1. Description of Our Community
Wuku village locates in the west north of Taipei country; the west north of village in the Kuanyin Mountain special zone; the east north has River Tanshu in between Tanshu village and Peito. In south, there is freeway through Wuku industrial area, so the traffic is good. Because the industrial pollution is getting worse, the quality of living is bad. Wuku village needs more art activities. Wuku pays for its prosperity.

Every office and classroom also has its own computer, so most of webpages were finished in these three places. At home, the ADSL and 56K Modern were used to collect the information and record the schedule.
4. Problems We Had To Overcome
(1) Timetable: We are students in grade six , most of students cannot stay at school after study time. We used the break time in between lesson, lunch break and the time after study time to 17:30, sometimes on Saturday and Sunday. Students who cannot come to school will do their work at home. (2) The problem of tape-record: This is our first time to do the interview and we took two tape-records. Although the teacher already reminded us that we need to listen and record at the same time, we still could not do it well. It is because we were so nervous. The speed of writing could not catch what the person interviewed said. So everyone took the turn to listen and write in order to finish the interview. It is getting better in second time. The speed of writing is getting fast and the record is better, so we finish the work quick.
5. Our Project Sound Bite
When we started the project, all of us were worry about that can not finish the work of the webpage because we have no any experience. But the teacher said that the important thing is whether you are willing to learn. So during the process of making the webpage, the team members were not afraid of working hard. And everyone has different abilities, in the group work everyone can do his best too.
Especially, this study was new experience. Each interview and exploration made us learned how to found out the problem and solved it. We worked so hard and helped each other. It was the best memory in our last year of the elementary school. And the most important thing we have learned was that it is not really easy to.
Hope this project can bring everyone joins and comes to maintain the historical site together.
