using blogging in the college class

I like using blogging in a college class, because its the interaction of students and the professor. Student interact with each other through the computer with comments, peer advice and blog re-posts. It minimizes communication down in the class room. If a student really reads his or her classmates blog post, then they would have insight to who that person is inside and outside the classroom.

using Google Drive in the college class

Using Google drive in a college class is cool because it saves ever two seconds but there are a lot of dramatic issues that Google drive does not correct. Microsoft is a better software to use however Google has a lot of special abilities that Microsoft can not do.

using a wiki in the class

Using wiki on assignments when gathering information is wrong, because wiki doesn't always have reliable information. Professors instruct their students that wiki is not a reliable source so do not use it. Using the wiki in class I didn't feel comfortable using it because of the information over the internet could have been false; however, we were taught how to use wiki the right way and add information to topics that was not clear or didn't had enough information. I liked when I used wiki I was adding information to my sandbox where the information was accurate. I had a reading list to also back up that information.

1 post about 2 of your colleagues' posts about the above issues

Daniel said how he revised is doc 3, "Usually, I revise my documents by reading the comments other students post on it. They tell me where I have made mistakes and where I need to make changes."

Tj, said how he feels about peer review, "  Having someone other than the teacher review and critique your work in a lot less stressful. This also gives you maybe an extra opportunity for someone to help you correct any mistakes before you have to turn it in for a final grade. When helping someone critique their paper, is important to not bash, or make fun of their work, because it makes you look bad, and in crashes the other person's morale. Helping others in another way for you to gain experience in not only helping them, but helping yourself, too. You could be revising a paper, and learn something new about that person, or their type of writing style. The possibilities are endless!'

1 post about writing your Doc3, especially about what helped or hindered you to stay on task

What helped me to stay on task of my doc 3 is my love of fashion and being able to put my ideas and thoughts about a topic i love into my doc. The only problem that may have hindered me from staying on task of my essay is just not wanting to do it at this very moment but other than that I feel as if this essay comes easier to me then my last one.

1 post about the peer review process. Talk about giving and receiving peer advice

I love peer review. It helps me to perform my essay and writing assignments better. It may be some things on my essay that I might not see that my peers will. Its great and its not just one peer its about 4 different peers reviewing my paper. If my peers do there job it would be perfect. I also like to give advice because, sometimes when you write a paper so many thoughts are going through your mind you might miss grammar errors and punctuation's. This gives peers such as me and others to look for those errors before grading and then we get points for peer review too which is great.

Revising Documents

   When revising your writing, read over the entire paper. You can circle any mistakes that you see, but concentrate on making sure that your paper flows. You could even ask a friend or a teacher to read your paper as well. If they have any recommendations, take their advice. I revise my own papers by following these ideas. Even if you think that it's perfect, there are always things to improve.

open

I really like underground music. I feel like main stream music suck now. I have a couple artist that are main stream that I listen to such as, Wale, Faboulous and Kanye West. The artist in my everyday selection aren't the artist most people hear on the radio. Radio music isn't that good enough all you hear the radio is the same songs over and over again. The artist I like that are underground are Playboi Carti, Lil uzi Vert, Future, Travis $cott, Chief Keef, Unotheactivist, dieumoda, Key!, and Madeintyo.

1 post must identify your favorite blog from this course and explain why it was your favorite. Use quotes.

My favorite blog from this course is the first open choice we wrote about. when I lived in Brooklyn i use to travel that was my favorite blog post because I reminisced about all my trips around the world and about my grandma. "n Aruba I rode a jet ski for the first time I was about 8 years old. I couldn't ride the jet ski by myself because I wasn't old enough so my cousin Melissa got on with me but I drove it first then we switch." I actually like jet skis more than I like dirt bikes1 because of that one day in my vacation.

Blog about what you learned and experienced in this class.

In this class what have I experienced is how to use Google in multiple ways. I'm blogging with Google and writing documents. I'm using a search engine for class, that hasn't been done since Ive been in school I think  that is cool.

1 post analyzing 2 posts from your colleagues, using quotes from each post.

"The role of guns in america go all the way back to the American revolutionary war."
This is true everyone back in war time needed a gun against the British. 


When I was younger I played a lot of board games, and a lot of games that had to do with running.  My favorite board game was candy land. I use to play this game all the time I think I was only addicted to it because it had something to do with candy. When it came down to going outside and play my favorite childhood game was hide and seek. I never like to seek always wanted to hide because nobody could ever find me because I was so little. 


I didn't really like candy land but i played it. i really like chess.

1 post about child/adult conflicts

The biggest conflict between parents and their child is that honoring children's need for freedom and exploration while teaching children to be safe. This is why children mostly disobey their parents pertaining to curfews and going out with friends. An parent always want safety for their child, but as a child they just want to have fun and relax under the sun.

1 post about childhood games

My favorite childhood game was 4 square. 4 square is a game where there are 4 players a king, queen, jack and joker. The 4 players stand in a Punnett Square. Throwing a ball to other players square in a floor ping-pong match. the objective of the game is to beat the king and remain king for a plethora of rounds, defending your 4 square kingdom from other players trying to take your 4 square crown.

how to make your own writing more emphatic

Expand their empathy by gaining direct experience of other people’s lives, putting into practice the Native American proverb, “Walk a mile in another man’s moccasins before you criticize him.”

