Pictures of Yourself

Students should be able to use real photos of themselves in a blog when they are showing a fun time that they had with their friends and family. If its just showing a fun time that someone had, they shouldn't be told that they can't put a picture of themselves on their own blog.

Challenge 1 in the March 2010 challenge

Challenge 1

I think that you should view my blog. I have some very interesting posts and I think you could learn a few things from most of them. I tend to have a new blog every once in a while, so keep checking my blog to see what new and interesting thing I wrote about.

Learning

The biggest hurdle I have with learning is that normally when I'm at school, I'm way too tired to focus on my work. It's hard to focus when you are falling in and out of sleep. I can stay awake and enjoy learning mat, however. If I could learn anything in the world right now, I would want to learn how to become a sports radio broadcaster. I think this would be a lot of fun. When I get out of high school, I would like to go to college. About five years from now, I plan on being a very successful person in an electrical engineering job. It would be nice to work for a place like Plexus. If not, I could look up ideas on this electrical engineering website.

Web 2.0 Tool

The choice I made was the Animoto video. Animoto is completely free. You can present pictures and create videos. You can use this site to show a video for a class project so the people have a visual of what you are talking about. Overall, this tool seems very useful for presenting things in a whole new way for people.

Me as a Writer

Lately I think I have become a better all around writer. I'm still not a great writer, but I have learned a lot of good new techniques. I have faced "writers block" before and it's not fun. I still think I have improved in my writing a lot though. One thing I do well in writing is making good conversations, especially moving the tag around and not always putting it at the end. One thing I still struggle with is using more imagery.

The Country I Want To Communicate With

I chose Ethiopia because it is a really cool country. I like how they use the Amarigna, Oromigna, and English languages in their culture to communicate. If I could ask them something it would be, "How did you learn to use all of these different languages?"
