Greenland Review Write a short review of Greenland and post it in your journal on the wiki. Consider the accuracy of the information presented and the effectiveness of that medium, and that particular play, as a tools for shaping public opinion about climate change, clearly label this entry Greenland Review.

I found the play Greenland to be educational and full of good information. It was able to cleverly incorperate a vast group of both apinions and aprotches to the issue of global worming and our corbin print. From what I could tell the information they gave in the play was all accurate but it was also very much scude to represent a particulare perspective (although it was the one that I myself hold).

? Reflect on what you learned over the past couple of weeks about climate change and consider the questions below. Write-up your thoughts about all this in your journal on the wiki, clearly label this entry Reflections on Climate Change. What do you believe the take-away message to be? Which of the modalities did you find most effective at communicating that message: reading, museum, or theatre? Why?

Atmosphere Questions ? Which specific aspects of climate change did the designers of atmosphere choose to focus on?

The designers of the Atmosphere exhibit choose to put a very significant stress on climate change at it relates to global worming.

? How well sourced was the science and technology discussed in the kiosks?

The information in the kiosks seemed to be very well informed and at the same time put into digestible formats.

? What was the most surprising thing you learned?

I was most surprised by their predictions for the future. I have of course heard of scary predictions of the effects of global worming but to have the information presented in the way that it was both shocking and educational about what actions can, are and should be taken.

? Which of the interactive kiosks did you find most engaging? Why? Which of the interactive kiosks did you find least engaging? Why?

I played and interacted with most of the kiosks and found the one which involved the extraction of fossil fuels to be most engaging but I think that that night have been because I liked the game the most. They all did a good job of mixing information and entertaining/interactivity but the space was all so stimulating that it was very difficult for me to force in on any one activity/station.
