1. Plagiarism is when you take someones work and not cite where you had got the information.
2. To avoid plagiarism it's best to quote, tell the author had written it and tell the source where you had received it.
3. Put a work cited or bibliography at the end of the multimedia essay.
4. It was interesting to see the different music Bob Dillon had remixed.

In the two videos shown, I have shown the compare and contrast method to snowboard history. The first video is about how snowboards came from just being a board. The second video is about the difference in the types of snowboards today. This will show the audience how snowboards have changed drastically in the last 30 years.

The final stop to all the posts, from 1 to 10 I have learned how to think more outside the box when looking into a research topic. Using different sources to allow a better understanding on how to make a new idea. For example using interviews to find different information than an article. The information can be vast for both type of sources. My question that will help with my own research would be, what would be the best option for a new snowboarder that is an adult? I want to have others think about trying to hit the slopes because people can start anywhere and it isn't impossible to get good at it. I learned a lot with this research topic, such as the difference between source and what they can accomplish.

In the snowboarding interview, Kevin Barkly had asked Sandra Mckenzie questions about how she had grown up snowboarding. She had told the audience about how she wasn't able to learn and head up the mountain that much as a kid. She grew the passion towards snowboarding once she started college in Colorado, enabling her to be on the slopes more often. The interview is mostly based on her life story, with how she met pro snowboarder or learned a new trick. Throughout the whole story I couldn't help but thinking that she had started later in her life and still made it a success through growing with friends and teaching others.

This semester has been much different than all the others I have had. To begin, this is my first online class other than the other ones I’m taking this year, so it’s been a struggle to navigate. After I had figure out the best way to check my classes, I figured out that English has become one of my favorite courses because of how free the writing is. There are guidelines, but they are to be pushed outside of the box for better ideas. My favorite part about the journey is being able to see other people’s opinions in my class. Padlet has opened my eyes to business possibilities; it allows personal communication plus being able to add comments or posts to another’s page. Not to mention, our teacher responds to emails and assignments that have been posted. Most teachers don’t give you a reason why the paper had failed. She takes her time to teach her students.

When looking into my topic and all of the articles, I have found that most article are informational without anything to back up the reasoning behind it. I feel as if that is discreditable, and shouldn't be in any college essay. Sadly from looking into the 8 point chart and CRAAP, I learned that it's going to be hard to find ideal ideas.

Maja Skijas made an informative article called Snowboard Materials & Construction, Fiber Glass, and Foam Core, this name describes the main points of what is in the passage. From the first part Skijas had told them about the construction of the board which had included types of snowboards and their benefits. Secondly, she describes what is in the board, with telling how each layer can enhance the riding performance of the board. Maja did a great job giving fine detail on what a snowboard contains. Each component being crucial to the next layer to it.

When Skijas is telling the audience about how the layers can improve the riding experience, it lets them know that all the layer is beneficial and will allow the board to catch a better edge. Found in the article, “If you're looking for high performance, opt for a Snowboard with a sintered base. Then again, if you're on a tight budget, an extruded model will do.” This quote tells the audience that having a sintered base (made with better graphite base, to hold more wax and durability) will allow for a better ride when using a board like that. Having wax on the board allows for a smoother time down the mountain. When repairing a board that has the specs of a “sintered base” it is easier to repair the board.

From reading the article it allows for me to connect the last two sources and when I decide to buy a new board, I will know the type of board I am looking for.

Does anyone know the best types of waxes to use on a board?

Lynn Moore had written an article named Celebration of life planned for snowboard grandfather Sherm Poppen, it was about the death of Sherman Poppen and how he was known for his invention of the “Snurfer.” It tells the audience why he decides to create it, as well as what happens later to the snowboard to make it the way it is today. Moore had described how Sherm Poppen had done more than just invent the snowboard, he had also owned Lake Welding Supply Co. in Muskegon. Later Moore told them about how he was chosen for the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame.

The article was mostly describing how Poppen had been the inventor of the early snowboard. The story of him inventing the pre-snowboard goes like this, “On Christmas Day in 1965, Poppen attached together two skis with crossbars of wood, put a rope at the tip and created a way for his daughters to "surf" on the snow-covered dunes at their Lake Michigan home.” From this passage found from the article, it describes the way he brought two skis together and why he decided to do that. After a while, Jake Burton had redesigned Poppen’s idea and put the binding on the creation. The article does tell too much more about the invention of the snowboard, which is what is most interesting.

From this paper in the newspaper, I have come to the conclusion that there is a lot of innovations left for a snowboard. Since the binding had just been invented in 1977, I curious about what will happen next.

