Amazon Prime Air

Amazon is very excited to share the Prime Air- something they have been on in there next generation R&D lab. The goal of this new delivery system is to get packages into customers hands in thirty mins or less using unmanned aerial vehicles. Putting Prime Air into commercial use will take years as we advance the technology and wait for the necessary FAA rules and regulations. Some people are concerned that how will Prime Air know where to drop your package. Also whats stopping kids from shooting them down and stealing the package. Hopefully this is put into consideration after sending them out.

Twitter

Twitter can be used for education for a couple of reasons. Such as class participation. Our maybe even some projects. Some students may not participate in class because they are shy. But if they have to tweet something they'll do it because they are not getting involved with others. An for projects you can have students work together and try to tweet something with a bunch of hash tags that describe this class.

Wiki Research

A wiki can be used in my current classes to communicate in a group if your doing a project. Such history and science. So we can see what we need and what we have. The benefits of using a wiki is its easy to communicate and anyone you want can see it. We can create one in this class if we did a group project to create a cool wiki. The only fault there would be is that I and probably many others don't have much experience with wikis.

Invisibility Cloak

         If i was chosen to give the chance to wear an invisibility cloak. I would perform good deeds. I would help people if they were in danger. Especially if they are being hurt by someone or something.
         I would help people if they were getting bullied. I would stop the bully and defend the kid. Also if people were struggling to get something done. I would help them to make sure they get there things done. So they wouldn't get in trouble.

    GTA V Online Launch



    The launch of GTA V last month was a success by any measure, but Tuesday's debut of GTA Online wasn't quite as smooth. Rockstar Games itself predicted a buggy arrival for its game's online counterpart and said it bought new servers ahead of time to support the predicted demand. While GTA V had record breaking sales, to many people tried to play online on the launch Tuesday. Which made the online servers bust with to much players. Rockstar Games is currently trying to fix this situation. But with all the online players anticipating to get back on and play it. Will probably lead to another shut down.

    World History

    World History - Mrs. Forsyth

    For World History, my teacher is Mrs. Forsyth. I expect to learn more about other cultures. We don't take any class trips. But there are some interesting objects in her room such as her posters. An all there cool statue figuresWe may use technology in her class. Like laptops for projects.  We have one do now every day. Which isn't bad because its mostly about our homework.Or what we recently learned. So all in all i think that world history will be a good class during the course of the year.
