Luis and Elysia’s Presentation

For our final project we interviewed members of the adolescent lit class asking how they would respond to a moral quandary involving the end of the world. We compiled their responses in a podcast, complete with sound effects and an analysis. The piece is available for listening here:

We would love your reactions to the quandary and responses! Please feel free to comment below.

Moral Quandaries

Today Luis interviewed people in the class and asked them to answer one of the moral dilemmas he wrote last week. We recorded their reactions and responses in Audacity. We got 13 people to answer! Next time we will record Luis’s voice as the narrator of the radio podcast and we can start putting all the sound clips in the right order.

If we interviewed you, thanks for answering our questions!

Quandaries

The first thing i did was listen to Radiolab and how they were talking about escape as in how to escape from problems and stuff like that. Then we discussed about quandaries and how peoples reactions are different no matter of their sex or age. So now I’m going to ask people different quandaries and make them into a podcast.

Update.

Hi there, fellow human beings.

Joe and I are still working on our latest project, W.W.S.D. We have taken most of your opinions for the main question. Some of you we gave time to think, while others we asked spontaneously. I explained as to why that was in the last update. I also wrote down some new question for the refection that will be also in the video. Today we did get far.

Later,

Hanna

First Meeting

Today was Luis and I’s first session together. With only 20 minutes, we took the time to discuss things we were interested in, everything from Greek mythology to the advice we give friends. Looking forward to having a full class period to work next week.

hola mi nombre es luis

Hi my name is Luis. I like to listen to music and do things that people think are wierd just for the fun of it. I like to read philosophies and then use them as advise towards my friends to help them with their problems. I don’t know why but am very lucky and if i want something i somehow get it a week or so later without me doing anything. I act very childish but i can make grown up decisions. I love to point out awkward moments and make them more awkward for people. I like doing what i can to help people and after school i like to walk home with my girlfriend and her younger brother.