Any ideas on what types of snowboards might be next?

In the article “What are the Different Types of Snowboards,” Nate had explained how each snowboard is used for different styles of riding. First, the author describes beginner snowboards and how they are better for someone that is first starting. He transitioned well with the headline of what was going to be the next topic. Each category he tells starts with the bold headline, clearly telling the viewer what style is expected. Secondly, he had written about freestyle snowboards, which are used mostly in the terrain park. The more thickness there allows for more cushion when landing. As the article goes on the audience encounters 5 more categories which are; All-Mountain-Freestyle, All-Mountain, Aggressive-All-Mountain, Freeride, and Powder.

Nate described all these different types of snowboards, but this is just skimming the top of the water. Like he said in his article, “You could really say that every make and model of the snowboard is unique but it’s more useful to look at some broader categories so that you know what type of snowboard you want to search for.” So, for example, snowboards range from anywhere around $300 to $1500. If there isn’t time spent researching on the right board for you, then the money will be wasted on a sport that was just “worth a try.” When finding the right snowboard think about where you will like to ride on the hill if that’s in the terrain park or just free riding the hill. There are tons of variables to think about before buying a snowboard.

When viewing this article I noticed that I had never checked the style of my snowboard, so now I’m curious about what type of board I have been riding this whole time, also I wonder if it will help my skills to switchboards.

Have you ever skied or snowboarded before?
If so, what boards do you fancy the most?

The source that made me most interested was a video on YouTube called “4 Snowboarding Moves That Will Change Your Life” from the page, Snowboard Addiction. When going onto there page I found that Max Henault, which is an Olympic Coach, was the teacher in this snowboarding tutorial. He taught the audience how to complete numerous amounts of tricks that can evolve their snowboarding style. Each of them connected each other to complete a flowy move. First, he had us watch him do nose and tail presses, which essentially allowed the audience to become comfortable with their board. Second, he focused on Ollies and Nollies, which are ways of jumping on the board. Last Henault showed us how to complete spinning and shiftes; these were intended for learning switch. After all these moves, he brought it all together to create a flow and a more concrete way of snowboarding/ having fun.

Each move from this video is not for true beginners. “When experimenting use as few or as many of these moves as you can, there is no wrong way of doing them and there is an endless amount of tricks you can learn.” From this quote from Max Henault, the word I really want to look at is, “…there is no wrong way of doing them…” If anyone has snowboarded, there is obviously a ton of balance needed to stay up on the board for more than 20 feet at a time. So, my question to the people that do snowboard or ski, do you feel as if these tasks are more difficult than not? What I mean is when is it okay to start doing creative moves as he did effortlessly? For instance, if a beginner were to try that they wouldn’t even make the 20 feet anymore, they would be shooting for a big 5 feet.

Truthfully, I am excited to test out these new moves that Henault had shown me. Even though they seem difficult to a beginner because of the amount of balance needed to stay up for the tricks, it wouldn’t work. I think this will allow me to build past the level I am at now in snowboarding.

As I did research on how I can develop my skills in snowboarding, I realized that I know pretty much nothing about it. All I do when I go snowboarding, I didn’t think that snowboarding had as much to it as it does. First, I started out by looking up videos of trainers. This had showed me the path of how to control the board more, as well as ways to encourage the board to do certain flips and spins. After I watched the video, I was surprised on the article I found on how to improve the technique. The article described how I should know my board, work out more, as well as watch videos. Unfortunate for me I’m missing all three of those steps. Since the last article talked about how I should know my snowboard. I did research on what a snowboard is made of. Which has always made me curious ever since I went to Never Summer for a class field trip. I could get more sources by talking to other people that snowboard or going to the slopes and watch other people.

Even though all three of my stories interest me, I have decided that I am most curious about my snowboarding adventure. The story had started when I was 4 years old and progressed into telling the audience about how I went down the mountain, falling. In the end, I showed my curiousness about how I will test my skills in the future. If I ever wanted to find the answer on how I can raise my skills in snowboarding I would ask Google, “X-Games Snowboarding.” This will allow for it to be more subjects towards snowboarding X-Games, which in the long run will allow me to develop my skills.

Fredrick Kittler- He was a man back in the 1980s that was an influence on the new media approaches. He disagrees with the internet being an "extension of a man." He had also published a ton of books from 1977- 2013.

Joseph Weizenbaum- The International Society for Ethics and Information Technology (ISEIT) had made an award after him, The Weizenbaum. This award was given to the man that "made a significant contribution to the field of information and computer ethics, through his or her research, service, and vision." This was found on their website.

