Team+14

=Team 13 and Team 14 will now be working together as one big team! Please redesign your new wiki team page here - Team 13 and Team 14= Hopefully with a larger team you will find it easier to meet teammates in SL and move forward with a successful international exchange. You should not feel that you need to get everyone's approval before taking action. However, you should try to meet with and/or get the opinion of as many foreign teammates as is possible. But if you find after your best efforts that some or many of your teammates are not participating then please **take action** with those that are participating and **write down your decisions on the wiki** and be open to responses after the fact. Those that are active in SL and on the wiki will be rewarded with a better grade (as determined by your teacher), while the slackers will suffer the consequences. Also, now that you have a new wiki team page, try to keep it clear and neat. You do not have to re-create everything from your old pages. Simply list your team members names, create links to the old info, and do your best to decide on meeting times in SL. Moving forward, I recommend creating new linked pages for new discussions and topics, this will keep your Team page clear and easy to follow. Good Luck! -Elmo

Hi everyone. I agree with Shawn. All flags are very cool and peaceful. I like 1st one.

Maya

October, 19. I'm Myungmee from PUFS. I wrote dowm my comment about my team rule and team flag under GENEVIÈVE's comment section.

Hi again, There are some more flags for team 13 or 14 since four groups cannot gather... by the way the first (cosmos 03) and the third flag (universalis 04) of the precedent list (message below) are likely to be the 12th and 11th team's flag... this one is about differents coulours for the different horizons we all come from; earth being the link... http://shawncoeyman.wikispaces.com/space/showimage/EARTHCOULOURS_01_copie.jpg Those are more like a metaphor of the conquest of a new world... Itried it with team 13, with a bit of humour... http://shawncoeyman.wikispaces.com/space/showimage/SPACE_FLAG_01_copie.jpg http://shawncoeyman.wikispaces.com/space/showimage/SPACE_FLAG_02_copie.jpg http://shawncoeyman.wikispaces.com/space/showimage/NEW_WORLD_TEAM_copie.jpg Maybe it's too late to choose... Shawn.

Hi everyone, First of all i’d like to apologize for introducing myself so lately. I had troubles with my internet connexion but i guess i will be ok now… My name is Shawn Lubrano ( shawn Coeyman in SL) and I’m a 25 years old student in architecture in Toulouse (France). Since I was the last one to choose a group ( because we didn’t have enough computers then) I had to meet the two students of laval left (Dannielynn Rives and Maelys24 Qunha). We decided that I should be in both of their teams. So now i am in four teams (11,12,13 and 14) with adjacent sites. We also talk about the possibility of gathering our space and labour to enlarge our perspectives… I guess that’s a decision that all four groups have to discuss about…But i find it’s a great idea ! I’ve red the four pages of my teams and gathered the things I liked to elaborate my proposals (if it’s not too late !). I’m copying this text and the flags i’ve made on each of the four teams’ pages so you can all think about it… I can meet every afternoon ( 8h00-12h00 SLT i guess) principally on mondays, tuesdays and fridays. I could possibliy meet other days as well if needed. ( i'll try to put these dates in all the grids each teams made

-Concerning the name first, I didn’t get the meaning of ROCKETEAM, but why not after all. I like the COSMOS of team12 and the concept behind it but I think that, maybe something like a UNIVRESAL stuff or something like that would be more like getting to evryone, touching everyeone… I tried with UNIVERSALIS on some of the flags…Tell me what you all think about it… -For the rules I find that Team 14 is the most eloquent. But i guess that everyone should look at the other teams rules and discuss what’s the best for our group(s ?) -now the flags : i’ve made two series, one for one team the others on the same ideas but for the four teams (11,12,13 and 14) I hope the pictures are not too heavy…

For one Team http://shawncoeyman.wikispaces.com/space/showimage/cosmos_03_copie.jpg http://shawncoeyman.wikispaces.com/space/showimage/universalis_03_copie.jpg http://shawncoeyman.wikispaces.com/space/showimage/universalis_04_copie.jpg

For "the unity of four Teams" http://shawncoeyman.wikispaces.com/space/showimage/cosmos_teams_01_copie.jpg http://shawncoeyman.wikispaces.com/space/showimage/universalis_teams_01_copie.jpg http://shawncoeyman.wikispaces.com/space/showimage/universalis_teams_02_copie.jpg

I can still make all kinds of changes on them if needed… ps: I also like Genevieve's flag...

