At this current moment, I have narrowed down my trivia game to include ten questions about different examples of propaganda during World War II. I have also laid out the framework of my website with three main sections: the trivia game, an overview of propaganda and its use during the war, and different examples with descriptions and analysis. My main goal is for users to be able to learn about the ways that the United States government used propaganda to influence support for the war. Within propaganda, there are five different distinct but complementary appeals: Guilt, Satanism, the Illusion of Victory, Apocalyptic, and Territorial. The focus of the project will cover these five appeals briefly and give examples that contain those appeals equally. For instance, I would have an example that shows both Guilt and the Illusion of Victory, but I will also have examples that cover the other appeals. I have two audiences for the project. The primary audience would be museum visitors who use the site after visiting the accompanying exhibit. My secondary audience would be teachers and students who find the site from the educational resources on the museum site. While most users would be museum visitors who see the advertisement at the end of the exhibit or on a brochure, the game and site would be helpful for teachers to teach the topic and historical thinking skills.

My next step is to add the information to the site and put the game together. Most, if not all, of the research and sources have been collected, so the only step I would have is to put that information on the website. I also need to develop questions at the end of each section so that users can use their historical thinking skills with the information they have just learned. There is one challenge that I have hit this past week, and that is time management. I had some health issues along with work that left just some time to work on the project. However, that is something I will work on this week. I plan on working on the website and game daily this coming week. If I do that, I will not find myself stressed and rushed.
