What was the point of your work? //The point of our work is to inform people of what the Presidential Candidates believe on important issues. It makes information easy to find instead of searching through hundreds of sites and quotes. Because not all issues are on every cadidates homepage.//

What were the strengths of your messege? //The strenghts of our messege would be our ability to phrase difficult and bulky sentences made for older, more informed politicians down to simple enough sentences for the average teen to understand. In other words, it's not hard for people to understand.//

What were the weaknesses of your messege? //The weaknesses of our messege is our inability to be more open and creative about things. We should have related for to the young voters and made it more appealing to the eye to attract their attention.//

What were the strengths of your wiki? Examples? //The strenghs of our wiki are that we have over ten videos on each issue and valid quotes and information on each candidate.//

What were the weaknesses the weaknesses? Examples? //The weaknesses of our wiki are that we had to cut some of our independants and issues that weren't as dire such as flag burning to save time on bigger things.//

How does your final product show the results of careful planning? What is the evidence? //All of the pages are organized with quotes, information, and pictures. We spent time decided and plotting how we would establish and run the site. All of the pages are neatly organized and readable.//

How does your final product show academic growth? What is the evidence? //We spent a lot of time doing research and learning more about politics. I never really understood the difference between a Democrat and Republican, nor did I realize one Democrat can have views that differe greatly from a fellow Democrat. I also learned more than I knew about current issues facing Americans. You can tell this because of the great amount of info we have on each page.//

How does your final product show technical growth? What is the evidence? //I learned how to make videos on PhotoStory3 for Microsoft. I also learned how to create a video on Viddler. I even made my own account to use for the videos on our Wiki.//

Were you creative? Evidence? //I think we weren't as creative as we could have been but we went all out working on this project, and we made intresting videos about each issue.//

Are you proud of what you produced? Why? //I am extremely proud of our WikiSpace, because it took a lot of time and effort to create so many pages. There are over 100 pages that we spent almost two weeks working on. I personally think this Wiki is informative and that a lot of people voting this year will use it as a source to go to.//

Any comments(If you have any comments that should remain private please wiki mail them to me): //Why an A-? Because we worked super hard on this. We didn't spend a lot of time goofing off and we even met up to work outside of school. The only thing I don't like is that we weren't exactly creative.//

What do you believe your grade should be? //A-//
