Communicating cultural diversity

You could use different images like flags of countries to show diversity. Also we can use different languages to so diversity. When you think about images about diversity you see a lot of pictures with the world and hand of all different races around it. I want to make like a serious cover but not so serious because it is a yearbook. Cultures are so different there has to be so many things that you can use. The world picture is a good option just change it up from how it always is. Food is also another thing we can use because every culture has different kind of food.

The internet is a free-for-all?

No the internet is not a free for all. You can not get music or pictures off the internet to sell because you did not make them your self. If you are using it for school it is fine because you are not getting money. You still can not plagiarize on your school work. When it starts to involve money that is when you have to use your own work and not get it off the internet.

Capstone Topic and innovation

My capstone topic is about cold cases. I would like to bring awareness to how many cases are going unsolved each year. By bring awareness to it I can help stop the amount each year.

My innovation to my topic is to make a game so the judges can play. I want to make a game about a cold case and have the judges try to solve it so they can have the idea that more cases should be solved each year.
