Cornell Square Park Week 3

We TRACEers have finally made it half way through our program. Within our third week of working we have covered so much in such little time. On Tuesday we started out with a game called The Soapbox Activity which involves us speaking for 30 seconds on a subject and trying to convince the other speakers to give us there 30 seconds and there “soapbox”. After that we practiced with new recording mics and interviewed each other on different subjects. Wednesday we took a field trip to the Chicago History Museum, the Peggy NoteBart Nature & Science Museum, and Green Market. Our interviewers took this opportunity to interview other people visiting the museums. Thursday we started out with a peace circle to air out some differences. When we were done with that we reviewed roles and responsibilities and reviewed the audio we had in our interviews from the field trip. Today is our third Friday and also our payday. We discussed our checks and any problems or concerns we had. After that we went out into the neighborhood to gather information and more interviews for our radio piece about adultism. We ended with some instructions with audio editing with Jayve.
