Hist HW #12 Wordle

• April 16, 2013

I created this wordle using an English paper I wrote earlier this semester on the importance of content and form in writing. Wordle is an interesting way to turn my five page paper into something more interesting to look at. With “form” and “content” being the biggest words, it’s easy to determine what my paper […]

HW5… Ethics & Legality

• February 27, 2013

For Homework 5 I decided to look at the Teachers Pay Teachers website.  In relation to ethics, the website seems pretty ethical to me. It doesn’t seem to be trying to scam or harm teachers in any way. The website itself says that it is an open marketplace for educators and to me, there is nothing […]

A Change in the Weather Brings a Change in Attitude.

• January 29, 2013

As you walk around George Mason University’s campus today, you see more friendly faces and more lingering amongst the students. This was not the case yesterday. The students of GMU seemed to be as cold and rainy as the weather yesterday. You barely caught a glimpse a smile or any friends that stopped to greet […]


“The Digital Landscape” Response…

• January 27, 2013

I found it most interesting that Vannevar Bush started out his article by pointing out that this is a “war” we have all played a part in. Also, the editor points out, “inventions have extended man’s physical powers rather than the powers of his mind.” — I find these two statements to be most interesting […]
