MY PROJECT

media type="youtube" key="mLgvERYHsRQ" height="385" width="480" [] A daily life video about IMI

=Another idea about my LT=

1. My topic is about potential of shopping opportunities in Switzerland ( I still thinking about the long tail...what should I do with it?....) 2. These are major points I will focus on: shop high & real quality fashion products in EU such as clothes, bags, belts, sunglasses; Swiss Watches; Perfumes from France; Shoes from Italy and Sale Seasons in Swiss 3. I might link to www.swissviet.com - a forum of Vietnamese students who are in Swiss and who intend to come to Swiss

As this topic is not supported by the lecturer because it's too wide. There fore I might come back with the topic that I have had response: "Beauty of Nature in Luzern"

''as for your niche market

taking your ideas and if you are good in taking pictures, why not trying to find those spots of peace which you described and said that they exist here in switzerland

ask around other students which are their favorite spots of peace and which make them happy, the favorite bench, the best pick nick, the best walk way around campus

see if you can build a kind of map to find, locate, and visually present such spaces through words and visuals

you may additionally link it to some exercise which students do like yoga or tai chi (if some do it at all) explain in your blog what YOU do to find peace and how you see similarties between vietnam and switzerland

this would become a very personal blog and message, where you would need to let the audience look into your heart and touch them

see if you can find a vietnamese blogpage where you can sign up NOT a usa or swiss one

hope his helps and keep me informed through email and wiki page project diary

Dear Mr. Ritzel,

Sorry that I have tried to attach the video clip but it might be too heavy to upload! So, I will bring to your office on Monday!

Secondly, about idea of swiss attraction to Vietnamese students.

I think that the only similarity between Vietnam and Swiss is that the natural life. I find out that the scene around IMI has a very natural beauty. It looks similar to the scene of the countryside in Vietnam. In Vietnam, we love it. We find a peaceful feeling in front of that nature. I think it's important for a person who just leave their home country to foreign country.

Hope to see your advice soon!

Thank you so much!

Dear Mr. Ritzel,

This email is about what I intend to do to develop my LT in a blog page. Firstly, my topic is about the friendly and beautiful nature around the school.

Therefore, I intend to: . Collect pictures that I have about the scenes around the school where I usually walk around to relax and have fun with my friends . Ask for other friends' pictures about their enjoying time with the nature around school with many activities which are not only walking around but also healthy excersises such as swimming in the lake, yoga or taichi on the ground behind the school . There might be some interesting places that others didn't know about . Ask for their feelings: whether they feel relaxed, peaceful, more energy . Link to other web 2.0: I might make a video by myself about the enjoyment of students in IMI with the nature around school. . Potential web 2.0 that I intend to post those pictures is: o www.zoto.com : I like the style of its logo. The pink flower on it might tend to focus on young people like ourselves and female students who prefer to take pictures and walk around more than male students. I think they will enjoy to see the pictures on this page. o www.showzey.com : The first reason I choose it is also because of the logo- a green leaf which is fit with my nature topic. Secondly, it is because ''Showzey will collect all of your photos along with shared photos from your Gmail mailboxes, Facebook account, Picasa albums, and Flickr albums. You can share photos, copy them between sites, make funny captions, create RSS feeds, etc.''- that is such a convenient tool to publish the pictures! o www.stupeflix.com : '' a rest web service that turns your pictures, videos, and text into professional videos. Differentiate your service with video produced from your own content. Create one or thousands of video ads and spread them all over the web. Instantly expand your product line to video (mobile, web, and dvd)'' - I need a simple & sufficient tool to make a creative video and I think that is what I look for.

Hope to see your advice soon so that I could know whether I am on the right path or not!

However, I still don't clear where I can find a space to open my blog? what ever blog pages or...?

Thank you so much!

Laura Thai.

=**31.08.2010**= My have chosen Opera.com to open my blog page because this community blog web give many advanced tools for users to enhance their blogs



It is supported to be a blog page from my own country- Vietnam. However, because the unstable quality of those local web blogs, I decided to choose Opera as a worldwide community web blog. Another advantage of this web blog is that you can find those bloggers who are from your country to add a friend, so that I can I achieve my LT objectives (attract the locals)



As Mr.Lukas's suggestions. I have added description & Tags for the video on You tube- IMI natural beauty: + Description: A walk around school...Whenever I get stress, these things make me feel better... + Tags: "IMI natural beauty" "Luzern natural scenery" "Luzern mountain view" "Luzern Cow" "Luzern Flowers"

=**08.09.2010**= Mr.Lukas asked me to use prezi for my project....

However, I think it will be boring with just text and pictures because we can't use music in prezi. Anyway, I will try to make it more interesting as much as I can!

In order to make a cool prezi show, I intend to prepare different video clips which will help me tell a story on prezi by an interesting way.

This is my first video clip that I took on last Sunday. I just edited it and put it on youtube with Name: A small vineyard- jsut at the back of IMI University Centre Description: Nice to see you are growing up day by day! ^_^ Tags: "Luzern vineyard" "vineyard in Switzerland" "vineyard IMI University Centre" media type="youtube" key="AJ6H694gg-w?fs=1" height="385" width="480"

More video clips will be made in next days.... ==
