I created this account for class teaching purposes and for security in public places, and because I forgot the password for User:Hanyangprofessor, sigh. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:22, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Helpful thought: did you try the Wikipedia:Adventure yet?

Globalization

edit

Activity 1: Based on our Reading 1 Roland Robertson and Kathleen E. White, “What Is Globalization?”, answer the following questions:  What is globalization, according to the authors?  How difficult was the reading? Did you enjoy it or did you find it boring?


Assignment 2: First, think where you expect to find countries like Korea, China, USA, and what countries are similar when it comes to concepts of tradition vs rational/secular values, and survival vs self-expression.

Next, look at the World Value Survey Map (you can find it on my slides or by googling for ‘world value survey map’; maps from different years have small differences).

Then answer: what is surprising? Are countries like Korea, China, USA, etc. in places you expected them to be?



Extra point Wikipedia activity related to cultural globalization: think about your favorite aspects of your culture (ex. food, animation, music, fashion, etc.). Find an English Wikipedia article related to them and add a REFERENCED fact to improve them. For example, you can mention and summarize a Korean or Chinese movie, game or book review in a relevant Wikipedia article.


We will form 5 groups of up to 10 students each. Each group will choose one of the five principal bodies of the UN to present on (1: General Assembly, 2: Security Council, 3: Economic and Social Council, 4: UN Secretariat and 5: International Court of Justice). Presentations will happen this Friday. Presenting can net you up to 10 points if you are speaking (3 points if you are not speaking but helped prepare the presentation and are in class). The presentation should last about 10-15 minutes and explain issues such as “What is that body doing? How are its members chosen? Is that body important? Is it criticized? Are there plans to reform it?”

Please let me know when you have chosen your topic and who is in your group. First come, first served


Review what WTO is doing for Korea, China or other countries you are interested in using the data from tinyurl.com/wtoclass

How important is WTO membership for those countries and how important is WTO for modern globalization?

Have free trade agreements between Korea and USA, and between China and Korea, been controversial? Why? Who supported them and who opposed them? Who won and who lost? Are those FTAs good for us?


What does collective intelligence (Wikipedia) think about your favorite sources?

Search for sources you mentioned or use at tinyurl.com/wprsps or its associated noticeboard tinyurl.com/wprsn (use the “search the noticeboard archives” tool). Tell me what you find. If the source you want to learn about is not mentioned, for extra credit you can start a discussion at the RSN noticeboard.

Bonus activity: ask AI (Bing Copilot AI, or ChatGPT) is the websites you use are reliable. What will the AI tell you about your sources?


Avoiding fake news: do you know or use any fact checking websites? Look at the websites listed at tinyurl.com/factcheckbe as well as tinyurl.com/factcheckw What fake news have they identified recently? What fact checking websites focus on Asia (in particular, Korea and China)? Wikipedia article listed above does not list any outside one related to Hong Kong. For extra credit, suggest some on its discussion (talk) page.

What are current big news and how are they affected by fake news? Who is trying to lie to us about current news and how?


Is globalization increasing? How globalized are Korea, China or other countries? And in what dimensions?

Study the data at tinyurl.com/globalkof and let me know what you think.


Activity: 1) Go to https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Category:Lists_of_popular_pages_by_WikiProject and select three countries to compare. For example, you can choose China (https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_China/Popular_pages), Germany (https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Germany/Popular_pages) and Egypt (https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Egypt/Popular_pages) 2) Look at the number of page views for their most popular pages. Which is more popular among the readers of English Wikipedia? Which country seems to be influencing globalization the most right now? 3) Chose a listing related to a country you know (ex. Korea, China, etc.). What do international, English readers want to learn about them? Are you surprised? What would you expect to find but is not there, or is not ranked up highly?


Important note 1: The lists you see are about what is popular among English readers. They are based on viewership data from English Wikipedia. They DO NOT tell us what is popular among people who read other language Wikipedias. For example, https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Korea/Popular_pages tells us what is popular among English readers when they want to read about Korean topic. It DOES NOT tell us what is popular among Korean readers. Important note 2: This list is based on RECENT popularity (September 2024). It does not tell is about long term popularity. Important note 3: There are some topics which are popular among many countries and are not “good data” (ex. World War II).

Invent a short story which features examples of Goffman’s informant and shill.

You can use AI and talk to friends, but if your example is too similar to another one I heard, you will get no points.

Design a map of a public space (park) using Whyte’s theory we have learned, You can work in a group (up to 3 people). You can do it on paper or digitally (Paint, https://inkarnate.com/ , anything).

If you complete the assignment in class and can show it to us on the big screen, you can get extra points. Otherwise, upload it to our blog (you can also present at the beginning of the next class).

Bonus question: can we get an AI to generate a map for us?

Bonus point: you can upload your map to Wikimedia Commons

This time we will try to design a good street. You have 50 minutes to do so – make a small map (you can use paper or digital tools like incarnate, AI, etc.), and use Whyte’s theory (see my Prezi) to explain why the street is good.

Bonus point: you can upload your map to Wikimedia Commons

Compare gender equality in three countries: South Korea, China and another country of your choice, using 2023 Global Gender Gap Report: tinyurl.com/HANGGGR2023 Then click “economy profiles” and select a country from the map to learn more about it (click “go to economy profile” again for more data). Answer the following question: is the situation of women in those countries good? Can it be better? What can be done to achieve gender equality?

Follow up question: why fewer women in Korea go to university compared to men? (0.8333 = 4:5)?
