Collaborative Project
Notes on Collaborative Project:
• The map was divided into continents because the map of the world would be too big. This would be too much for one to take in at one time. If the world map was made small, then one would not be able to read the cities.
• Unfortunately, there are many cities in the world that are in need of food. The cities that one could click on now (if this was an actual site) could be updated. New cities could be added or old cities taken away, depending on if the needs have been met for that city or not. On the website, one would be able to click the cities and get information from that city. This would include total amount given to that city to date, the needs of that city and current missionaries working in the area (if applicable) in case one wanted to contact them.
• The toolbars and “click here” buttons would work on a website with the click of a mouse; however, because this is power point one cannot do that on the slides.

COLLABORATIVE PROJECT: FUND THE WORLD
MEMORANDUM
TO: Dr. T. Fishman
FROM: Cathie Jackson
DATE: June 24, 2008
SUBJECT: Cover Memo for Collaborative Project
Our goals for this project were:
To state the mission of “Fund the World”
To design a website for this non-profit organization (which is an admirable cause)
To provide an opportunity, via a website, to make “Fund the World” internationally
visible and accessible.
To make it easy for anyone who wants to contribute to “Fund the World” to do so.
I enjoyed working with David and Amy on this project. I took it upon myself to contact one of the founders of this organization. After a lengthy and rewarding conversation, I felt a strong desire to do something to help their cause. This really lit a fire in me to do my best to work with my partners to produce an effective website for “Fund the World”.
I feel that, give our time constraints, we achieved our goals. However, our website project is only a start. Given more time, we would make all the maps interactive. One could click on a location and get a brief history of that specific area, a summary of the area’s most critical needs and a link to contribute to that specific area.
P.S. The “founder” with whom I spoke was both excited and grateful regarding our project. The organization has been wanting to create an interactive website and looks forward to seeing our project.
