Weekly Blog 6: Article Review

Today, I looked at another article on MSN about a unique building in Denmark (the link to the article is here).

Airbnb is offering a family of four a chance to spend the night at the LEGO House in Billund, Denmark. The winners will head to the house on November 24-25 for an overnight stay in the 12,000-square-meter building. I like how the writer organized the information, and I especially liked their understanding of relatable information to the article itself (for example, Endicott mentions that Billund is not only the location of the LEGO House, but it is also the headquarters of Lego itself). I personally know quite a bit about Lego, so to read an article in which the writer has obviously done their own research to learn more about Lego in general is enjoyable.

I do wish the writer had gone into more detail about what is inside the house itself—they just mention that it is all plastic. I also want to know more about the background of the house itself. Why was it built? How long did it take? How much did it cost to create?

In terms of being a leader in class, I've been production manager and part of the production team during Raven Minute episodes and ONW Now. We've also start to teach other students in the class how to run production so hopefully we can eventually have a rotation to give ourselves breaks between productions.
