Global Perspectives
This team had its differences, as most
teams do. However, ours were not large differences; our appearances
and hometowns were not all that different from one another. The
major difference was our opinions on religions when we first began
this web site, World Religions. Beth, our researcher, respected the
many different religions, and knew some of the basic facts and
beliefs of each, though she did not really understand them.
Michael, our “techie”, did not have an in-depth
perspective of the many religions. Kaitlyn, our team captain,
believed that Christianity was the only true religion and did not
understand why there were others. Courtney, our photographer, was
reluctant to even delve a little way into the various religions,
but was determined to look at them with an unprejudiced eye. These
were our major differences, and we used them as a team to develop
our website web site.
The topic idea for this web site was
chosen due to its worldwide outlook. Religions are not centered in
one area; they branch out across the continents, entering the lives
of those who occupy them. The diversity of the topic of World
Religions was used to create a learning environment for people of
one religion, so that they could learn about the other religions
around them. Many students in our school and community belong to
different religions. Some of these students were interviewed and
their opinions were included in the website. Our team tried to
learn about different religions and to share our understanding of
other religions and ways of life.