I need some ideas for our flag
our comments...PLEASE WRITE SOMETHING BECAUSE IT'S VERY IMPORTANT

I want to become a doctor so a stethoscope could go on the flag to represent one of my interests. - Corey

HERE IS MY PROPOSITION (GENEVIÈVE). I DON'T HAVE COMMENTS FOR THE FLAG LAST WEEK SO, I TRY TO DO SOMETHING WHO REPRESENT THE SCENARIO OF WUE.
= Our comments......= === October.19 Hi, I'm Myungmee from PUFS. I didn't visit here last week for preparing midterm exam of graduate school. I love team #14 rules and team flag. Thanks, GENEVIÈVE. I have questions. In addition to GENEVIÈVE's flag, there are other flags in this page pages. That means team 13 and 14 should make one more team flag again? How about team name? I like One in the Same ( Corey suggested) for team 14 like other members do. That means we decide that will be our team name, don't we? Hope to see my team members at SL soon.

= = =

(1)
all be viewed as equals and make decisions as a group.

(2)
We should use a democratic system of government so that everyone has a say or vote in what we do.

(3)
If someone has somethign to say they should feel free to say it (Freedom of Speech).

(4)
Meeting times and functions should be agreed upon following majority rule so that the best situation can be worked out for the greater part of the group.

(5)
We should all contribute to team projects and those who don't should be made aware of their neglect of the group and made to participate in the future.

(6)
I think it would be best if we agreed upon a certain clothing or color to wear to promote group unity and make members of the group easily identified. This will be especially helpful during the first few challenges and projects.

(7)
Any disputes between members of the group should be settled in a civil manner and not disrupt the group dynamic.

(8)
There should be no violence within the group, either verbal or physical.

(9)
Certain projects should be headed by different leaders depending on certain aspects of the challenge. This couldl be decided upon by a vote.

(10)
Acceptance should be one of our groups foremost qualities and something towards which we should strive.

10/12 - Hey guys I was just wondering what we wanted to do with our plot of land in the University Exchange area. We should really start thinking about this. I was thinking we should start by putting in some sort of social area where we could meet? Also please post your interests for the flag- that needs to get done soon. Thanks! - Corey

Hi, my name is Maya from Hyogo, Japan. I'm glad to see you in team #14. I love to go abroad. In this summer vacation, I went to Thailand with my best friend. It goes without saying that there was beautiful place. I studying English in KGU, but I'm not good at English and computer. So, this way of studying is little hard for me. I didn't understand yet about how to do SL. Does anyone teach me about that? By the way, Make a team name and flag is good idea and our team rules are wonderful.

See you. Maya

Hey team,

My name is Chris Turo. I am a senior at SUNY Cortland, which is near Syracuse, in Central New York. It is about four and a half hours from New York City, in case you were wondering. I study English and I like writing and watching sports, especially football. As far as the SL thing goes, I am not proficient at all, but this seems like a challenge that I look forward to tackling. It seems that we have a good team with some smart individuals so I am sure that we can all work together nicely. Hopefully I'll see everyone soon. Also, I agree with the amendments for our constitution deal; it makes a lot of sense. I'll be working with you all soon.

- Chris Turo

Hello everyone,

I suggest 2 other things

Firstly, everyone will have to write his name in a reply to show to other team members they read the topic. Second, we could choose a coordinator who will have to make sure the tasks are made according to the project's schedule. He will synthetize what's said in discussions, stimulate conversation, moderate the topics and make sure everyone respect their engagements.

For the team name, I'm agreeing with Corey, it's a good team name and for the flag, I'm interested to create it, but I think like Corey, the flag should be a mix of our interests or our field of study. So each team member will have a part of him in the flag. But to do it, I need some ideas from you, or some suggestions, interests or elements.

See you next time

Geneviève

Hi, everyone!!

I also agree with Corey about our team name and I recommend Corey as a coordinator. I have no objection to it.

