Module 2 Reflection
Our goals for the Wikipedia module were to learn about Wikipedia’s history, learn about Wikipedia’s processes for adding/editing information, determine the cause of the 91% male editing dominance on Wikipedia, and to create our own Wikipedia page with information. Jessica and Emily had the great idea to …
For my third assignment of the week, I decided to do the Play it Backwards assignment, worth 2 stars. I decided to do a scene from The Wire, and I wanted to take a sad scene and make it happy. I used the shootout scene from season 2 episode 9, …
