Week 12 Blog

This week, we have been gathering a lot of our research and figuring out the media we will be using along with our OLLI footage. I found a few good videos and Ted Talks that will maybe be good to include in our videos. It has been challenging to figure out what we will all include in our website. I made an outline that has the main things we should be covering in our website. I think it will help a lot to see what we have done so far and what we still need to do. I really want to try to make our website as interactive as we can, since we don’t have a ton of media gathered originally. I think an interactive map showing ageism in different countries would be cool, but I’m not sure how to do that. I also thought an interactive quiz would be fun. I was thinking about doing an “Are you Ageist?” quiz, to maybe bring up some things that people may not think of as being ageist. Other than that, I think my group will need to collaborate in order to get several ideas going. I think we’re getting a good vision of what we need to be doing.
