Hau+V.


 * What __really__  makes up your identity?

What makes up my identity is I like to have fun and work together with everyone and the most important thing is like to work hard and never give up. My name is Hau Vu and I am in the 7th grade and I live I’m Cary North Carolina.


 * What __really__  makes up your sense of place?

What makes up my sense of place is I know how to act when I’m with certain people, if you are with a teacher you should not talk about other kids or if your with a another student you shouldn’t be making fun of them.


 * What roles do your identity and sense of place play when you work with others in a group project?

That is really important that you get along with everybody that you work with because if you don’t like them and they don’t like you that will be a hard time for you two.


 * What are the qualities that you bring to the GLIP conversation that will help you make a contribution to your global group?

That is also very important because you understand other people because America is a place where freedom grows there are people all around the world at America.


 * What is one local problem (where you live) that you believe needs to be addressed? Suggest some steps could you take to try to solve it?

There is a lot robbery in my neighborhood; we could have watch dogs, or cameras outside or doors.

I think the concept of robbery will be a good one to discuss during the GLIP project. There is a lot of theft in certain areas of Raleigh and Cary. What do you think causes the robbery? How feasible are those solutions to the problem for your neighborhood? - Mr. Gore


 * Finally, some problems have been around for a long time. What qualities do you think a person must have to step up and try to solve them?

People could talk to a counselor at school or just go to therapy. One more thing is you could just stick up to the problem.

Phase II: Sense of Place

Use these questions to help you determine which picture shows someone else why your “place” is so special to you.
 * Does a scenic picture represent the beauty you believe that your town has? I live in Cary North Carolina, This is the State Fair, I go to it every year so I can go on the rides and eat the best food on earth and just have a good time.
 * Does a picture of a group of people represent and show a warmth and friendliness that your town has? I would say where I ive is probably the best place I know we have alot of people in Cary that are friendly and caring its probably the best place ever.
 * Does a statue or building convey the feeling of history that makes your place important and unique? Is there a cultural event that represents the values of your home location? That is a good question, There is this one building i don't know what it means or what it repersents but it looks cool cause there is a big hill on it and you should climb on it.

What are your initial thoughts about how your image addresses the questions above? Later, you will be working with the members of your group to create a travel package that includes visits to each group member's home location (see Phase II)