Conflict you have with someone in your family

I have conflict with all my family members. The family member I have the most conflict with is my uncle. My uncle is very annoying all he care about is himself. He will eat the last, cook for himself and no one else. My uncle is very selfish. When it come to money he don't like to spend his own but always asking for money from someone else. I done fought my uncle about 4 or 5 times since I moved to Lithonia.

Role of guns in America

The Roles of guns in America is an open topic. I like the fact that a regular citizen of the United States of age can carry a fire arm. Also, its in the United States Bill of rights to carry a fire arm. I don't think its right to have a gun and just commit murder or kill someone because you have a gun. A gun should only be used if your life, home and family is being threaten.

changing relationship

A changing relationship I've had with my family was when I meet my first cousin for the first time. I was use to being the only grandchild to see my grandpa. It felt strange when he left New York and moved to Georgia.  My grandfather ask for all 8 of his grandchildren to come to his new house over the summer. Ive never meet my first cousins before so I didn't feel comfortable around them. I thought my grandfather was going to show me all the attention. He did not. In the beginning of the summer I told my cousins I hate them all, and wanted to fight all of them but by the end of the summer we were all close."Too bitter to smile, I would not
answer or look at him, but I would just roll over on my back and frown at the ceiling. I never
thought it was funny at all." from Manning's article because i dreaded being there.

Best information

The best information Ive learned from my wiki article is all the different schools that specialize in fashion design. The schools are all over the world not just in the United States. I thought that was pretty cool.
"There are many universities that offer fashion design throughout the United States, usually within the context of a general liberal arts degree. The major concentration incorporating fashion design may have alternative names like Apparel and Textiles or Apparel and Textile Design, and may be housed in departments such as Art and Art History, or Family and Consumer Studies. Some schools, such as Parsons, offer a major in Fashion Management, combining fashion education with business courses."

post about my family

When it comes to my family, I really don't have much of a family. I have relatives, people I'm related to but not really family. I'm not saying that I come from a small family. I have a large amount of relatives such as cousins, aunts and uncles. I don't have any brothers or sisters that I know about. I'm an only child my little brother died with my mom in a car accident when I was only  two years old. My mother was pregnant at the time. I feel as people use the term family to loosely. I'm not a family person when I'm with my family because my family switch up on the so- called people they love. They say your close family will turn on you quicker than the people in the street, I don't trust neither. When family stop having your back and your friends too you got to carry yourself. I was born alone and I'm going to die alone. Carry myself till that day comes.

2 posts from your colleagues, using quotes from each post

I got one post from Alexis Fry, it is College Life (*Open Choice Topic). She had said something very important about being away from your parents in college. "Your no longer with your parents anymore,your now on your own. You have to grow up & Start being your own adult."

The second post I got from Monicia Andrew, which is what makes an effective introduction to a wiki article! Monicia listed her points rather than writing a paragraph. out of all the blogs I've commented on that was something different. She stated,
  1. "It grabs reader’s attention.
  2. It clearly implies an organizational structure of the paper.
  3. Its choice of support is specific and relevant, and provides a clear, connected lead-in to paper’s main idea or thesis.
  4. Position is clearly stated or implied.
  5. It effectively includes one or more of the following strategies:  question"

Effective introduction to a Wikipedia article

The best and most effective way to execute a introduction on the Wikipedia article is to grab the readers attention. If the reader is not interested when reading the introduction to the Wikipedia article then they wouldn't want to read the rest of the article.

Learned about your Wikipedia topic

What I learned about my Wiki Topic is that Fashion design was first started over seas in Europe. Places such as France, Spain and Italy first started a sense of wardrobe that are seen now in the fashion industry. For example, the men in France used to wear high platform shoes to seem taller. Now gender roles have switched and women now wear high platform shoes to seem taller all over the world.

Humor in a strange situation

I find humor in every situation I am in. Humor is the gateway to relieve stress. If put in a strange situation, to find humor go to your hippo-campus and find the funniest memory you have to relieve you out of that strange situation. I find humor in the strange situation because how I look at life every action and reaction  has humor to it at the end of the situation. I just tend to find the humor in the beginning so I wouldn't have to deal with burdens of stress later before the humor settles.

Organization of my Wikipedia article

My Wikipedia article is still undergoing an organizational process. I am going to put my article in chronological order of dates and facts so to the reader it is easier to read and understand. My article cant jump from topic to topic with no organization because to the reader the article would not make any sense. The article I am working on has its own  order so putting the information in order would not be hard.

men and women stereotype each other and which is worse

Men and Women stereotype each other all the time. Men feel as if they are a move dominate sex than women. Men feel stronger and superior; however, women are a smarter sex. I think it is worse when men stereotype women because its always a negative correlation with that stereotype. If a women was to stereotype a man, there would be some negative correlations but also positives. When men stereotype a women there is always a negative correlation.

