Project_Finders

Our Group Members have increased by 2! We warmly welcome Student Number 308048 (Zack) and 308050(Janet)...

Ok some ideas you must consider and cover

Check on myswitzerland.com and ensure that you do NOT just copy what is already available The focus must really be on area Luzern (where can I go skiing from here) And most of all on the international student factor (what on the topic of ski is important for international students coming to study in lucerne or area Lucerne) You must make sure you perhaps get some interviews from students who actually went skiing, how fun was it, how expensive was it, how long does it need to learn skiing The differences in skiing and carving and snow boarding

What to consider when choosing to ski or snowboard or carve What alternatives are there (ski walk and sledge) Where to go with different options Skin issues, normally asians have problems with the cold and dry air up in the mountains, ask different students about the best skin products for asian sensitive skin in swiss mountains

Cool visual animations Eventual a self made movie of imi students skiing (if possible) Eventually interview of ski teacher on what they think a beginner should consider Downloadable fact sheets like the one attached for download which has all information on one single page. How to warm up, how to protect for the sun Best links on the web Shoot some cool how to pictures sequences (for example different ski styles, how to break, how to wear ski shoes, how to make your first experience on snow) Tag the pictures and upload a group on social network always tagging it with studyinlucerne.ch to create awareness about this site (this applies for ALL content, which must be tagged with keywords like studyinlucerne.ch, study in Lucerne, study in Luzern, study in central Switzerland, imi university centre etc)

Checklist for what to take with you Better bring it from home or purchase here in Switzerland Better purchase of better rent Prices and conditions At the end it must cover different channels, technologies, contents and all must be linked from within studyinlucerne.ch (suggest as well where to place and what should be the visuals used )

for advanced check as well something like this [] ( i know it is in german but use translation tools from google and as well check the movie)

Crowdsourcing can make use of a community to design a new webpage. They can also re-design and in the process create new ideas or improve on the older ones. Crowdsourcing can also solve existing issues like what studyinlucerne is facing.
 * How or what ideas of crowd sourcing can we add to the website studyinlucerene? 22/02/10**

One good example of crowdsourcing can be found in our ICT project. While we are working on this project known as studyinlucerne, we are doing what is known as crowdsourcing. We work in different groups to make the website more interesting and appealing to the potential target market.

Crowdsourcing also reports current information on studyinlucerne as well as promotes lucerne as a study hub by providing more information to the audience or the potential customers.

One way of crowdsourcing in specific to this project could be to create a forum where opinion, ideas and views could be shared. There should also be proper maintainance of the website and perhaps the webmaster could employ a service support assistant to manage the site and provided customer service or enquiry when needed.

Crowdsourcing can help to shorten the time needed for researching on a particular subject or topic. They can also help to generate new ideas. While ideas are being generate by the participant or the public, an emotional bond is formed. This is because they like the fact that they are contributing something useful and that people are finding it useful and using it.

 * Role undertaken during the project work:**

Information was generated, brainstormed, researched as well as gathered together as a group. Kenneth and Han went skiing on Engelberg to experience what skiing was like first hand. Janet and Zack went as well but we went separately on two different days. Cheryl did some additional reading on our topic.

Cheryl was in charge of the Blog updates and created the short video clip from Animoto to be put on Youtube with the help of Kenneth.

Kenneth was in charge of creating the prezi as well as facebook as one of the tools being utililised for this project work.

Han was in charge of creating zoomerang and also the suggestion list( similar to a fact sheet) in the blog.

Zack was in charge of flicker and also help with the suggestion list( similar to a fact sheet) in the blog
