Practice Post: Getting to Know You!!

Wow...you're seniors!! Can you believe it? I've known you since the 7th grade, but quite honestly, I don't know that much about you. So, for practice on how to use the blog (and for some easy blog points) I have listed 5 different questions. I would like you to pick 3 of the 5 to answer. This is supposed to be fun, but of course, there are some requirements that need to be addressed in order for you to get the points...

• All questions must be in your answer. You can't write down one word and call it that.
• All answers must be in complete sentence format using proper grammar and punctuation.
• All answers must be school appropriate or they will be deleted and no points will be issued.

 

Questions:

1. Which cartoon character are you most like and why?
2. What do you worry the most about and why?
3. What did you want to be when you grew up when you were in kindergarten? Is it the same occupation you want now as a senior? If not, what did it change to?
4. What food will you NEVER eat and why?
5. If you were a rapper, what would your rap name be and why?

Culture & Technology...really BFFs?

Andrew Murphie and John Potts claim that technology has improved society. However, not all agree. Opponents of this thought feel that technology is making us more individualistic. So, I ask you-do you think that our culture is experiencing a "tyranny of technology"? Do you feel that technology has helped/hurt our society? In what ways do you think it has helped/hurt? Cite specific examples. (If confused, refer to page 57 in your book)

Remember to get all your blog points you must fulfill the following requirements:

 

 *Respond to initial thread using facts, well-thought out ideas, and examples

 

*Comment to 2 different people's comments using facts, well-thought out ideas, and examples. These comments must relate to topic and be school appropriate. 

Total points possible: 20

Due by 3 pm on October 8th.
