Today in GAETI was very interesting. We learned about the earth and all the hemisphere. I never really thought much about them. Also, the activity with the globe was very good and it kept me awake in class. The presenter did a good job of presenting what we needed to know.

In my group we discuss ethics and how to use all the standards that were presented today. My group member gave a website where students can create comic strips free.
