Read THIS blog post by a teacher. I mean actually read it. Take it in. Think about it. And then, write about it. What do you think about it? What is the teacher trying to say? In your own words explain what "the main event" is.

This story is about a teacher explaining the school system and what teachers think. He states that the main point of school is not to learn all the material. He says he point is to get the best grades possible and face the adversity to get ready for the real world because school is not the hardest thing you will do in your life. You have to stay up and study and do your homework so your grade doesn't drop and you do well on tests, so you can get into a good college. Then, you can go to college and get a degree and you will have all the prior experience from middle school, high school, and college to help you get and keep a job. "The school system is not about learning and never will be." I thought this quote was interesting and that you were supposed to learn in school.

3 day weekend... how was it? Give me a good story or something funny that happened this weekend. Go.

This weekend was fun, went to the Varsity baseball game after practice on Friday. On Saturday, I had baseball practice in the morning and hit some dingers. On Sunday, I went to see Fast and furious 7 and it was a really good movie. Really touching and a great tribute to Paul Walker.

Do you agree or disagree with this statement. Elaborate on why you agree or disagree.

If images are on the internet they should be "free game".

I agree because it honestly does not seem like a big deal to just use someone's picture if they did not want to be seen/used they would have kept it.

Reflect on your resume website.
I wish I would have made the background color of my header a different color because it did not go with the rest of my website. I wish I would have known how to put pictures next to my box instead of under it. There were some really good websites with some cool fonts and styles and there were some that lacked complexity and information. Overall I thought I was about middle of the class. If I just learned how to do a couple of things and changed my color scheme it would be at the top of the class.

What's the coolest thing you've learned in Web Design so far? Why is it so cool and how can it help you in the future?
How to make a website and code images, also putting the style sheet together giving the website the character that it needs to look cool. The website with the style sheet makes the websites look like regular websites and look unique. It can help me in the future by making websites for my job or future classes.

Define 'User Experience'. What does it mean and how does it relate to web design? Explain yourself.

User Experience is the process of enhancing user satisfaction by improving the usability, ease of use, and pleasure provided in the interaction between the user and the product. Its relates to web design because almost everything we have done so far can be done/made quicker and easier. An example is instead of having to code all of the regular stuff that every website has just have the framework already done and just input the information.

What is a resume website? What do people put on resume websites. Spend about 5-10 minutes looking up resume websites and what they are used for. Explain what you find. Include an image of a resume website if possible. 

A resume website is basically a resume that is made into a website but, looks a lot better than just a normal resume on a boring sheet of paper. It shows everything that the person looking for a job is interested in and his skill sets. Also, there are many clickable tabs about the person and their history.