Alan Turning- Was well known for his mathematics. He had made machines for the German ciphers during World War II, the same machine that it talks about in the article. The Germans didn't know the capability during the war.

As I read Nicholas Carr's artical I had noticed that he uses a variety of sources. All from credible sources such as the people listed above. He also mentioned schools and books in his article. I believe he used this many sources to show the credibility of his article, for how complex and creative it is, he needs a way to keep the audience interested in his paper.

How you can help save the bees, one hive at a time

# data[].attributes.body
1. Purpose: In the TED talk, Noah Wilson had informed the audience about how bees are the main influence of the world's economic food cycle. He also was trying to persuade them to plant more plants that bees are attracted too, this can differ in different areas.
2. Audience: The composer was trying to reach out to anyone that wants to hear about his information because he believes it's crucial to keep bees in the environment.
3. Rhetorical Appeals: The speaker enticed the audience by telling them how dramatic it will be if we lose the bees, this showed some pathos. There was evidence of ethos and logos as well. The creditably from ethos was at the beginning of the speech when he told about them about him just getting his doctrine in honeybee immunology, this gave great structure to the rest of his speech. Logos was found when he talked about achieving the data points he needed.
4. Mode and Media: In the TED talk I had watched it had been all three of the modes; visual, audio, and text. I think he chose to speak in front of everyone because it is formal and it engages the audience. He also had put in some visual pictures, which had enticed the audience to follow along with what he is talking about. Lastly, he has the text of what he had spoken about to help the viewer on the internet follow along.
5. Design: In the TED talk, Noah Wilson had used images that were places and maps of where he had set up bee farms.
6. Source: Wilson had talked about his own experiences being a scientist. He referenced his time in the field researching how bees work.
7. Style: The speech was in the first person, telling deeply about his experiences. His concern about the bees was stressful for him. It's formally told with a rich vocabulary.
8. Elements of the Genre: When he was informing the audience about his research he started out with making the audience engaged with how bees work and how they are important. This gave everyone a problem to his solution. The solution later was to get bees honey from around the world and research what types of plant the bees need to survive in that certain area. This will also help the plants because of an ecosystem gets wiped out then the data from the bees can help figure out what plants need to be replanted. Problem to the solution.
9. Wonder: For me, I question what plants are needed for my area if needed to replenish? As well as, how are the bees doing now, that these implications have been set?
10. Apply: As a listener to a writer, I have learned that when I write it's easier to think of the purpose of my draft in parts. Then connect the parts later to be kind of in the same outline as this speech.

This article had taken place during a marathon bombing in Boston. By my view of the map, it looks like the runners that were falling behind were going to run right into the commotion. In Haider Warraich's paper, he described the ripples in the water to be kind of like "Jurassic Park." He found that he was afraid because it reminded him of his past in Pakistan as well as what people might have thought. Him being a different race walking out of a bombing. The writer was probably trying to entice the reader to think about the people around them and not judge someone by their race.

Smelling the roast of the onions sizzle with bell peppers turning that light shade of brown with the green casting an artistic background. The steak is flimsy, but with the perfect amount of tenderness. My mind goes crazy on how did they made this meal so perfect? The fajita that was handed to me from the waitress was still smoldering hot from the grill in front of me. My tongue had experienced the heat as well as the creative flavor the artist of a cook had made for me.

When I had got home from the meal, I had thought of what way can I make that meal my own. I couldn’t think of many meals that would fit together. Truly, desserts were on my mind. I found this recipe on Google, searched the wood cabinets to find that I had all the ingredients. I started off with my bright sky-blue bowl, add flour that seemed like it had been a mountain of dry ingredients. As I filled the bowl with the random food items, I would never eat by themselves, I realized that I didn’t grab anything to mix it with. So, I had sat in front of the drawer curious which utensil would work best for the task at hand. I had chosen the whisk, it seemed like it had the capability to mix in proficiently. After I finished stirring it at best to my ability, I had plopped the cookie dough onto the cookie sheet according to the instructions. Then set the tray into the blazing hot oven.

I waited, curious if I did all eight steps right that was written on Google. Was Googles recipe going to be correct, were the cookies going to taste good? That’s all I had hoped for in those 10 minutes the cold dough was in the oven. They had finished and THEY WORKED! Most excited and accomplished I had felt in a long time.

