Linear Text


Life is changing and we have to rethink about the decisions that we make. These decisions can change us for the better or change us for the worse. Either way we have to think about everything that we do. Because if we don't we'll have to suffer the consequences.

Linear Text Video is about the alterations of digital text. It is how we contribute to the changes of the internet. When searching for something, we're teaching the computer how to become more advanced. The video shows that digital text is improving at a rapid pace. But it's also different, more flexible, move-able, and above all hyper. The were a few applications used to communicate with us viewers. Wesch uses these websites Yahoo, Google, CNN TV, Waybach Machine HTML, and Youtube. It's showing us how digital text can be very different. At the end of the video there were thirteen words. That all have different and significant meanings.

The way that digital and linear text changed the way we communicate with our family is because we can text. Or if we have the iPhone or the latest cell phones we can do video chat.The way linear text changed ourselves is that the more we show interest in technology the more we're going to work with it. For example when we're on Facebook we can tag our fellow friends in a picture or tag them in a status that we post. Also when it comes to making videos we can use that to communicate or just to be funny to or with our fellow friends. Some people ethics have been changed by the forever changing of the digital text. In example when people are having a bad day they turn to a social network to voice their opinions. Or they blog a short story in comparison to how they're feeling. On social networks as in Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, Tumblr; privacy is a major concern for people. Although some people don't have that much of a care for people whose preference is to be nosy. A majority of people would like to control their privacy settings and limit what their viewers can see. It's important for people to be noticed for their work.

When creating my own website I have the absolute power of governance to do whatever you want with it. You can post or do whatever I feel is best for my website. Nobody can tell me what to do or say on it but yourself. On websites such as Ebay, and clothing websites you have the option of buying the items of my desire. The commerce that's taking place is highly impressive. Not just for the companies but the internet is benefiting from this as well. As we're buying these items, were teaching the computer to take note on our personal interest. As we grow older and more aware of the digital world we will grow to love and appeciate all of the things it has done for us.

I interviewed my gym teacher, Hector. I asked him how do he have to rethink his life? He simply answered by saying ever since he was diagnosed with diabetes. Before he was diagnosed with diabetes he didn't care too much for his life stlye. He had to alter some of his habits. For example he has to eat whole wheat grains and exercise more. The complications of diabetes is that he can lose his eye sight or he can lose a limb. His father was also diagnosed with diabetes, Hector is highly appreciative for his second chance at life. He has more time to spend with his wife and children. The changing of digital text is forever changing. It also change the way technology is being used. Especially when texting and or making a new website. I can make the text fall from the top of the page to the bottom. I can have the words in bold, highlighted, or flashing.

Rethinking Schools The article is about rethinking school was talking about the importance of technology use in school. Having computers in schools are highly important. They help the chlidren such as I complete assignments and prepare for our future. much attention has been paid to improving standards, assessments, professional development, curriculum, and instruction, the white paper argues that learning environments themselves are an essential component to supporting successful 21st-century outcomes for students. Tight budgets and worries over the economy, policy makers face tough decisions concerning whether school design really makes a difference in education. Although they believe that learning environments should be physical, they should also have a combination of technology and a hands on approach. This means that we should use computers and books at the same time. In the second video linking to this essay, there was a bike race going on. The men were on these old fashion bicycles that had the larger wheel in the front and the smaller wheel in the back. Also there were people in the gym with the back massage. There was a man walking these streets with the first cell phone that ever came out. Where he happened to meet a man on the corner with a record player. Then comes they new Hyundai driving down the street. The objective of this video is how everything in this world had to be thought about before it was created. It takes thought to create and master something. The cell phone. bicycle, the gym machine, the record player, and the car. Everything is constantly changing for the better. Not only technology but everyday life.
