Dear Cell Phone,
     I love you very much. I use you everyday. If you were not invented I don't know how my life would be without you. I use you to call mommy, and i use you to surf the web. We' ve been threw so much. I lost you, I found you now you're back.  You haven't broke into pieces, right now your indestructible and I thank you for that.
     I had a cellular device since my 5th grade year in elementary school and ever since I have gotten several more. I hope you don't break or your screen cracks, because if you do T-mobile will put me threw hell trying to get a new one of you. So do your best to stand up to my clumsiness.
     I thank the creators of the cellular device. Because my phone is my lap top, and my iPod combined with a house phone all in one. There really isn't much else to say or write so I'll conclude it here. Thank you Cell Phone for being what you are.   
     

Write three paragraphs supporting your opinion.

Do uniforms make school better

Uniforms do make school better because everyone almost looks the same. You don't have to worry about students getting picked on because of their attire. You don't have to worry about the male teachers being portrayed as pervs or weirdos for telling the females to pull up their shirts up.



Uniforms create such a better learning society. Students are able to learn productively. They are worrying about work instead of someones baggy t-shirt or baggy ripped pants.

So as you can see uniforms make everything better. Less drama, less stress, and more learning. Uniform to me now provides all the students with a equal learning opportunity. Although uniform is better we the students should be able to be original with any color blazers, sweaters, coats or jackets. Although I agree that uniform is a good idea I still believe that  we should be some what orginal. 

What is your overall opinion of this article? How do you feel about being a guinea pig for this initiative? What responsibilities does the senior class have to success of mobile devices in education? Is this a good thing?

I am a sophomore here at Campus and I am not a Guinea Pig to the tablets replacing text books because the class of 2014 still uses text books.  The responsibilities the senior class have, are not losing and damaging tablets. It is a good thing depending on how the seniors use it to the best of their ability.

Do you think it is a harmless prank to mess with another persons account? What would you do if you find a computer was left on and accounts were not logged out? What would you want someone to do if you left your computer on and accounts open?

Do you think it is a harmless prank to mess with another persons account? What would you do if you find a computer was left on and accounts were not logged out?  What would you want someone to do if you left your computer on and accounts open?

 It is not a harmless prank. You should not mess with anything that is not yours. If someone left there account open I would close it out. I would want someone to log out my account and close it. SIMPLE AS THAT!! It is not right that someone should have to worry about their stuff being tampered with they should be able to live freely without  worrying about anything.

Tell us what you think about Steve Jobs’s legacy and what your own guiding principles are. What are your core beliefs? What would you say is your personal credo? How does that credo guide you in life?

Tell us what you think about Steve Jobs’s legacy and what your own guiding principles are. What are your core beliefs? What would you say is your personal credo? How does that credo guide you in life?

 I think that Steve Jobs legacy was a great legacy. He created and replenished plenty of wonderful things; the computer, the iPod, and the iPhone. He toke something that any regular person would have never thought of and evolved it greatly. He enhanced technology and made it so much better. Jobs has pushed everyone to want more, and now that he is deceased everybody's dream has been crushed.

: What do you think are the advantages off cloud computing? What do you like about the iCloud? What problems if any do you see with the iCloud?

 What do you think are the advantages off cloud computing?  What do you like about the iCloud?  What problems if any do you see with the iCloud?

 Even after watching the video I really don't understand what the icloud is. After Steve Jobs passes away everyone wants to talk about the apple computer, But before nobody really cares about him  or the computer, Which I really think is kind of messed up.

What Role Does Television Play in Your Life and the Life of Your Family?

What Role Does Television Play in Your Life and the Life of Your Family?

 The role television plays is a big role. kids, adults, and even old people love watching t.v. Television plays not such a big role in my life because I can really careless about I love my phone and prefer that over anything else. The role television plays in my family is big, because that is what brings them together. Everyone in my family works and goes to school everyday so at the end of the day they want to relax and be together so they watch t.v.

Should anonymity (not using real name) be protected in electronic interactions and communications? Would this be a good thing for community, responsibility, free expression, political participation, and personal fulfillment? If so, when and why?

Should anonymity (not using real name) be protected in electronic interactions and communications? Would this be a good thing for community, responsibility, free expression, political participation, and personal fulfillment? If so, when and why?

 No, anonymity should not be protected. I would like to know who everyone is and are they pervs,  crazy people and possible killers. This would be a excellent thing for the community, responsibility, free expression, political participation and personal fulfillment  that way you know who the hackers and spam people are. This change should be put in effect now, like RIGHT NOW.

How did Steve Jobs (Founder of Apple) effect the way we learn, communicate and live today? How did this effect the world? How did this effect your life?