Riding the white snow down the slopes like it’s nothing, it was never that easy to balance on the snowboard. When I was 4 years old, I had started to ski with my dad and my brother. I had wanted to use a snowboard because my older brother was on one. Sadly, I was too young for the snowboard, all the staff said that it would “hurt me”. As an honest parent, my dad had listened to the instructor and I had to wait one extra year to be on a snowboard with my older brother.

Once I was able to ride a snowboard, my dad had gifted me a silky-smooth board with flames. As a 5-year-old that’s all I had ever wanted. My first day out was not what I had expected every 10 feet I had fallen to the ground. Whipping me to the packed snow made me think, why am I wanting to snowboard? The reason why was because I wanted to learn how it is done. As I stood back up from my millionth fall, I realized that all it takes is time. When everyone starts snowboarding, they experience loss of balance and tail bone hits on the snow all day. I did not know this task, so I had both a hurt butt and some wobbly legs that couldn’t stay up on the snowboard. By the end of the day, I was starting to get better. Still not able to stop correctly but able to make it farther than 10 feet without falling.

When I was back home from playing in the snow all day, my arms had been super sore from all the pushing myself up. After seasons had passed, I had started to get better and understand how to turn and stay balanced. Now, I’m still learning how to test my skills on the snow every time I’m on the mountain.

Waking up on December 25th, 2001, my brother and I ran downstairs to realize that Santa had dropped a few red gifts at the bottom of our forest smelling Christmas tree. As we sped to the floor, past the plate where the cookies used to be, we got curious about which gifts were specially wrapped for each of us. While we shook the small presents to hear the little sounds of bells ringing and pushed past the books which were already well known to our kid eyes. We had seen the biggest box of them all. Of course, it had to be mine, I was a proud six-year-old that was ready for anything.

My brother shoved me out of the way with most of his force, while asking our dad when we can open our gifts. It had been 15 minutes since we had woken up and our father was not ready for us to fight. All my brother and I wanted to know was what was in the big box. The “master box” was what we had called it. As breakfast was made, we got more curious about the contents of the box and who it belonged to. We had to finish breakfast before the presents could be ripped open by our tiny little hands.

Each bite I took felt like it was going to fill my stomach with one too many bricks. After surviving the worst part of Christmas morning, we were able to open the gifts. Our curiosity could be done with, we could be let free from the chains that hold us away from the presents. As both my brother and I spoke at the same time we asked who’s present is that. They had told us, “you guys are going to share.” That was the last thing we wanted to hear. Even though that was the case, we turned the wrapping paper into a million pieces finding a new GameCube in it. It was the best day of our childhood.

Active Reading: Choice, Happiness and Spaghetti Sauce

Section 1,2 and 3! The TED talk I chose was Choice, Happiness and Spaghetti Sauce by Malcolm Gladwell. I had activated my schema by printing out the text and numbering the paragraphs This had helped me know when Malcolm was changing his main points.  There are more than just labeling the paragraphs, Active Schema also happens when you highlight the text or put the author's power verbs on the side of the page to descript what they were talking about. For instance, in the story, he told us how Howard was always the guy to have breakthroughs, so companies would hire him to look for the best Pepsi or pickle. Instead, he figured out that the customers wanted new variations, not the perfect flavor. He also said that Howard would analyze a huge group of people for his tests. Later Howard found that he needed to analyze a bunch of small groups in different areas. Howard had been the breakthrough for extra chunk spaghetti sauce and new variations of mustard. Most importantly Howard had shown us that we are all different and that we can’t make something perfect for all of us because we are all different.

This TED talk is almost my everyday speech towards people, except a little differently. I let people know that everyone is different, and thats why there is never a right way of doing something. Everyone thinks differently

The question was what do I think it takes to create a good idea? There are a few parts to this question; wisdom, creativity, and your own twist. Each of those are needed for great ideas. Wisdom will allow you to know the product or information you will need. Creativity and giving it your own sense of feel are kinda entwined. Making something that isn't cookie cutter and non-generic will make the idea heard by more people. So I think being yourself and knowing the product gives for a great idea start.

Matt Cutts had delivered a challenge for people to try something new for 30 days, if it's finding a new transportation to work or reading a chapter a night of a book to help with reading skills. This TED talk taught me that anything can be achieved as long as you put your mind to it. Habits can be broken or adventures can be made. Matt, the speaker, for instance in the video had said that he had climbed Kilimanjaro. This achievement might take a few years but it is the type of goal everyone should set for themselves. As he said in the video, “the next 30 days will happen if you like it or not” this mean a ton. You can do anything in 30 days, if you don’t like the changes, change them back. Don’t be set back by your day to day lives, change what you like. Take the 30 day challenge.
