Benjamin Franklin wanted the turkey, not the bald eagle, to be our country's symbol. If you had the opportunity to help decide on our nation's symbol, would you choose the turkey or the bald eagle? Or would you choose a different animal all together? Explain your answer.

If I had the opportunity to help decide on our nation's symbol, I would choose the bald eagle. I would choose the bald eagle because it would look more professional. This is why I would choose the bald eagle on our nation's symbol.

In 1965, the famous science-fiction writer Arthur C. Clark remarked, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” What is your view of the idea that advanced technology is no different from magic?

My view is that advanced technology is no different than magic too. I have this view because advanced technology is just technology getting better and more high tech. This is my view of the idea of advanced technology.

On November 19, 1863, President Abraham Lincoln delivered the Gettysburg Address. Using the Internet, learn five (5) facts about the Gettysburg Address and summarize them in your own words. How would today's technology change things?

The Gettysburg Address was wrote from Abe Lincoln. Lincoln's speech was only 10 sentences long.  It doesn't explicitly discuss the war.  Lincoln wasn't the main attraction at the Gettysburg that day. Lastly,  there is only one known photograph of Lincoln at the ceremony. Today's technology would change things because they could use the internet and this like it and use it in the speech.

Write a paragraph that compares the technology that we use extensively in our country and how this same technology may be viewed in a different country.

Some of the technologies that we are currently using in our country are cell phones and computers. The technology that we have now are being viewed from a different country and are viewed by the same eye. This means that our technology and technology from a different country are the same but are used differently.

U.S. residents have some of the highest levels of stress of any nation in the world. Choose a piece of technology, Is this piece of technology increasing the amount of stress in our everyday lives or lessening it? In what ways might this technology affect stress levels?

A piece of technology I choose is a cell phone. This piece of technology is decreasing the amount of stress in our everyday lives. It can affect our stress level by allowing us to get answers faster and easier.

How would your life have been different if you'd grown up 20 years earlier? 10 years earlier? 10 years later? 20 years later? How would technology have affected your life differently? Would you be a different person today (other than age-wise)?

My life would have been way different if I'd grown up 20 years earlier because technology would've been not as high as today. It would be the same for if I'd grown up 10 years earlier. If I was to be grown 10-20 ears later, technology would be out of hand, it'll be so technical advances.

What do you think about the Amazon Echo and your privacy?

I think that the Amazon Echo is interesting. It's cool that its a voice command speaker, but it sucks that it can get your information. My privacy concern is that it can see and tell who is in the home and when they are in the home.

How do you feel as though technology has changed your relationships with other people? Do you consider your interpersonal connection better or worse with the innovations of texting, Twitter, Facebook, and the like? Be specific and cite several examples.

I feel that it made my relationships with other people more awkward in person. I consider my interpersonal connection better with the innovations of texting, like Twitter and Facebook.

This is your rant space. Take the time to rant about a new or old technology that has inconvenienced you in some way or that you feel has a negative impact on society. Go to town!

The new technology that have made me feel negative towards society is the computer. The computer have made me feel negative towards society because the computer has the most high tech thing, not including the cell phone, that is ever invented and people depend on it way too much.

What does digital footprint mean to you? Please reply in your blog. After the video, please reflect on digital footprint.

I think that digital footprint means that the government could follow what you search up and when you searched in up.After seeing the video, digital footprint means and is the tracing of what you go on throughout technology.

November is "National Peanut Butter Lover's Month." A large number of students today are allergic to peanut butter. Some classrooms and/or schools have even become "Peanut Free" zones. Do you think this is fair for the students who are not allergic to peanut butter?

In my opinion, I thinks it's fair for students who aren't allergic to peanut butter to be set in places or zones that are peanut butter free from many reasons. One reason is because it keeps everyone safe and who would eat peanut butter that often. This is one out of many reasons why I think it's fair for students who aren't allergic to peanut butter to be set in places or zones that are peanut butter free.
