WELCOME!!
START HERE!! Hello Gloggers!! Let’s look at what we are going to do today… **This is now your homework and is due on Monday, 26th October** Last week we discussed what we thought about beauty. A few people expressed their views on how it is not necessarily outer beauty that makes us beautiful but inner beauty, personality and how you treat other people is what makes us beautiful. Today we are going to look at the DOVE Beauty Campaign and how it explains beauty as well as looking at what people do to make themselves beautiful, for example piercing, tattooing, make-up and scarification. First, watch the video on the Dove website, a link can be found on this page. Next, choose one of the following cultural beautfication methods to explain on your Glog. PIERCING - TATTOO - MAKE-UP (look for Geisha) - SCARIFICATION. Write about its beginnings, why people/ cultures do it and any other interesting points you find about it. Create your first GLOG using the answers to the three DOVE questions and what you found out about one of the cultural beautification methods. Remember: we are not only looking at our own culture but practices in other cultures as well!

QUESTIONS FOR DOVE VIDEO 1. What does the video show about the beauty industry and the portrayal of beauty in the media? 2. If beauty can be created by using make up, effective lighting, and great photography, how do you feel about what you see of the beauty on TV, in magazines and on the internet? 3. In the past, there was not as much technology to enhance the looks of a person on TV or in magazines. Today there are many different technologies that can change the way someone looks. Using parts of the DOVE film as reference, how do you think the technology of the future will affect what we see?
HOW TO CREATE YOUR BLOG Your homepage on Glogster is called 'DASHBOARD' and you need to go to it to create a new Glog. Next to your name you should find a big pink/red bottun that says 'Create a new Glog'. Click this. It will send you to a new Glod. It will have some stuff on it already but you can delete this by clicking on each one and the pressing delete on your keyboard. On the side of your Glag you will find a little square with Graphics, Text, Wall, Video, etc written on it. This is where all of your tools are to create your Glog. They are very easy to use. Just look through and figure out how they work. You can have a different colour scheme or theme for each Glog. Have fun! Message me if you are having any problems with the program or come and see me in A04. I am always happy to help!
