So...what's real?

For our second PBL (as seen below this post) we had to create an exhibit (I think) for the Carthaginian Scrolls (which don't exist) for the Museum of Religious Antiquities in Bangkok (which , like the scrolls, doesn't exist either). OK... At the beginning, the group was, needless to say, a little overwhelmed and confused. We then decided our main goal was to draw parallels between Ancient Rome and America, from its history to, unfortunately, its fall. What started out as a confusing project quickly became a little clearer. Using our C-map (as shown above), we decided to make a documentary, one similar to the History Channel or National Geographic. The group members all portrayed experts and professors for interviews that we incorporated into our documentary. One group member put everything together and let me tell you. All I could say was wow! This was a great example where the whole was greater than the sum of the parts. We had all seen our interviews and various pictures we collected for the documentary, but the finished product amazed us all.
