FEEDBACK
FEEDBACK
Project feedback has been utterly positive. People on the streets approach the poster printed with posed questions with a quizzical demeanour, and those who are shy to respond usually walk away deep in thought. Visiting students from around the world have expressed great interest in the findings of the project, as well as given input on how to improve the project and possible questions to pose. Overall, people are finding the project to be promising and innovative.

NEW HORIZONS
There are endless possible segments that could be added to Cyprus Stories in Cyberland. There could be sections including photojournalism (though it is encouraged to consider the benefits of the “non-visual”  medium of radio, and chose visual material to be included carefully), sections devoted to social scientific research that request visitors to scale their opinions based on their relative importance (0 – 10), relate the project to teaching human rights through media literacy, develop an approach more inspired by oral history, etc.
There is also the potential to proceed by making more agreements with local stations to broadcast sections of these recorded interviews. More easily, we can give segments to Hasan Kahvecioglu and Kyriacos Pierides to broadcast during breaks of Talk of the Island programs.
