Genocides Project

During our lesson on the Holocaust, we also were learning about different genocides around the world. We were assigned to work with our group, and this is the slideshow we produced. My section that I had to work on was Cambodia. This slideshow is also on my classmate's blog pages Bryce and Jarod.

United Nations Sustainable Development Goals

What I have learned from the UN Sustainable Development Goals so far is you can help without even getting off your sofa, and it is easy to help. What I have been doing differently is trying to reduce the amount of paper I use and turning off the lights when I leave the room. I also reduce the amount of light I use, by trying to use natural light so I don't have the lights on. I see myself in the future doing what i'm doing now and maybe raising money to try to help. Also, I see myself planting new vegetation that could help. The things I have been doing helps because, for starters every little bit helps. Also, not using a lot of paper helps reduce the amount of trees that are cut down. Also, turning off the lights save electricity. The influence I could make on the world could help a lot. I could speak at public places like malls, the post office and the town hall. Also, I could spread the memo by posts and texts. I can’t wait to share the info I learned with my family and friends. I have learned a lot from the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

        Throughout the classroom examination of election issues and the candidates I learned that there are a lot more issues in this world than I ever could have thought. For example, there is Trans-Pacific Partnership, I never knew that existed. Also, I learned that of all the candidates, Donald Trump and I shared the most in common, for example Donald Trump and I both agree on declaring war on ISIS, and I don't think we should pay for undocumented illegal immigrants. I learned that there are still four candidates, I only thought there was two, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. I learned that the candidates sometimes agree on the same things, for example Donald Trump says I don't want undocumented, illegal immigrants, while Hillary Clinton says I want undocumented, illegal immigrants. I thought the questions were hard to answer as well, for example you had to think hard because there is not a right or wrong answer. I also learned that there are more political parties than just Democrat and Republican, for example there are free runners too. I learned a lot so far in this class, I can’t wait to learn more.

Why You Should Use Open, Closed Question, and Search Tips

One should use both open and closed questions because if one wanted to know more information about someone you should use open questions. But if one wanted someone's opinions you could use a closed question to get the answer faster and if one needs to ask more people's opinions, you could go through faster, unlike open questions. For example, a closed question is like “How are you?” I could answer like “I'm good how about you.”and an open question is like “Why did you chose hockey to play instead of any other sport?” I could answer like this “I chose to play hockey because my older brother did and he inspired me to start to play. I would like to be just like him.” Those are just some examples of open and closed questions.

One should use Google search tips for easier access to the pages that they want. There are many ways to get better results from Google. For example, the minus sign, use it to disclude certain words “Strawberry Smoothie -Banana.” One could also use the double quotation marks. For example, if Google is being very stubborn and when you search “Why is the sky blue?” and instead it turns up as “Sky blue why is the?” One should say instead “ “Why is the sky blue?” “
