Tim+Walker's+Project+Proposal

a) who is working on the project (identify your collaborators if this is a joint project);  **  I will be working on this primarily by myself. However, I have enlisted my associate pastor to help me narrow down the choices of types of web sites to use for our forum. Additionally, once this is up and running I hope to involve several members of my church in the collaborative discussions and resources.  **   b) the thematic area and methodology used (technological application, academic/scholarly paper; resource for professional, community, congregational use; a teaching/learning project (series of lessons, web-supported resources, action research project, etc.);    **  This will be a technological application utilizing web-supported resources as well as a teaching/learning project designed specifically for our church congregation and others affiliated with us from a distance.  **   c) the media you intend to use: print, audio, video, web-based text, slides, etc; ** We will be using web-based text. **  d) which course objective(s) are supported by the project. The Proposal should be pasted into and or uploaded as a Word document on your personal page on the wiki. Ask Scot for help as needed.   **  Though I can imagine the implications of each of the five Course objectives on this project, specifically 1, 4, & 5 will be supported.  **  **  1.Investigate the technological tools that enable the networked world.  **  **  4.Describe and apply approaches to living with integrity in the networked world.  **  **  5.Participate in the "Networked Culture".  **
 * My project consists of designing and implementing a collaborative discussion/resource forum for engaging in theological conversations concerning media. I am envisioning a place to collaborate on film reviews and to use film as a jumping off point for theological conversations.  **
