Objective:  Evaluate the impact of the events at Tiananmen Square in 1989 on the present state of China.

Task:  As you come into class, please pick up your computer, log on, and come to the "AW80" blog.  I'll spend the first few minutes of class demonstrating how to upload your outsource clip to the FCP Ning and hyperlinking on the FCP13-1 wiki.   Then, you'll participate in a live blog (below) as we watch the final segment of Tank Man.  After the video, please post a reflection to our class blog.  Finally, we'll use the remainder of class to begin our review of the Japan timeline.
