There is only one problem with this video. When i went to interview the head of the department, he had previously lost his voice so he could not talk very loud. Thats the reason why his voice is so low. I tried to make it louder but it did not work.

15I Studying

This week my friends and me went to the library and started studying for out finals. It was very good for me because it is better when you can talk about the problem because you get different prospective.

This week has been very hard and this study group really helped me stay focused. It also helped me learn more about my finals. I like hearing other students talk about it because I feel like it sticks in mind.  I hope that all this studying gets me good grades on my finals.

5B FINALS:)

I am a little stressed from finals, but making up a schedule of when I’m going to study really helps. I decided that everyday when I come back from school I will look at everything that I have to study and divided them up into the ones that I NEED to study and the ones I know. So far I have not had any difficulty in trying to study.

 I believe that this is the easiest it gest because as we go into sophomore year it will be harder and harder. That is why I will try my best into everything I do. I want to get myself ready for when things do become hard. I think that this year was a easy year. I did not have much work to do and as finals came around I started to lose control. I thought that finals were going to be easy but I guess not. I am trying my hardest not to fail at anything I do.

Anyways, this semester I will make sure to be successful because it is my first year and I don’t want to be disappointed with my grades. I think I have worked too hard to fail. This semester is going to end in a good note and I am happy to end in such a good way. It takes away all the fear of failing because I know that if I study there is not way for me to fail.

15A Helpful Comments

I believe that this week was very helpful for me. I saw what everyone was doing and it gave me an idea of how I am going to do mine. Most of them were very funny and it kind of made me feel bad about mine. But watching this made me think of funny skits I can do. From watching all of the projects I decided to film my boyfriend stressing about writing a paper. I am also going to include his dog in it. I decided that the dog is going to give him advice and not me.

While I was watching the projects, I realized that I needed to look for glitches in my project. I really needed the class to give me advice because it is better to hear what other people had to say. For example, I did not realize that my music was too loud. I thought that my music was perfect. I was glad Gabby told me that because I would not want the audience to just focus on the music.

It was nice to give feedback to other students because it allowed them to fix their project and make it better. I realize that you cannot please everyone but the comments help a lot.

I also learned that I needed to add a lot of stuff I did not think about. I need to add more slides and make it longer.  I believe that my project will come out good because I got a lot of feedback on what I should do.

15V Autonomy

Autonomy- the right or condition of self-government

Autonomy is the state of existing or acting separately from others. It is very important to a college student and teachers. In college teachers are suppose to encourage individual Autonomy. When a teacher encourages free will it allows the students to think by them selves and not in a group. It allows them to have self-determination. As a student we have to make our own choices that makes us different from everyone else.

Two new words that I learned this week were penchant, which means a strong liking of something or a strong tendency to act a certain way, and endowment, which means the act of providing money to support a school.

14V Investment

Investment- the action or process of investing money for profit or material result.

When people hear the word investment they think of money and investing in a stock. But this word is much more than that. Investment relates to college students because we invest a lot of money to get a good education for the future. Also you are investing your time into studying and working. College is a very big investment because you are investing your time and money.

Two new words that I learned this week are valence, which means the combining of powers, and indeterminacy, which means the equality of being vague and poorly defined.

14I Pizza Time!!!

This week Kali and I went to Caesars Pizza near Southern. It was cheap and fun. We went there because we were soo hungry for pizza. Before when we would pass by it we would always see a man holding a sign or dressed as something and this time we took the chance and went it. The pizza was delicious and I saved a lot of money. It was a good experience! I am hoping that we could go there another time with more friends because that would make it more entertaining. I suggest that next time we should go study and eat pizza at the same time!
