Jamboree!!!

I enjoyed Jamboree a lot because i was able to find out what others had learned and how they related it to something they could show or entertain people with. I however did not understand why jamboree was helping us relate everything to Human Diversity. i think that instead of just trying to entertain people everyone should have a poster or something that showed how the course related to human diversity. Our class could have done the same for example human diversity would relate to music becaue there are many different kinds of music and different people like different music. I don't if that would work but i think that is something that could added to make the experience more of a learing experience. I also thought that Jamboree was a good way to see what all of my friends had been learing and what they had worked on. i know my friends enjoyed watching me in the movie and thought that it was cool that we had the guts to tape ourselves line dancing even though we didn't look so enthused. i thought that there were lots of cool booths in the jamboree. one of my favorites was the bug booth where the cookies had bugs in them. i didn't try any but i thought it was cool how they made them with the bugs in them. I also thought that the imperialism booth was cool too but i thought by the end they had over done it a bit. I also thought that the genocide survey was cool because they wanted our opinion about the genocide and i just thought that was cool. I also liked the family drama table and i also heard that their play was quite cool. All the booths were cool and looked like they had put a lot of work and effort. I enjoyed preparing for the jamboree as well. We had a blast cooking the food and filming it i know and i also enjoyed line dancing and playing in the junk band even though i don't look that enthused. I think i may have looked happier if there was no camera or if the camera would have been hidden and i would not have known it was there. I am very camera shy. If you had to ask me if i would do the jamboree all over again i would say yeah i would like to do it again because i had fun. Also i think that jamboree should stay but just be changed a little bit because it does give us the freedom to choose our own course and it also still gives the faculty some choice in the matter also.
