I think that school uniforms are disgusting. School uniforms violate a student's right to freedom of expression. I think public schools are not the place for uniforms. Our clothing is the way that we kids express ourselves. Another thing is that low income families may not be able to afford uniforms for their child.
If the school wants kids to dress in uniforms then the school should buy the uniforms and give it
to the kids for free. You want it then you pay for it. Everyone should be able to express their own creativity. Every morning I look for my school uniform underneath all of my nice looking clothes. We look the same everyday. But I do agree if we were to have free choice then, yes, we should dress appropriately. But it's most likely we would.
In conclusion, I don't think we should have school uniforms because they don't show individuality and they are boring. Kids don't want to all look the same. Why would we want to look like everyone else.

Tablets will increase learning in high school. It will help students when it comes to bringing books back and forth. With the tablet you won't have to bring book to and from school you can just have the tablet with your books on it. People will be able to get internet examples if they don't understand what is going on in class.
The tablets will be a great help, the teachers will be able to give test on the tablet. People will be able to see what they did wrong on the assignment. Then they can change and correct themselves. This is a effective way to increase learning.

How does flaming show a lack of respect? Do you respect people who flame others? Why?
Flaming shows lack of respect because the person is verbally abusing someone. It's a bad thing to do to slander people. I don't respect people who flame others. It's bad and I would never do that. It gives people bad reputations.

Do you think that the passing the HSPA should be a requirement for graduation? Do standardized test measure what you really know? Why?
I don't think HSPA should be a graduation requirement. Some people can be bad test takers and fail the test and can't graduate. That might be the determining factor and it might stop you cause it doesn't measure what you know. It doesn't test you on what you on it's on what they want it to be.
Do you think the HSPA test should be given on a computer or over the Internet? Would most students do better or worse? Would the results be the same? Would you prefer to take the test the traditional way or on a computer? Why?
I don't think the HSPA should not be given on the computer. It should be given the traditional way, people would get frustrated because the internet might not work or some problem can happen with the computers. Thus the old more efficient way is better. The result would be better on a written test.
Are you giving your best effort in this class? Do you always work to the best of your ability? What are you going to do to improve you effort in school and especially this class?
I am giving my best efforts in class, I always strive to do good. I am always working to the best of my abilities. I try to do my work everyday. I will work hard and avoid distractions to improve my grade in class.

I overcame the part of adding html tags that was a hard part.
What is the one thing you would do different on your project?One
One thing I would do different on my project is add more info to the project.
What do you like best about your project?
I like changing the color of the background the most about the project.
What do you think are the advantages off cloud computing? What do you like about the iCloud? What problems if any do you see with the iCloud?
The advantages of the iCloud is that you always get the what you download on your other devices. This is so helpful because you don't have to waste more money and it takes less time. I like that you can continue your work on any other device. I dont really see any problem with the iCloud.

Netiquette is how you act online. It's the way you treat people and present yourself to others. You have standards for how your suppose to act on the internet.
Rule 1 Remember the Human-
The golden rule your parents and your kindergarten teacher taught you was pretty simple: Do unto others as you'd have others do unto you. Imagine how you'd feel if you were in the other person's shoes. Stand up for yourself, but try not to hurt people's feelings.
Rule 3 Know where you are in cyberspace
What's perfectly acceptable in one area may be dreadfully rude in another. For example, in most TV discussion groups, passing on idle gossip is perfectly permissible. But throwing around unsubstantiated rumors in a journalists' mailing list will make you very unpopular there.
Rule 5 Make yourself look good online
As in the world at large, most people who communicate online just want to be liked. Networks -- particularly discussion groups -- let you reach out to people you'd otherwise never meet. And none of them can see you. You won't be judged by the color of your skin, eyes, or hair, your weight, your age, or your clothing.
Rule 6 Share expert knowledge
The strength of cyberspace is in its numbers. The reason asking questions online works is that a lot of knowledgeable people are reading the questions. And if even a few of them offer intelligent answers, the sum total of world knowledge increases. The Internet itself was founded and grew because scientists wanted to share information. Gradually, the rest of us got in on the act.
Rule 9 Don't abuse your power
Some people in cyberspace have more power than others. There are wizards in MUDs (multi-user dungeons), experts in every office, and system administrators in every system.
Knowing more than others, or having more power than they do, does not give you the right to take advantage of them. For example, sysadmins should never read private email.
Netiquette is the way you treat yourself an others online. Be mindful of where you are and always know what you are doing.

I think Steve Jobs was a great man. He changed the way the world works. He developed great technology and shared it with everyone. Steve Jobs made extraordinary things with his brain and made the world prosper. He showed how anyone can do anything with their mind.
I believe you should treat people the way you want to be treated. That's the way I live my life, I want people to treat me good but I could only get that if I treat people right. I want to be able to go through life saying I did a good job treating people right.
I let this guide me through life as a way that I live. This is kinda my motto, it's important because I base everything I do on this. Its like it determines what I do everyday.