Justin

Hi.guys this is Myungmee( 10a.m. October. 5) I''m so glad to read your message here, Justin and Corey. I took this SL class yersterday and got to know there's no way to open SL program with my computer. But I can communicate with you through this page. Corey, I like your team name, One in the Same. For our flag, how about putting any kinds of symbol which represent each contry's culture instead of dove? The shape could be circle or star. I hope the architect student in our team help this project. For our rules, I like them as well but they are a little hard for me to understand. Could you make them simple sentences? bye.

Hi, I'm myungmee Horan from PUFS. I'm really excited to work with my team # 14. We need to make our team name, 10 rules for team and make team flag. If you have any ideas, please post it. I introduced myself in PUFS Students blog, but I will also put my intro here as well.

Hi, My avata name is Myungmee Horan from Busan, Korea. I'm Tesol graduate school student in PUFS. I'm not sure if it is OK to introduce myself here and do our team project( I' m in your team). If not, tell me. I'm not good at computer.( More worse thing is my computer isn't consistent with secondlife. I need to buy a new version video card driver) My professor told me to make a team and do the team project in this week. I think this page can be used our team page if you don't mind. Anyway I'll introduce myself first. My real name is same with the avata name and I've been teaching English at middle school for 13 years in Busan, Korea. I'm always sturggling studying English and trying to be an efficent English teacher. I'm teaching 9th graders this year and I love teaching them. My future dream ( Maybe I'm too old to tell the future dream!!) is to teach the students who really want to study English. Unfortunately I've had few students like that so far. I'm married and have 2 kids. I posted my picture in PUFS photo page. If you want to see me, why don't you visit there? I always thank that I had chance to live in the U.S. for 4 years. I lived in Chicago for 1 year and New Jersey for 3 years. That experiences encourged me to study English harder and gave me kind of confidence that I can speak English better. That's why I started Tesol graduate school and I'm really looking forward to meeting my team members and working with them. Corey, you are the only native speaker in our team and young who might be computer expert so I think you can be the team leader and help us. I'm supposed to make a team name and 10 rules. I don't have proper name for our team now, but if I'm doing my project in rght way, I'll post it later. Bye and take care.

Hi, my avatar name is Justin from KGU, Japan. I'm currently majoring in Policy Studies at KGU. I'm 20 and my hometown is Osaka. I've lived in Switzerland for 3 years and studied English, French and Japanese. I want to practice English through this course. Now, I can't think of any good team names and 10 rules, so if anyone has any good ideas, please tell us. Anyway, I could download Second Life.

Hey! This is Corey. I have some ideas about our project for this week. For our team rules, I think we should (1) all be viewed as equals and make decisions as a group. (2) We should use a democratic system of government so that everyone has a say or vote in what we do. (3) If someone has somethign to say they should feel free to say it (Freedom of Speech). (4) Meeting times and functions should be agreed upon following majority rule so that the best situation can be worked out for the greater part of the group. (5) We should all contribute to team projects and those who don't should be made aware of their neglect of the group and made to participate in the future. (6) I think it would be best if we agreed upon a certain clothing or color to wear to promote group unity and make members of the group easily identified. This will be especially helpful during the first few challenges and projects. (7) Any disputes between members of the group should be settled in a civil manner and not disrupt the group dynamic. (8) There should be no violence within the group, either verbal or physical. (9) Certain projects should be headed by different leaders depending on certain aspects of the challenge. This couldl be decided upon by a vote. (10) Acceptance should be one of our groups foremost qualities and something towards which we should strive. As for our group name...I'm not too sure because I haven't talked to everyone yet. My first idea would be "One in the Same." I know its not that strong but it shows that we are united, despite our cultural differences. For our flag we could have a circle to show our group unity or maybe a dove and olive branch for peace? Colors could be white for peace and another bright one to make it stand out! Maybe our architect student, maelys27, could design this? Please add your own thoughts and we can work together to figure out this project. I'm looking forward to hearing your opinions on what I posted and your own unique ideas.

hi, my name is Cathy. Though one month passed after this group starts, I couldn't participate in this group because I was busy. I'm sorry. then, I want to introduce about me. I live in Hyogo, Japan. I have 2 part-time-jobs, so it might be difficult to see you in SL. However, I make a effort to write here more actively. I'll fight.

see you. Cathy
