Words for teens

I do some what agree to this article. This article both describes how people don't care about a lot of things anymore and they think everyone owes them everything. But in the same way there are some parts of this article that don't make a whole lot of sense like he says make a raft, which doesn't really relate to any of it but over all it is a helpful article.

Chrome VS Symbaloo

Overall I think Chrome is a better program to use because it is always there and it is required to use the internet and the ease of use is absolutely amazing. I would recommend chrome because it is an internet platform and it also can be used to save your favorite pages and to keep things you want in order. the only problem with chrome is that trying to take off your bookmarks takes a long time instead of Symbaloo.

Infographic

log Post: (respond with at least 10 sentences - hopefully even more)

Today we will begin using online tools to create what is called an "Infographic".
Take your time & conduct some research on infographics.
  • What is an infographic?
  • What is the purpose of an infographic?
  • What type of information is best displayed in an infographic?
  • How can an infographic help convey your message to an audience?
  • How might you use an infographic in your class assignments?
Find 2 examples of infographics that you think are very cool/useful to you.  Post the infographics on your blog & make sure to cite where you found them.





 An info graphic is a picture, animation or photo of something you are trying to show the common person and or tell them about. The key to creating an info graphic is to use the least amount of words possible and to describe the thing you are trying to show with the most descriptive things. The purpose of an info graphic is to help the viewer understand something you are trying to describe to them by using the largest amount of photos and descriptive animations possible. The best type of info graphic is one in which has the least amount of words and has the most photos and can describe the product or subject very well.an info graphic can convey a positive and negative message to the reader or viewer it just depends on how the author of it describes the product. I think using an info graphic for a school assignment would be both very beneficiary to the student and the author because of the ease of design and also the student because the chances of the student becoming confused is a lot less and it a lot greater benefits.

Canva VS Lucid Press

The easiest to join would have been Canva, just because of the server issues that lucid press gave me. Overall the easier one to use in the end would have to be Lucid Press because of how easy it was to customize your templates and make them how you wanted them. also the best thing about Lucid Press was how professional it looked and how easy it was, the main problem was creating a login and or getting into one of their servers. The thing I liked about Canva was how easy it was to login and start creating your templates, and other peoples templates where easy to use and customize. The only two problems that I had with Canva were that you were limited on what you could do if you didn't pay for it and how unprofessional it looked. In my opinion the program that created the trendiest and or the better choice was Lucid Press. By far Lucid Press offered a Plethora of free features to use at your disposal and it also offered a lot better interface that was a lot easier to use. As an overall pick I choose Lucid Press because of all of the free features it has and also how straight forward it was and how easy it was to change things and customize your template.

My Dream Business

My business would be to make boats. Halliburton would make everything from luxury yachts to small performance race boats and we would also have a contract with the United States Military. Our business would have two Different Locations: The first in Texas. and the second in California. We would be contracted with the military to provide them with the newest and best equipment on the market and we also would make boats for the public and commercial use.

Three Different Types of Canva

Here are the days my brothers and I are leaving to go on a ski trip to Denver. We haven't chosen the resort yet because we have a ton of different options when we get to Denver.

Here is a quote that pertains's really well to what I think of when people ask "what drives you" and shows how things can really drive people.

Blog Post 2/13/2017

This weekend I attended Sweet Heart. I went with a girl named Katie, and we went as friends. We had a fun time and the dance was well organized in a way that every one who attended could be apart of it. No I did not attend the BV VS South West game. We decided to eat at Pinstripes because of the location and how easy it was to get in and out quickly.



We took a photo in the lobby of Pinstripes.
















Here is a photo of who was waiting for me when I got home.

Ted Talk


Children these days have no idea what it is like to work. They don't have a disconnect and they just don't care about anything anymore. the younger generation needs to learn to respect their elders and to slow down to do things correctly the first time instead of rushing through life and everything they are doing and spend some decent time on something important. The newer generation needs to learn better social skills and learn on how to better physically communicate with other people.I do agree with the woman who spoke during the Ted Talk. She made an excellent point to point out how the younger generation hasn't made the connections to other people that the older generation has and that the younger generation hasn't created the bonds with people or mastered their people skills like the older generation. I will change my current behaviors because it will benefit me in the long run and help my public figure to open me up and get to know new people. I think this will benefit the future generations because it will show them an example of how it was before we had all of the technology and it will matter to them on what they are doing.

Project Reflection

                                                                  Link to Google Slides





As an overall experience, not collaborating overall made me more productive because I had nothing to distract me and there was nothing else to do except the project. I think I could conduct a business class like this, although it would be challenging because I wouldn't get that connection with the students that is needed but it would also just be able to post out the class information and all of the assignments. Overall though I think there would be some confusion but it would have to be the students responsibility to figure it out so that they could finish the class with the grade they wanted. I learned from this experience and though it was very helpful in a way that the assignment was very straight forward and there weren't any hoops to jump through and there also weren't any things we had to turn in along the way. Overall I think that my peers and my project partner will be very happy with the end product.
