  6. I could see that columbus went to a hard trip and a long trip to find out that the the is round not flat. I could see that he thought really hard to say that the world was round. HyunMin

  15. I think in video Columbus wasn't knowing where he landed and he thought it was india. I learned that Columbus named the island El salvador. Also I learned that he went with alot of people. And the last what I what I learned was he went with three ships. The crews that were with Columbus were mean to him because they said that"lets tie him in chain" I think that Columbus was kind of scared beacause if he wasn't scared at all he would go by hiself. hyunmin

  16. I think this video is helpful to our main idea because Columbus sees the world round. But most of other people see the world flat that was an important change to peoples thinking at that time.
    Is it accurate? Well no one will ever Know. Because no one from that time is still alive. So Historians will have to guess and make an estimation about what was happening back then. But we can use the clues that they left behind to make a better prediction.But as human race grows more and more intelligent we can dig deeper to find more and more clues. But no one who is alive in this time will ever know for sure.
    Is it fair that he had three ships that were small. well it was the best Columbus could do at that time. But if he had more men and more ships that were bigger he could explore further.
    It's is Christopher Columbus's own perspective. Anil

  18. Is it accurate? Some people still won't be sure that the world is round.Well ask to Christopher columbus because he knows the correct answer. That's why you should watch this video of his journey and his answer. By Hyun Min

  19. I think Columbus matters about our main idea beause everyone said the world is flat because they maybe just looked at the ground and said "oh the world is round" I think that Columbus went to a explore. Then he looked at it properly. Then he knew what shape was the world like. And our main idea is that EXPLORATION CHANGES THE WAY WE SEE OUR WORLD. BY HYUNMIN BAE
