I'm changing India to South Asia as I and a couple of other students are from South Asian region but we are not Indians. :)

I am not indian either, but I assume there will at least be a handful of students of Indian decent in this class who may like to stick with India. It is always better to have the permission of Becky or Prof before changing it as the assigned geographical areas are the focus of the bigger research project that prof himself is conducting .

Indeed dividing up the world by "regions" is always a tricky exercise. UNESCO classifies the world as such: Africa, Arab States, Asia and the Pacific, Europe and North America and Latin America and the Caribbean. Becky and I are happy to revise the regions above. Our larger project is at an early stage of development and this is the question we are grappling with. So we are in fact "crowd sourcing" this class for ideas. So Rabia's point is well taken.

We are open to proposal.

Just a slight change - I have divided China into North and South, as we feel there may be quite a lot of interest in that area. Rabia, thanks for taking the initiative to change India to South Asia - definitely a good idea.

Hi,

I would like to be in North America please.

Thanks,
Anna

Hmm, we've got China and Southeast Asia, but no Northeast Asia? Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong are all left out!

I have South American background, but I would love to take this opportunity to do more research on South East Asia. Is it okay if I sign up in this group? The group working on South America can always reach me if they would like some insight! I'd be glad to help.

Is it possible to sign up for a country now, but possibly change later? I would just like to do some short research on the geographical areas before committing to one, but I don't want to loose a spot in my second choice considering that my first choice was already taken...

Hey All, I created a folder for any groups that are creating a Wiki Page for their respective region. If/when you create a page, you can save it to the Folder Titled "Group Project Wiki Page". Once you save it, to access your page, all you have to do is clink on the "Pages and Files" Link at the top left of the wiki, and the folder will be listed on the left hand side of the the page. Thought it would make it a little easier to find your page inside the wiki! Cheers!

Jason, Raissa and Eric, if you guys want to meet up at UTSC, I am free on Thursday from 1-4pm. How about AA 207 between 1:30 and 4pm on Thursdays starting tomorrow or between 1pm and 3pm on Oct 11th? Thanks

Can anybody tell me how to sign up for the project, thanks.

on the top left corner of this window, click on "Edit" , from there, you'll be at the page where you can edit your info. In the given space, from whichever topic that interest you (and if there is still space), put your name down. Remember to then click on "Save"

Hi prof, i am interested to do AFRICA along with another student. please allow us to do that

Xu Han, the Africa group is already full. Remember, sign-up is on a first come/ first served basis. Please refer to Danielle's comment, above, for instructions on how to sign up for a different group that currently has less than 4 other students signed up.

Anyone in the South America Group (#11) willing to change place with Denisse Albornoz in the South Asia group (#6) ?

How do I create a Google+ hangout for my group, even if I do not have a webcam?
Raissa and Jason, could you please email me your cell numbers at matthew.wang@mail.utoronto.ca so that we can set up a meet-up time and location? Eric already sent his cell number.
Thanks :)

This is for group 10, has anyone set up an account so we can communicate about the project? Sorry I'm not familiar with Google+.

Thanks,
Anna

This message is for everyone in Group 1 (Africa). I wanted to set up a time where we can all either meet up (in person) or group chat via google+. I would prefer to meet in person if this works for everyone. Send me an e.mail at hatimjivanjee@gmail.com and we can all coordinate. Thanks guys!

Hi Everyone,
We have set up a second group for Africa, if anyone is interested in joining the group please sign up.
Thanks

Hi Wairimu! I'm going to join your group because I was originally in South America and I'm having a lot of problems with finding a case study.

Hi Becky,

could you please add Eric Yu's Work Space to this page?

Thank you!

Luchen , it is a great idea; I think you have made Prof. Chan's and Becky's lives a lot easier!

ohh, I see.
