Blog #1B: How do you expect semester two to be different? the same? What will you do to improve on yourself to prove that you deserve a passing grade? (150 words)

I want it to be different and have better results than last semester since i got a B for a grade last semester this semester i want to get an A.. I want to be more concentrated in the class and try a little harder. In my projects I could have done more to make them look nice but I am very conformist and I want to put that aside for this semester and give it my best. I want this second semester to be like giving it a second chance and to learn from the mistakes made in first semester and be better do better. I know i can give more i am just lazy and laziness is no good while trying to succeed in life. I want second semester to be different nothing like the first one it’s time to focus now. Life is too short to commit so many mistakes and not take advantage of the education I am getting now so time to push everything aside and focus on what is greatly important and will mark my life and makes a difference for good or bad.

Post # 8: 1. What do you think are the main reasons why this study had these results? 2. Have you fallen victim to "The Google Effect?" Give an example. 3. Provide a cure/solution or explain why there may be no way out of this situation.

Well in my opinion I think these results are correct because we do depend on the internet to help our daily life so we all need the internet to help us remember something or even to learn something new yet we wont learn it just because now we know where to find it. i would think that I have fallen as a victim to this so called "Google Effect" because when i need help on my homework I know that I will find the answers on the internet so I don't learn it cause i depend on the internet because i know I am going to find them on the internet. Unfortunately "The Google Effect" has no solution Because it is like a cancer cell once it grows it spreads and there is no cure to it. The reason why I say this is because everybody depends on the internet for our everyday life to say Happy Birthday, to see the whether for everything its part of our life now..  As the time goes by this will only get worse because that is the way human nature works once we learn something and depend on it the problem will only get bigger.

Blog # 7: How do you think Technology will affect your life differently this year than in the previous years of your life? Consider what changes you are expecting to the way of life you have, new products you may be purchasing, and what you have learned thus far in school and personally. (Minimum of 200 words)

Technology will have an impact on my life because i am learning more and more everyday on this topic as the time goes by these new things I am learning will only help me to accomplish more goals in my life. plus from now on technology is going to keep impacting my life until the last minute of my life because i use it for everything now technology even influences my education. Personally this new in school I have not only learned new things academically but in life I have had new experiences that will stay with me forever. Events in my life that have taught me new lessons. I hope this new year is even better than the last. Its not only about the items you purchase but whether or not you know how to use them if not how are you going to buy something you cant use. So now a days technology is not always bringing negative things too kids like our parents claim they bring us knowledge that will help some of us in the future depending on what you decide to do with your life. At this point it doesnt matter what new year we are going into it will keep pushing us forward more than ever.
