Good looking girls at Walung. See this is what we called "Beautiful Girls"

We Are One, Aiming For Excellence







Without teamwork, I believe we would not have made it to this point. We struggle together, progess together, and laugh silly jokes together.

Hello everyone, my name is Brook Shield, if you don't know me, I'm an actress acted on the "Blue Lagoon", at Walung. . . lol. So how's everybody? I miss dancing by the shore at Walung and dinking coconut. . .not. . .lol. So how's our cool instructor?

Final Presentation

My group which is consisted of four members (Willynda, Isobel, Tulpe, and Leeroy) does some last minute changes and decides to work on a new topic, A Guide to Neighboring Islands in Micronesia, for our final project. Our goal is to pinpoint to others where Micronesia is on the map, and provide some information about several elements in the cultures that exist throughout these Micronesian islands. The project will involve a powerpoint presentation which will include a movie, a few handouts containing rich information about a few existing cultures within these islands. We want to educate others to have a better understanding of the geographical locations of these Micronesian territories and to obtain some sorts of understandings about these cultures.

Successes and Challenges

Since we have decided to design a course that would focus on improving teacher performances, we now have a challenge infront of us. We may not be able to come up with an exact curriculum standard or benchmark. However, we are confident that the ojectives with the goal would be self-explanatory. We are currently deciding on the objectives so that each member could design his or her theme to be consistent with the objectives.
