https://padlet.com/aquinor1/93d0wzoddrc1wygt In this padlet, I will discuss the television show, “Mahalo, Max,” a new upcoming series on Nickelodeon. This series will follow Max, a young 10 year old boy who just moved from the mainland, to the island of Oahu, Hawaii. While missing the mainland and trying to adjust to living somewhere new, Max spends more time with his grandparents who are Hawaiian locals. Throughout this series, Max discovers and learns new things about the island of Hawaii, such as the culture, history and native language. This essay will address the inner workings of the show, such as the show’s curriculum, purpose and transmedia opportunities. en-us 2021-05-21 07:14:23 UTC 2023-05-25 22:30:18 UTC hello@padlet.com aquinor1 https://padlet.com/aquinor1/93d0wzoddrc1wygt/wish/1546925019 Mahalo, Max is an upcoming show on Nickelodeon about a young boy named Max who recently moved to Oahu, Hawaii.
