College

I dont think i would want to go to a school for web design because i dont want being a web designer as my career. I wouldnt want to choose any of the careers the speaker talked about because the last thing i ever want to do is go into a field that focuses on visual art of any kind. I do balieve these are lucrative careers because there is so much demand for the work people with these career choices can do. I dont want any of these careers because i hate drawing and any other kind of picture creation.

Adobe Photoshop

I think that adobe photoshop is pretty useful because it has many tools and you can create layers and shapes and even merge them, so it is very useful for creating and editing a website. I dont like how it is so complicated to use though, like how figuring out how to change the color of a shape is so hard to figure out. The complication isnt so bad though once you get the hang of it.
I think it is so popular because it is definetly a very useful for creating and designing a web page.
I think over time using it will become easier to use, but for now it is difficult to use.

School Laptops

Our school is implementing a new program next year in which every student will be given a laptop, who will probably have to pay for their own laptops. I really dont have much of an opinion about this program i regret to say. The only news ive heard about this is that we will be geting laptops, but i dont know how the laptops wil be used with classes, how they will be payed for, or any information at all about how the school will function with these. I think it is a good idea if they have figured out a way to monitor kids in class to see what they are doing on their laptops, and doing their work instead of playing games, like mybe blocking certain websites using the school routers themselves, or the way Mr. Murphy has set up his computer so he can see the screens of everyone in class. I really cant say to much about who should pay for the laptops because I dont know how much they will cost, but I wouldnt imagine much so I predict it will be on the students to pay for their laptops. I think that this program is a very good idea if teachers have figured out ways to use it to enhance student's learning experience, but I really cant imagine any logical reason of why the laptops will help any more then the computer labs already do. Computer classes have classrooms with computers and other classrooms have computer rooms to use, so I really dont see how the laptops are necessary. It sounds like a great idea to give every student a laptop, but i have no idea how the laptops are going to help teachers do their jobs any better.

My Weekend

My weekend was pretty fun because i found a new game. I started playing a game called Minecraft because my Halo Reach keeps disconnecting me from xbox live. I had alot of fun because minecraft lets you build things, so i never ran out of things to do. I was also working on my project all weekend, mainly supervising my teammates to make sure they are doing their work because myn was already done by saterday. Overall my weekend was pretty busy and fun, so it was a good weekend.
