Presley is well known as “The King of Rock and Roll.” Do you have a certain song or type of music that you listen to depending on your feelings? Explain why you listen to this song or type of music.

If I am feeling a certain way, then it changes what kind of music I listen to. I use music as a way to change my mood. For example, if I am sad or bored, then I generally listen to upbeat music in order to get myself hyped up. Things like this change what kind of music I listen to.]]> 2018-02-06 21:10:33 UTC https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228865936 isaiah_62174 https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228866844 January 9th is National Static Electricity Day. Using the Internet, learn five (5) facts about the cause of static electricity and summarize them in your own words.

A spark of static electricity can measure thousands of volts, but has very little current and only lasts for a short period of time. 

Lighting is a powerful and dangerous example of static electricity. 

Around 70% of people struck by lightning survive. 

Temperatures in a lightning bolt can hit 50,000 degrees F. 

Static electricity will build up faster on a dry non-humid day.]]> 2018-02-06 21:13:36 UTC https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228866844 isaiah_62174 https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228867900 Most inventions have pros and cons to them. Pick an invention that you believe has the most negative impact on our world. Why did you choose that invention? What do you think is wrong with it?

An invention that has had the most negative impact on the world would be cigarettes. I chose this invention because they are one of the leading causes of diseases, including cancer. They contain nicotine which is very addictive and terribly bad for you.]]> 2018-02-06 21:17:04 UTC https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228867900 isaiah_62174 https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228868753 Research an innovation at CES, explain in your padlet what it does and why you choose this innovation.

I chose the headphones created by Nura. These headphones adjust the way the sound plays in your ears to maximize quality and clarity. It plays a series of tones into your ears, then takes that information and adjusts the playback sound in a personalized way. i chose this because I happen to use headphones on a daily basis and I understand what it is like to not have quality sound and how annoying it is.]]> 2018-02-06 21:19:55 UTC https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228868753 isaiah_62174 https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228870913 What is modulo, and encryption? Please explain in your own words.

Two numbers are congruent modulo a given number if they give the same remainder when divided by that number. Encryption is the process of converting information or data into a code, especially to prevent unauthorized access.]]> 2018-02-06 21:26:28 UTC https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228870913 isaiah_62174 https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228871526 What is cyber-security?

Cyber security is the state of being protected against the criminal or unauthorized use of electronic data, or the measures taken to achieve this. This prevents people from stealing and using personal information or data for the wrong purposes and against the person's will. ]]> 2018-02-06 21:28:04 UTC https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228871526 isaiah_62174 https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228872140 What crime did you choose for your report?

I chose the cyber crime attack on Sony.]]> 2018-02-06 21:29:47 UTC https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228872140 isaiah_62174 https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228872846 Write in your padlet about your beliefs related to how technology helps or destroys the world.

I believe that technology can help and destroy the world. It can help technology as long as it is for the right purposes and within reasonable restraints. When technology goes too far, however, it becomes a serious threat to the world.]]> 2018-02-06 21:31:42 UTC https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228872846 isaiah_62174 https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228873457 What do you mean by technological innovation?

Technological innovations comprise new products and processes and significant technological changes of products and processes.]]> 2018-02-06 21:33:23 UTC https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228873457 isaiah_62174 https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228874072 Flying cars will probably be a part of your future. What types of laws do you think we’ll need for this new invention? What will the speed limit be for flying cars? How will take offs and landings be handled? 

Flying cars would need new laws such as restrictions on weight and passengers in the cars. Also, I feel as though you would need a new license altogether to operate these new vehicles. The speed limit would be somewhat similar to what they are now on the roads. Take-offs and landings would all have their own designated areas, similar to what a parking lot is now.]]> 2018-02-06 21:35:16 UTC https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228874072 isaiah_62174 https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228875343 Weigh the risks and rewards of space flight by explaining why you would or would not like to be a passenger on the Space Shuttle.

The only reward I could think of from going into space would be potentially be the slim chance you make a significant discovery for humanity. Other than that, it would take a lot of training and acclimation for your body and it would take a toll on you. Also, I think it would be absolutely terrifying.]]> 2018-02-06 21:39:00 UTC https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228875343 isaiah_62174 https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228875993 How can computers be used to benefit your learning?

Computers are a big part of our lives and will be for the foreseeable future. Being familiar with them and being able to use them to our advantage would be a great asset to our future]]> 2018-02-06 21:41:15 UTC https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228875993 isaiah_62174 https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228876488 Your choice

I am now done with this padlet. I don't have to do one in February, which is a relief. I hope I never have to do one of these again. Now we start to prepare for the AP test, which is better for me so that all of my classes don't start review at thee same time and overwhelm me.]]> 2018-02-06 21:42:59 UTC https://padlet.com/isaiah_62174/8vwt570ff50n/wish/228876488
