On the plus side my nervous feelings surrounding the project are pushing me to put more and more work into my research and writing. On the downside however this class has began consuming a lot of my work and attention span. I now have all the research I think I will need for the final project, and all of my ideas have been typed up and I hope are ready to go onto the final website. I&#8217;m a little hesitant because despite being ready, our group hasn&#8217;t yet revealed our completed final work to one another yet.<br \/>\nWe had an amazing meeting this Wednesday and I&#8217;m feeling really excited about the things we have planned for our website. Our members all seem to have great work done and I know they both excelled in research after getting to see some of their amazing resources during our meeting. We also had a great meeting with Tierney that proved to be really helpful in terms of our website planning. We got to draw out how we wanted our webpage to look, as well as learned some awesome web developing skill I hope to be able to put in action during our web implementation phase.<br \/>\nOur group has set deadlines for a lot of final pieces so I think that it all should fall into place well in these next few days. The main portion I am feeling a little nervous about now is all of our ideas coming together on the story map. Our meeting was really helpful in getting me to rewrite some of the ideas I had jotted down as well as helping to re-shift my focus to help support the team. I had a great conversation with Sam that really helped me change up two of my story map points in order to help the flow and work better with the work he&#8217;s producing.<br \/>\nI am really excited now to see the final project, My only hesitation is that without a concrete deadline from the class before the last due date I&#8217;m worried about everyone on the team being ready at the same time. However, despite all of these worries I have a \u00a0feeling it will all work out.<br \/>\nHere is an awesome artifact I found, I was worried about not getting an image of the letter from Guyuk to Pope Innocent but found this Creative Commons image of the Persian Letter! What is awesome about this is it&#8217;s the letter that John Di plano Carpini brought back with him to deliver.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/stor.artstor.org\/stor\/2eec2ac5-d670-481a-bc7a-2ea9585ecb1e\" alt=\"\" width=\"495\" height=\"2593\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As we near the end of this assignment I am becoming increasingly nervous which is proving to both be a good and a bad thing.
