last weekly blog

this week was an easy week or me. Tuesday we just reviewed on anothers papers and made corrections. Thursday we learned how to use movie maker. I am glad we learned how to use this because i didn't even know i had this on my computer. I think i did ok on my project 2 paper, but i am having a hard time keeping a log of my cell phone because i use it soooo much. i have a few pages already and i am only on day 4. I'm glad nicole made this our last week of blog posts, because its one thing i dont have to try and remember to do. Project 4 is going to be a long on and i kind of cant ait for it to really get rolling and then be over.

this week we just worked on project 3 and did a lot to help us with project 3. She gave us a lot of useful information on how to do quotes ad cite sourced. I think her doing the quote hamburger was very helpful since we need to have quotes and stuff in our paper. I'm having trouble getting my thoughts together for this paper an every time i start writing it i feel like i am repeating myself. I don't feel like i have enough facts helping me prove my point but i don't want to have to much information because then it will sound to much like a research paper. I think its because this has been a busy eek for me and i haven't had my head clear enough to write this paper.

blog week of the 20th

this week we did a lot of different things to get us ready to write the paper. I really like that she showed us that site so that we can find resources but we don't have to go to the library for most of it. I didn't like the rebuttal thing we had to do though because i guess i took it in the wrong way and once we talked about it i saw another side of it. Then she told us why it was written and it totally made sense. The brainstorm thing on the bubbl site was awesome i actually might use that a lot for paper ideas. it really helped get my brain going on ideas. i dont think the blog we did in class helped that much but reading over the things she poseted gave me some good ideas.

Class post 10/23

questions for project 3

1. that uniforms should be kept in private schools and for military

2. need for individuality, always be judgment from peers uniforms wont stop that, who wants to wear the same thing 5 days a week, cost, and intruders from other schools

3. the cost, individuality, or that intruders can still make there way into a school with uniforms and might be spotted easier but it still can happen.

4. costs less, everyone will feel better, intruders will be spotted easily

5. it might seem that uniforms will cost a family less,

6. however in the end you could end up spend more

7. It might seem that uniforms will cost a family less, however in the end it could cost a family more because of the expense of uniforms and the expense of normal clothing for weekends and holiday breaks.

HW post

for several days now we have been seeing things about the economy and what Bush is going to do about it and what the presidential candidates are going to do about it. also there are smaller things in the daily kent stater about DUI's on bikes. I think thats the economy is much more important then DUI on a bike. We are never gong to see the end of the economy thing because it is going o take a lot of work to fix it. everyone is doing research on ways to help our economy but everything turns out the same and not that much is ever done about it.

weekly post oct 13-19

This week i class we started talking about project 3. This one worries me most out of all three projects because we have to have sources and pictures in the paper. Also, we are aloud to write about anything we can argue. I think i am going to have a hard time picking a topic because i have no idea what i want to write about. I did a web search on most common papers that are argued and that didn't even narrow it down. W also did that 500 word thing which my group could not get to make 500 words but we did learn about the cannons of rhetoric which was pretty cool. We also made that newspaper article which was pretty neat i just wish i knew how to use the different tools the computer has to of made the newspaper look more realistic. I think doing the newspaper and the 500 word essay will in the end help with project 3.
