts complete.
