Abby’s Lament starts off the beginning paragraph talking about Abby and how she doesn’t believe that her voice can be heard and that her opinion doesn’t matter. Yagelski believes she is wrong, everyone’s opinion matters in society. He believes that it can be heard through education and comprehension of literature. After the opening paragraph the essay goes into how Yagelski was at a high school talking to teachers and students about how during this era of technology and the internet that it is easier for people to make their voice be heard and to make a difference. When he makes the point that everyone can make their voice heard, Abby, one of the students said that hers does not matter in society and it can’t make an impact.
Generally speaking when attending an online school over a campus college, the participation grades are based differently. In online schools your participation grade is based on meeting the posting requirements and posting on the required discussion questions. Most of the time grades for schools online are based on points. A student’s professor will post a rubric in your materials for the student to follow to meet all the points. A large concern to some students may have when considering attending college online is the fact that it may be harder to get personal help and learn the material through your professor.
What I Wish I learned In College Is The Price Tag on a College Education Really Worth it? As I slide into the seat of my first class of the day, I look around at the faces of the students who have all come prepared with their single subject composition books, save the earth nalgene bottles, and hands neatly folded on their laps as they all sit around the group discussion table. It is 9:04 on a Thursday and these people are genuinely excited to be in this class, my first indicator that this is the wrong class for me; INTD240, Women’s and Gender studies. This is a writing intensive class that the school requires something equal or similar to in order to graduate. I prepare myself, put my phone on vibrate out of respect, and place my belonging on the floor beside me, only imagining what the topic of discussion for this class is today.
While only the Facebook group and posters were implemented in our project, we were able to discuss many other solutions as everyone was comfortable giving feedback knowing they would be given serious consideration. http://kairen88.blogspot.com.au/2010/04/final-reflection-on-teamwork-and.html Page 1 of 4 CG1413: Final Reflection on Teamwork and Communication 8/05/13 1:33 AM Contributing and taking constructive feedback is an important skill in communication. This was apparent when I was trying to compile our slides in preparation of the presentation. With the amount of time and effort put into our project, summing up the
Sometime, they even begin the final project without the instructor’s authorization and proper guidance forgetting that without the instructions they might give the wrong information. An online student also expects services at all time of the night or day. They need to understand that waiting is part if teaching and learning for the internet speed is not the same as the course speed. Internet teaching is all about following instructions and doing your work on time. Traditional students must write a thesis and take notes before writing a research

On Xbox Live “You're the star, you are the center of attention”(Beck and Wade 588). As for Facebook I normally only get on it with me phone. I use Facebook when I am board such as when I am waiting to go into class or maybe when I am just sitting around the house with nothing to do. I use Facebook and Twitter everyday, but only for about 10 minutes a day for about 70 minutes a week. Xbox is has more action and more of a role playing thing, while Facebook and Twitter is a place where you go to see what your friends are up to or to look at pictures and stuff.
Going to either traditional or online college is a big step in a student’s life, and teachers are there to help and guide them through any situations that arise. In a traditional school setting students are able to speak and interact with teachers, because they are present in the classroom. Students are able to ask questions about the class material or about help with homework if needed. The traditional setting students would get an immediate answer to the questions that they asked. In some cases students are able to understand course material and the hands on experience when they are face- face with the teacher.
Being able to attend college online, communicating with my long distance relatives and taking care of all my finances online are just a few ways technology has simplified my life. Technology has definitely changed the way students learn, how teachers teach and whether or not either one has to step foot into a classroom. In my case, getting into a classroom became almost impossible. My boss commutes back and forth from New York City every day. Most days she would come home on time, but it always seemed that, on days, she knew I had to get to class; she would either miss her train or take a later train home.
