Phase I: Who Am I? What's My Place?


 * Hi Chase! Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I see that you are a leader and in a group setting like to be in control. It sounds like your leadership qualities are something that will be great in the workplace as you mentioned. This will come in handy, and it's great you realize that group projects encourage people to work together. Awesome! I see that your family means more to you than anything-which I am finding as a common thread when I read through other group member's posts. I enjoyed your perception of a local issue on over crowding in cities. Do you find this as an issue in your school as well? Again, thank you for your post. Try to finish up the remaining questions and move on to Phase 2. Great to meet you! - Katy (group facilitator) ||

i am a leader when i want to be or i can be a derterent when i want to be. i have many traits such as respect also when i chose to respect somone and i am very competive especially when it comes to sports and that is somthing i cant help. i have a family that means more than any thing to me.
 * What __really__ makes up your identity?

i think what makes ones sense of place is where one belongs and where one thinks and feels comfertable with the suroundings around them
 * What __really__ makes up your sense of place?

when i work in a group project i can not help but to take control it is not that i am a control freack but somthing about me can not stand to be a follow.but i think group project are good they bring people toghether in a working enviorment.
 * What roles do your identity and sense of place play when you work with others in a group project?

being active and haveing to want to help to solve problems
 * What are the qualities that you bring to the GLIP conversation that will help you make a contribution to your global group?

the cluttertness of the citys in north carolina and all over america. you would think after hundreds of years in america that there would be enough building and structure for people to live in and to work with. but every corner you tur mor forests are being kocked down destroyed for human use.
 * 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?


 * 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?

I think that to solve any problem in your own home or all around the world a person must have motivation or the will to want to solve the problem. they must have detication because solveing problems such as these will take alot of work and you csnnot just quit half way through the soultion.

Phase II: Sense of Place

**Go Canes! Haha. Thank you Chase for posting your pictures for Phase 2. I agree that sporting events and other events like festivals and parades can really have a strong impact on community. And even when the team does stink-it is still fun to go! I like how you had a picture of the city skyline for Raleigh, but also focused in on the monument in Chapel Hill. It seems as though history, culture, and the city itself make up your sense of place. Again, thank you for your post and don't forget to go and add your thoughts on our travel package.**

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?
 * Does a picture of a group of people represent and show a warmth and friendliness that your town has?
 * 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?

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)

there are many beautiful and scenic places in raleigh and the surounding area. i think that the cupola from UNC chaple hill is the most memrable place in all of raleigh. this monument is very historical and has been on the campus for many years. the BB & T building is a very large building the in fact it is the tallest building in down town raleigh. everyone in raleight know this building because you can see it from miles away driving into down town raleigh. i chosse the picture of the RBC center/hurricanes stadium because the team really brings the city together (when they dont completly stink).

Phase III: Identify Local Issue:

What is your local issue? Pollution and liter

What can you do to be address the issue? go around cleaning up the streets and clean up the the pollution around falls lake and local places to help our local places

What is the global impact of your local issue? if this is goingon in my city means that this is going on all over the world
