For my final multimedia project, I want to expand on the topic of my last presentation, discussing why a lot of Hispanic school's do not succeed and then showing the things that Escuela Vieau does to counteract this. Instead of just focusing on the school itself, I would like to go out into the community, now that the weather is nicer, and just walk around and take pictures and notes on what I see. By doing so I hope to get a better grasp of the experience of living in a Hispanic community, as well as knowing what their culture and lifestyle is like. I feel that if I can get a better sense of the feel of their community, I can then show how that influences Escuela Vieau both positively and negatively. This will allow me to highlight how the school counteracts the negative influences, and embraces the positive aspects of their community and culture.
I might also consider incorporating how art influences the community positively as well (as seen in murals around the community), since I worked mostly with the arts and crafts activity at Escuela Vieau.
