6. How did your activities and research for this CyberFair Project support standards, required coursework and curriculum standards?

Well, the project were planned very big in the beginning, Since we had many people in the project, we still couldn't collect all the information we need. We focused at some special locations that made the project specialized a lot.

1) What information tools & technologies did you used to complete your CyberFair project?

We collect our contents and graphics by visiting the community we focused. and after arranging our contents and graphics, we made our contents into webpages by computer.

2) In what ways did you act as "ambassadors" and spokespersons for your CyberFair project both on-line and in person.

Well, most of the ambassador contacted by us is the specialities shop vendors. They introduced us about the specialities they sell, like the history and why it is special. and some of the ambassador are the local people who live near our ruins and scenery areas. We also connected some rumors and informal informations from them.

3) What has been the impact of your project on your community?

This projected talked a lot at the fascinating but not famous spots. I think this project can help those spots more popular and make the people know those spots more.

Some of the ambassador were very kind that they gave us a lot of information we need. they also sent us many good graphics and more text informations.
