How can you communicate cultural diversity with images?

     When it comes to cultural diversity, there are many ways to show it. Images are most likely the easiest way to convey this message. Flags are a great way that to show the different types of ethnicities that exist in Richland. Also, images of food related to the culture could express cultural diversity. Landscapes, songs, and native sayings of different lands can also be used as a great way to express Richland's cultural diversity.

The Internet is a Free for All?

      Taking music or images from the internet -- you can't use anything you didn't make yourself.
This is False, you cannot take any music or images from the internet you didn't make yourself, UNLESS, you have permission by the creator or you have paid the copyright fee.

Capstone Topic and Invention/Innovation

     My capstone topic is in relation with helping reduce mental illness stigma and misconceptions, as well as to increase mental illness awareness and knowledge in schools. I will achieve this by constructing a curriculum for teachers that teaches them how to deal with mental illness in their classrooms.
