What is Ju Jitsu?
Definiton = gentle art
(Ju Jitsu is spelt several different ways e.g. Jui Jutsu, click this link for more examples)
Ju Jitsu is a martial art that originated from ancient Japan, during the peroid of the samurai. The Jitsu techniques at the time were used by samurai warriors, if they were attacked and unarmed. Ju Jitsu declined in the mid-19th century, but many of its concepts and methods were incorporated into Judo, Karate, and Aikido.
The fundamentals of the art comprises a system of throws, joint locks and strikes, using an attackers weight/momentum to their own disadvantage. Based upon this principal you don't need to be the strongest, fittest, person to use Jitsu. Therefore Ju Jitsu skills can be successfully used by men, women and children to defend ones self from physical assault.
To illustrate my point watch this video. The female in this clip is a secondary 2nd dan in Jitsu, and is approx 5"2ft.

Presentation for research question.
At this point i still did not fully understand what I was meant to be doing thus my presentation being poorly presented. I was not happy, neither was the rest of the class, alot of us was in a badmood! The feedback I received from my tutors was like a kick in the groin. I quote " There is no relevance to what you have presented in regards to web 2.0". I totally agreed, because I actually didn't have a clue! The feedback was helpful and got me onto the right track. All the feedback my class recieved was mostly "you are going in the wrong direction". hmmm why is all the class getting this blog stuff wrong? At least it's not just me whos confused!
Below are the slides from my presentation
