    Right. This may seem like a completely impossible task, but trust me, it’s easy. An everyday completely normal task for most people, but you are not most people, are you? Well, there’s one thing you must do. We are assuming you already own a computer and have an email, so the first thing that is vital in this… find your computer. I know! You have to get up, use those long things on the end of your body made for walking, and look. No… that’s the telly. We are looking for something that looks like a smaller telly with a keyboard and a mouse. No, no, no! Not a real mouse! Now get down from your sofa and look for a screen. Yes, that’s it! Gosh, if it takes you this long to find your computer this is going to be a long day.…

    Literacy education primarily has been ruled by written language, which as a result has pushed the teaching of visual images and multimodal elements to the outskirts of the literacy curriculum. In today’s world it seems as though texts that focus primarily on written language are scarce in comparison to multimodal texts that include visual images and a variety of other design features. This is due to the rapid development in technology, which has impacted the way in which people communicate. Nowadays students are confronted with these sorts of texts more so than ever, which means that “continuing to view the world through linguistic and print-based sensibilities limits one’s experiences and narrows the forms of expression and interpretation…

    Hello, I'm Vanessa Medina, a 15-year-old ninth grader at Hamilton High School in Milwaukee. I was born on October 2, 2000. I live with my mother Amy, and sisters Adriana, Alex and Gabby. I have 2 pets, one is a Maltese dog named Buttons and a kitty my family and I rescued named Greenie. I started at a head start school called Guadalupe Head Start-Loyola at the age of 3, then went on to Fairview Charter School, and now I'm at Hamilton. I was doing great at head start because it was mostly playtime and I was outgoing, I was doing pretty good in Fairview too, but as I aged and in the 5th grade I became very introverted. I started having bad grades because I was too nervous to raise my hand for help, or to talk to people that I had known for a…

    As noted in Appendix A-A basic communication model, “the basic communications model is the starting point for analyzing the communications process in terms of the intent of the sender, the needs of the receiver, and the elements of the communications environment” (University of Phoenix, 2009, para. 1). In today’s business one of the most common and widely used forms of communication is e-mail. E-mail sent in a business environment requires a professional vocabulary and tone that is not normally used in personal e-mails yet it still needs to be conversational. According to Nancy Flynn, director of the ePolicy Institute and author of Writing Effective E-mail and E-mail Rules, “the average office worker spends 49 minutes managing e-mail daily, while upper level managers spend up to four hours a day on email” (Mardesich, 2010, guides, para. 3). With so much time spent managing the receipt and sending of e-mails in business it is important that employees understand the basic communication model. Understanding this process when sending e-mails allows employees to communicate more effectively as well as know when to use e-mail, and when another form of communication would be more effective. Any form of communication follows the same basic communication model. E-mail is just a faster and more efficient form of communication. Following is an analysis of three business e-mails using the components of the basic communication process.…

    Well, I am currently 17, scared and optimistic. Also, I am modest and sometimes condescending to others. I hate wasting days by sleeping through them.

Furthermore, like every other teenager, I want a respectable or decent career. A job where I love the moment I walk in, to the moment where I clock out. A career where I love and hate it…

    I am a very involved student, I attend many things inside and outside of school. I have been in our school’s WEB, or where everyone belongs, class, which is similar to ASB. I am in my school’s Drama Class and love being involved in the plays and productions. Along with both of those, I am in the California Junior Scholarship Federation and hold a position in office. I love being in CJSF because I get to help my community and those in need by doing service hours, my favorite places to volunteer are the SPCA, The Remington, and help serve food to the homeless on holidays. The last club/class I am currently in is Yearbook, this is my second year in this class and I love it especially because this year I hold a position in office. I am a dancer and competitive cheerleader along with playing competitive volleyball and basketball. I have kept straight A’s my whole life and am currently Valedictorian for having all A’s throughout my 6th, 7th, and 8th grade year at Pioneer Middle School.

    Is there a balance in multimedia education? I disagree. Has the new wave of technology taken over the classroom? With the fast rise of technology, growing every day I agree that electronic media has its place. Today’s society has a balance of electronic educational media readily available. There is no excuse for American not to be well educated. We have students coming out of high school that cannot read or write, but they are graduating. Are we really well educated? Classroom education is becoming outdated, because America is exposed to an overdose of multimedia. The educational media is now on the rise. What did the world do before there were computers, cell phones, texting, video games, twittering, my space, and Face book? Children would rather watch television all day than pick up a book to read. Television requires little to no effort while reading demands active, cognitive interaction. The internet has taken education from the classroom to the comfort of our homes and our jobs, but there must be a balance. Computers, cell phones, video and audio recordings cannot and should not replace our teachers. That is where there must be a balance. With educational media, we can get flexibility in our busy lives. Children have the options to learn to read, write, and teach themselves right from the internet. At the same time, the internet can teach our children things that they should not have access too. With proper parental guidance, educational media can become very helpful. Computer programs have helped children and adults learn to read and speak foreign languages. Internet programs have taught Americans how to become computer knowledgeable. Multimedia education should be used in a good way. It is not good for children to sit in front of computers all day playing games and texting all day from cell phones. America is lacking in communication skills because we think that texting is more important than one on one…

    While in tenth grade I took grade eleven science and then, in grade eleven, I took grade twelve math and sciences. This resulted in beginning my grade twelve year with three grade twelve courses already completed because I also took a summer school English course. Overall, throughout my education I have worked hard to do well, putting aside the outside influences of family and friends, in order to pursue my post-secondary path. I not only worked ahead in my courses but being a part of the school community has also been an essential factor. I have participated in clubs at school throughout my four years, but I also volunteer and work outside of school. I am currently a member of Girls Respect Group (GRG) and JUMP; I have been a member since grade 11 and grade 9, respectively. In GRG this year I have held a senior position where my duties are more behind-the-scenes. For example, when we hosted the Women’s Day Breakfast I was in charge of writing donation letters, getting in contact with possible guest speakers, etc.; whereas, younger/newer members did more speaking and running around at the actual event. In JUMP I do not hold any positions because I chose to dedicate more time to Girls Respect Group; however, I am still an active member and attend events and meetings…
