[2008/06/03 10:01] IM: Stephe Roux: The UcanTu exhibit brainstorming meeting is starting now at the Tech fountain. IM me for a TP.
[2008/06/03 10:01] Dancers Yao: I wondered if there is information about the educational requirements for the exhibit that is listed on the virtual tech site
[2008/06/03 10:01] IM: KK Jewell: Sorry cannot attend am going to the airport
[2008/06/03 10:03] Dancers Yao: did my question come thru?
[2008/06/03 10:03] You: sorry Dancers, was afk briefly.
[2008/06/03 10:04] Draxtor Despres is Offline
[2008/06/03 10:04] You: yes and no - I think the educational requirements are pretty similar to those for Art Film & Music
[2008/06/03 10:05] You: but they haven't been spelled out AFAIK
[2008/06/03 10:05] You: yet
[2008/06/03 10:05] Dancers Yao: wondered if there ws a reference for the education requirements
[2008/06/03 10:05] Draxtor Despres is Online
[2008/06/03 10:05] Dancers Yao: thanks I will add that to the wiki and see how they sound
[2008/06/03 10:06] You: would you like to see the requirements for AFM?
[2008/06/03 10:06] Dancers Yao: yes
[2008/06/03 10:07] You: ok, just a sec, let me rummage in the attic and see if I can find them;-)
[2008/06/03 10:08] Mars Voyager: hi
[2008/06/03 10:08] Dancers Yao: hi
[2008/06/03 10:08] You: Hi, Mars, good morning
[2008/06/03 10:09] You: hows your Explorer doing lately ;-)
[2008/06/03 10:09] You: Dancers, the best I caould find is this: "• This exhibit is educational; I learn something from it."
[2008/06/03 10:10] You: not too helpful ;-(
[2008/06/03 10:12] You: which UcanTu technology were you interested in featuring?
[2008/06/03 10:12] Dancers Yao: thanks....I'll keep working on it! The education part is of particular importance....it's the witness.org technology...
[2008/06/03 10:13] You: great, that's a good one.
[2008/06/03 10:13] Moya Janus is Offline
[2008/06/03 10:14] Dancers Yao: it's listed as Creating a Universal Language in the Ucan Tu projects
[2008/06/03 10:14] You: with that I think you almost HAVE to be educational, b/c without understanding thei sort of issues the 'witnesses' are dealing with, it would be meaningless
[2008/06/03 10:16] Dancers Yao: yes...that's what i hope will happen...I work on projects in community psychology, and have worked with human rights issues, so this is a special opportunityy
[2008/06/03 10:17] You: it's a great project, I saw from your profile that you're a psychologist
[2008/06/03 10:18] You: and a member of the screen actors guild - wow!
[2008/06/03 10:18] You: does that mean you get to vote on the Oscars?
[2008/06/03 10:19] Dancers Yao: yes. but I apply it to research and social issues, like disability rights......I've only voted for the SAG awards
[2008/06/03 10:19] IM: sunflower Aichi: TP me plz
