Module 10: Video Review

  1 .I chose the Buddhism video because I was interested to know more about the culture and why it is so popular. I chose the second video because I was interested to know more about African Art.

2. I learned that the carvings in the stone are actually Buddha’s teachings. I learned that African Art went along with the times, in the sense that when it was a hunting and gathering society you see the cave paintings depicting that, then when it turned into an agricultural society you see that as well in the art, also when there tools became more advanced and their culture richer, so did there art. There art was used to record information as well

   3.   I feel the first video relates to the readings because it really shows how and why Buddha was such an iconic figure. It goes more in-depth with the culture and what the values are and how they are displayed through art. I feel the African art video related to the text in showing how there art started, and how it went along with their culture.

4. In my opinion I feel that the movies were really good it makes it more interesting to read and then watch a movie and find out more information, and more about the two topics. I also like that I was able to know more about who Buddha really was as a person. I thought the second  video gave me a better understand of techniques and how you could distinctly tell what kind of animals they saw in Africa, and how they lived there daily life.
