This week I received my Omeka feedback. I needed a lot more cleaning up on my posts than I thought I would. While doing an Omeka post a struggle for me was thinking of a subject heading that was short and simple but also descriptive enough for what the post was about. I was told that mine were too long on Omeka and was given tips on how to make them shorter but good description for what it was. Another thing that needed fixing on mine was making my titles descriptive in a way that describes what my item is for example one of my items was a football shaped program or promotional hand out, but I just described it as an item. This week we also began to get into groups and find Omeka items to map. My group and I struggled at first finding the information and how to get it but eventually figured it out. The one that me and my group began mapping was a wedding announcement that was in an article that took place at advent church. We began doing our research too fond the exact place and address where this took place and where these people are from. This item was actually an Omeka item that was posted by me, so I suggested that we map this one. Overall, this week we mainly focused on mapping, I find it super interesting because I have never done anything like this in any other class before and I feel like I am learning so much.
