Topic 1 Final – Borders\/Canals:<\/strong><\/p>\n

For my research topic of Borders\/Canals, I decided to highlight the colonization of the natural element of water for man-made service. Through my systems mapping exercise, I wanted to explore the ideas of separation and connection and how humans manipulate water flow to answer those needs with the development of canals.<\/p>\n

To highlight the different functions or jobs canals perform, I decided to display the information in my guide as a Careers page for a fictional company called Waterways, personifying water as an employee to the different canals. I created a corresponding logo and used the metaphor for the company tagline; \u201cGo With the Flow.\u201d In the video below, I briefly discuss my research, use of metaphor, and introduction to form before walking through my guide, which can be found at www.waterwaycareers.info<\/a> and in the second Project Materials link below. Sources and References are linked on each page of the guide. I allowed a buffer of 2 minutes for live questions and further discussion during my presentation timeslot.<\/p>\n