How did Steve Jobs (Founder of Apple) effect the way we learn, communicate and live today?  How did this effect the world?  How did this effect your life?  

 Steve Jobs effected the way we learn, communicate, and live today by creating a new world of technology; The ipod, The iphone, and The ipad all with different generations. To me personally these were all great ideas and inventions. Now that Steve Jobs is no longer here on earth with us his legacy lives on and on for years even if the technology isn't updated as he would have created it to be when he was alive and well it would just be as perfect as his other inventions. I think people all around the world even the ones he didn't know will truly miss him. Personally I didn't know who Steve Jobs was until last night it really didn't affect me but I will truly miss his technology inventions.

How does flaming show a lack of respect? Do you respect people who flame others? Why?

How does flaming show a lack of respect?  Do you respect people who flame others?  Why?

 Flaming shows a lack of respect by bashing or insulting other internet user. Do I respect people who flame? Why should I respect people who flame if they can't flame in person then flaming on the internet is pointless, very pointless and it shouldn't be done.

Do you think that the passing the HSPA should be a requirement for graduation? Do standardized test measure what you really know? Why?

Do you think that the passing the HSPA should be a requirement for graduation? Do standardized test measure what you really know?  Why?

 Yes I do think passing the HSPA should be a graduation requirement. I think it should be a requirement because this HSPA shows what students really learned from elementary school all the way to their junior year in high school. This test really shows what you really know and have you really been paying attention throughout your years in school.

Monday, October 3, 2011

Do you think the HSPA test should be given on a computer or over the Internet? Would most students do better or worse? Would the results be the same? Would you prefer to take the test the traditional way or on a computer? Why?

Do you think the HSPA test should be given on a computer or over the Internet?  Would most students do better or worse?  Would the results be the same?  Would you prefer to take the test the traditional way or on a computer?  Why?

 No, I do not think the HSPA test should be given on a computer or over the internet. I think the HSPA should not be given on the computer or over the internet because for 1. Everyone in school does not fully understand how to use the internet or computer and 2. Using the computer might and can open up a window of cheating. Most students will most likely past the test if they know how to use the computer to access cheating. The result would be the same as passing, more students will pass because most likely they can and will cheat. Personally I would like to take the HSPA the traditional way because it will give me the same chance as the years before who had to take the test manually.

Are you giving your best effort in this class?  Do you always work to the best of your ability?  What are you going to do to improve you effort in school and especially this class?

 Am I giving my best effort in this class? I just came to this class, there really isn't much for me to do all I do is answer questions of the day. I feel as though the time is not being taken out to show me things I don't understand. I don't want a failing grade in this class, I am doing very well in my other classes and I don't want this class being the only class I fail. In any other class I work to the best of my ability in this class it is physically impossible when I don't know what to do. Its nothing that I can possibly do, it's what the teacher can do to help me, I really am starting to enjoy this class and the people in it. So while enjoying the class I would like to pass the class also:)).. I would like to give my best effort in this class and work to the best of my ability.

Why are Digital Citizenship and netiquette key to Online Safety 3.0?

Digital Citizenship and Netiquette are key to Online Safety 3.0 because everyone wants to be safe on the internet. Netiquette is network etiquette which means a set of rules that people should abide by, and Digital Citizenship is a concept which helps teachers, technology leaders and parents understand what children/students/technology users should know how to use technology appropriately. If you do not use the internet properly it can and might have consequences. That's why using Netiquette and Digital Citizenship is key to online safety.

You walk in to the computer classroom. You sit down at your computer. You notice that the computer was left on. Someones online accounts, photographs and classwork is open. What is the right thing to do? What would you do? Why? Should you go into the other persons accounts?

You walk in to the computer classroom.  You sit down at your computer.  You notice that the computer was left on.  Someones online accounts, photographs and classwork is open.  What is the right thing to do?  What would you do?  Why?  Should you go into the other persons accounts?

The right thing to do is to log off. I would do the right thing and log off of the persons account, because if that was my profile I wouldn't  want anyone looking at my pictures or reading my classwork. Why would I do it? I would do it because it is the right thing to do and I could really careless about that persons personal files. No you should not go into the other persons account because the way I see it if you don't want it being done to you, you shouldn't do it. SIMPLE AS THAT!!

A "boy/girl" friends you through Facebook. He/she is exactly your age, likes the same things as you, likes the same music you do. After a few weeks of chatting, he/she asks you to meet him/her. What do you do?

After a few weeks of chatting what do I do? Technology now has webcams, I would get on my lap top ask to get on Oovoo or Skype and video chat them. If they don't not have a access to a video chat I would then go on and proceed to see who our common friends are if we don't have any I wouldn't agree to meet them. SIMPLE AS THAT!!!!!