Readings

The article that I am reading about is about how models run on the runway. The article itself does not have all the information about the runway but it did explain where the runway came from. Wikipedia explains the origin of the cat walk runway The origin of the “catwalk” dates back to the 1800's in the city of Paris and was known as “fashion parades”.

Sloppy vs Neat people

The difference between sloppy and neat people is that, sloppy people act like savages, they have bad eating habits, may be gluten, low class and horrible manners. Neat people aren't savages; however, they have a sense of cleanliness. Neat people carry themselves in a just and upright manner. These the type of people that when you take them out to eat they fold the napkin in there lap. "Cleanliness is next to godliness".

Value of MLA

The value of MLA style is used to help the reader of the paper find work(s) cited. MLA format is also easier for the professor to read. Its a neat style of writing a paper. The work(s) cited is for giving credit at the end of the paper, it allows future researchers reading your paper to have a starting point. MLA format is a way to blend the topic which is being wrote about and existing information to support your paper.

My Wiki Topic

I haven't changed my wiki topic i still pursuing a career in the fashion industry. My wiki topic has to deal with the fashion industry and the business aspect of the fashion world. The fashion industry is more than fancy clothes and different colors of  people garments. its the fashion shows and the analysis of the consumer who buys the outfits.

GAY

  First off, I am against gay marriage. I have nothing against gay people, i just don't agree with people of the same sex to be married. i feel as if gay marriage is unnatural. in history marriage is between a man and women. since the united states has legalized gay marriage, television programs and other networks have been showing more homosexual culture on TV. Everyone in the united states isnt cool with watching homosexual programs on regular TV and cable. i don't want my children growing up thinking it is ok to marry the same sex.
''People may think marriage is a word wholly owned by religion, but actually its wholly owned by the state.'' (Pg,461).

handle a reader in Wikipedia

Handling a reader on Wikipedia is easy. Anyone can post comments and post on Wikipedia but you need work cited pages to back up the information. If you post ignorance on Wikipedia, its going to come up as a red flag. So, when you post on wiki the information has to be factual.

handle a reader in your Doc1

How i handle a reader in my Doc1, I let the reader read over my errors and corrections. My thesis for Doc1 is such a attention grabber that once the reader reads the beginning paragraph his or her attention is drawn to the whole Doc.

Doc1 handles its thesis

My Doc 1 handles the thesis by drawing the readers attention in the whole introductory paragraph. The thesis is the point in the introductory where the key points of the essay are stated.

How I use writing as a tool for learning ?

I really dont like to write but the tools I use to help my learning with writing would most likely be Cornell Notes. You are taking notes in a college level style and after you write a summary of the notes that were taken. I believe that this is the best tool for learning for me.

Over Seas (Open Choice)

Since, I was two years old I've been traveling the world. Before I moved to Georgia when I lived in New York I use to go on cruises around the world. I have been on about 11 cruises. my favorite cruise is when we went to Aruba, The sky was red and the ocean was a mist blue. In Aruba I rode a jet ski for the first time I was about 8 years old. I couldn't ride the jet ski by myself because I wasn't old enough so my cousin Melissa got on with me but I drove it first then we switch. Jet ski's are fast.I was drifting with the blue see, I feel off a couple of times because the jet ski was skipping on the water. I had so much fun being 8 years old and on a jet ski. Being on one is like a dirt bike for water.

What am I learning about my Wiki Topic

I am learning that business marketing is more than getting people to like your business but business marketing It allows businesses to sell products or services to other companies or organizations that resell them, use them in their products or services or use them to support their works.

What I learned from doc 1?

What I learned from doc was that your online appearance is everything. What you put on the internet really reflects who you are internally. People criticize and ridicule over the internet because sometimes they can say anything they want and be anonymous, or people that aren't anonymous say anything they want and get in trouble. The first impression is the best impression, so wouldn't someones first impression over the internet shouldn't it be a good one?  Also, the internet is a place where people show there ignorance.

My Wiki Topic

My Wikipedia topic is about Marketing in the Fashion Business world. This is the field i am thinking about pursuing and there some information on my Wikipedia topic that i did not know of. 
For instance , i didn't know that business marketers have the highest paid salary in the field of business. I've always thought accounting and entrepreneurs were the highest paid in this field. The CEO of H&M: Karl-Johan Persson is a billionaire and even though he is an entrepreneur he studied in business marketing. The same applies to the CEO of ZARA:Óscar Pérez Marcote.

How I use writing to learn

How I use writing to learn I just write any way I feel. I don't have no certain way of flow to writing. i brain storm before I write. What is writing to learn? Writing to learn are informal writing tasks that help students think through key concepts or ideas presented in a course. At times these writing tasks uses less or is limited to five minutes of  class time. These writing tasks can be out of class assignments as well. Our groupDoc1 is an prime example of writing to learn

Doc #1

In class I'm doing a group essay arguing that college students should begin now to create a professional online image. This is the first document in the class and I don't like group essay's; however, I think Google docs makes editing and reviewing a essay easier. Google docs are still missing some simple characteristics such as capitalizing I's in a sentence but the overall system is great. Google docs also saves every two seconds The topic my group is writing about seems easier to write about when you have a group input, then trying to write on this topic by yourself
