Currently in class, Tierney is giving us a broad range of tools to use for our digital project. One of which includes Metadata. Basically this is whatever defines a piece of information such as author’s name, copyrights, and other varieties of cites that provides useful data about that particular material. It was something that we see in our daily lives; only until today did I realize how to describe this common sight.
\nFurther into this class, the teachers have introduced to us an account on Shared Shelf that enables a community media archive\u00a0as another resource for our silk road. To clarify, students and professors alike have the ability to upload media\u00a0relevant to the silk road class into the Shared Shelf account and, with proper citations, share it with the class. All media\u00a0will have specific bibliographies to be certain of avoiding any copyright issues; as we’ve learned in class, (with both teacher and professor repetitively emphasizing on citing every uploaded image).
\nThis is a great way for students as a whole\u00a0to share the media\u00a0that have been seen through their daily internet usages. With the whole classroom given this ability, the SharedShelf account will, without a doubt, be filled with very useful information relevant to our Silk Road project.
