In the morning, we attended a blogging your journey class.
We learnt that media is anything that conveys information which first appeared just
after ice age in a valley. Firstly, we learnt about the history of media. Media
is first found in the form of cave painting. We also looked at the first
sculptures and coins. We learnt that paper was first developed in 105 AD Paper
by Cai Lun from China which is a crucial and important discovery which enables
easy writing to share information. The construction The Dome of the Rock which
is made in 637 AD is fascinating to us as not only is it elegantly built, but
also it holds important Christian values and contents of the third holy book
written in Arabic. Secondly, we learnt specific languages and vocabulary used
in media and the components of a story. What make a story interesting is the
climax and the unexpected twist. Moreover,
we logged on to WordPress and wrote our first blog! It is very exciting and
fascinating.
In the afternoon, we went to Cantor Art centre. Our
favourite sculpture is The Thinker. Also, we had a fabulous tour to Hoover Tower for sightseeing where we
can overlook the campus of Stanford. Signing out the first time in the tour, we
could explore the campus on our own and it was very relaxing. The counselors
are very nice as well. We had a great day!
