Technology is a tool that we use everyday of our lifes, we use it to wake up in the morning and to go to to sleep at night, for us people of the 21 century technology is everything so on this fourth quarter we created an essay and a webpage all with information about new media and how it affects our lives in positive and negative ways.
For the creation of a good written essay there is a lot of work you need to do, and for my essay I had five steps that were essential so that my essay was perfect. First I made a brainstorm where I wrote in a paper all the ideas and thoughts I have about new media, then I wrote a prewrite where I textually wrote ideas and facts and research I has dpne over the days, as my third step I wrote the essay wich has as a main topic how technology is affecting us in a bad way, I gave three main ideas wich I supported with research and other articles about new media we read in class, it had a counter argument and a conclusion wich made it a good essay. Then one of my classmates helped me to revise and change my essay and last but not least I made corrections so that it was all ready to create a web page. For my second part of the project I decided to do a webpage wich includes all the 3 main topics, also it has pictures and videos that help the visitor to understand better the effect of new media on humans. For the creation of my webpage I started with creating a new page on my weebly account, I had to look for a font that was appropriate for the new media topic. Then I searched for pictures and videos about new media so that I could put them on my webpage, I created little pages on my webpage each one with a different topic of my essay. I posted my pictures that I took of students of ACG using technology and I posted them. On my topics I included citations that lead to other articles and at last I had a very good webpage with lots of information abour new media. The creation of both projects had similarities amd diferences wich made each one special in a way. For example they both talk about new media and have the exact same ideas, all research and sources cited on the web page are the same from the essay and they both include texts that help with the understanding of the topic. There are also some differences, for example, the web is a more and new didactive way to learn about any topic, specially when is technology you are learning about, an essay is more boring to the public because is very long and tedious. The essay and the webpage both have some pleasures and difficulties on its creation. The pleasures of the essay is that for me personal is very easy to write, I have a very fluid thinking wich helps m eto write and develope ideas faster. It also has its difficulties, for example the essay dosent go to a bigger audience its stock in a paper. For the new media it was very easy to create the webpage it self but some times technical issues made it hard. Overall the creation of this two projects was very good for learning and I had fun creating the webpage and the essay. |

narrative
You can picture the smell of rotten fruit and the poop of birds everywhere; it has been there for the last 40 years. You can't see or hear little kids playing because things have come to the point in which no one moves because of their obesity, it's impossible. My name is Lana, since I was 5 years old I started to realize in what kind of horrible world I lived in, how houses and cars and even plains are bigger, because everyday people, including my family are becoming more and more obese, they don't move because the personal robots do everything for us, and it has come to a point in which even robots are mad about the situation.
I have always been different from others, I like to play outside and go to school with other kids, but is sad to go outside and see how schools and playgrounds are closed because kids are too busy playing on their iPods and watching TV on their enormous beds. My only friend is my imagination, I will always hope that someday I will have the opportunity to show the world how things where back in time, how people played outside and read books, kids loved sports and girls played with each other and felt like princesses, adults were in love with life and their jobs. Now, in the year 3012 jobs have disappeared and the world survives with help of the robots that have adopted the roles of police men, lawyers and even surgeons. Someday things will be better and I will find a way to change my life and the lives of every single human being on earth.
Ten years have passed since I told you about my strange and wrong society. In these ten years I created a group of soldiers of the future, they are all robots but represent more than just that to me, they are the closest thing I have to a family. We are not violent soldiers but are hopeful and educated, we have read all sports magazines that exist in the abandoned library of our city, and our plan is to create a sport that can bring things to normal and end this atrocious time period which the only created destruction.
50 years later...
First let me introduce myself, my name is Sofia, my mom was called Lana, every day of my life she told me about her stories and her friends and how she saved me and the future of everyone. Today I am going to tell you her story.
"Where is it?" Lana whispered to Oscar
"I don't know it vanished" and they both walked into the dark library where they could see two little green eyes that reflected fear, it was Chloe, the librarian that was trapped there because she wanted a book and in the process she got stock in the chair, she wasn't able to move.
“please help me " Chloe screamed
“We will, but you have to promise us that you would help us to change the world, you would get thinner, and you would help us on creating the sport that would change this society.” Lana said with this look of hope in her eyes.
” Ok I promise” Chloe said
” How did you get there” Oscar asked Chloe
” I was on my house trying to play minecraft on my ipad, and suddenly I remembered how I loved books, so I went for one and then I got stock and then you all came” she responded and looked surprise to see all the robots looking her.
Then Lana and Oscar took a hammer and break the chair in peaces until Chloe was free.
After a few months Chloe was in shape to play the new sport that Lana and Oscar where creating. That same day Chloe Oscar and Lana started to play this new game named soccer, at first it was hard to Chloe to move but then she started to run and she filed free, they played on the old stadium of the city, you could feel the joy of that new friendship that was now starting. Eventually people started to standup from their beds and started to feel the need to feel the same joy that Chloe, Oscar and Lana where feeling. Since that day things started to change, people get healthy and with the years things started to be like back in 2012.
