UNCC Writing

Who is talking about litereacy? Undocumented youth.... Who isn't talking? ????

I really like the concept of this webpage. I like that it gives anybody, and everybody a chance to tell their "story" if they choose to do so. I also like that it's not just about writing, but includes photography and media.

I like this website. Personal writings about teen life problems, success, and obstacles. The site could help teens through their lives and inspire them that life goes on, things get better, and writing can definitely help!

I really enjoyed exploring this website. All of the stories were really good and let you see what it's like to be an undocumented youth in America. It was interesting getting to see the situation from another point of view than just what is broadcasted on the news. I think this is a great way of giving this group of people a voice.

I really enjoyed looking though this website. It was easy to navigate and fun to look at. I noticed that the writer spends a lot of time talking about what the place looks like. She goes into vivid detail about the table arragements, the parking and the lighting on the patio. I think that this website gives people a chance to share their ideas and stories.

It was interesting to see how problems from many different categories were addressed, and how this group's solutions to them have made an impact by helping governments, emergency responders and citizens.

I think it's neat that they use technology to solve real problems for real people

I like how all the companies (ie Microsoft, HP, Google) are coming together for a better cause.

I like how they use this to help social development. They use this to help.

This is interesting. People who are involved in programs like these must feel really good about themselves. Everybody love everybody!

I like the idea of using a collaboration of people from all over the world to be able to work on solutions using technology to make the world a better place.

This is very similar to the Public Kitchen idea. It's cool how different events can be used to explore social situations. It's interesting that there are so many organizations who all have similar goals.

So awesome to know it's in over 30 different countries. Really cool how everyone could collectively work together to better something.

I think it's cool how they are taking something that usually has a derogatory meaning and making it good and helpful for others.

I like the idea that the companies are coming together and their solutions to problems are actually very helpful!

Start from identifying, defining and refining problem definitions provided by subject matter experts and local stakeholders. This shows that even though most people think that hacking is all bad, sometimes it can be used to upgrade security on websites that are supposed to be secure. Interesting job to sit there and try to hack someone's website and get paid for it without the worry that you might get caught and sent to jail for a federal crime. I think if I were to get into hacking this is something that i would plan to do for a job.

Kind of boring webpage, but I think it is a good thing that people are coming together to find new ways in technology and making it better.

I don't know what exactly this organization does to implement this technology, but I think it's pretty cool that can hack into technology.

Great way to get people all over the world to interact and solve problems together!

I don't know much about computers, (let alone hacking!) but this seems like a good way to identify problems and offer solutions under a bigger group name so that one might be able to have their idea taken seriously instead of simply overlooked. I guess it would be fun for people who enjoy this sort of thing too.

This is a pretty neat thing. I like how people are working together from different countries to help solve problems through technology.

I seems though that the very people who can solve problems are not just helpers, they are difference makers in people's lives. Being able to connect with others from different places just makes things more better.

They haven't yet gotten very big yet impact wise but, I like where they are going with this. I think that they have really good problem solving ideas and that they have something really good going for them.

I think it is cool that they have places for people to get involved and they work to inform people about different events that are going on in their area.

It was interesting to see how they were trying to use hacking in a positive way. Such as the giving back and voicing thoughts.

I thought it was really cool how the organization focuses on alternative or unusual ways to solve challenging problems.

I think it's pretty cool because they are trying new ways to grasp the problem instead of doing the "usual way"

An interesting way to approach different social problems.. I liked the "Public Kitchen" idea that's talked about on the front page.

I liked how they used the term "Public Kitchen" and involved the whole community.

The "Public Kitchen" is a good idea and is a good way to help social problems.

I like the the idea of unusual solutions that push everyone else to look at the problem differently.

I like the entire idea of a Public Kitchen. It's pretty cool how they've created a place where the community can come and evaluate different social problems.

Awesome idea and creatively done. Not just the same ol' same ol' forget what's even being said and go on with life. I like how it's a place where you can come together and evaluate the different social problems that really do exist whether people choose to believe that or not.

privatization is weird to think about but when you look into it people can become more displaced over the course of their life and even though they might try hard to talk to people there might be a dramatic event that has caused them to feel so poorly among other people. I like the fact that they are preparing meals for socially inactive people.

I really like that the Public Kitchen grasps everyone in the community and finds a unique way of broadcasting different problems. I never really thought that different types of infrastructure can improve the quality of our lives, but if you really think about it that is what surrounds us in our every day to day lives.

I love how they are choosing an alternative way to incorporate socialization and also at the same time being able to discuss important issues.

I really like the social interventions, great way to engage. All the events seem well organized and interesting.

I think all the alternative ways they address various social problems is awesome. It seems like it is much easier to tackle tough social issues in an alternative way than to confront them head on.

Thought it was a great way to bring together a group of people to help with their social interactions skills.

After looking through the website, this seems like a great way to engage the community, but other than that, doesn't seem at all necessary. Throughout history, when people encounter a social problem, they find a way to unite and overcome it. So until a major issue arises, these groups seem to be just another form of social gathering.

I think the public kitchen is such great idea. It gives people this public thinking space where they can talk about different social problems and come up with ideas to fix them.

I believe that mixing creativity and difference in CHANGE will always have an outcome of a very successful project. Different people with different minds who works together are so notorious.

I like the creativity displayed through what they are doing I think the public kitchen was a very large success.

I like there innovative thinking and not following the mundane approach to solving problems.
