1.) This website I used was Sound Cloud and it uses “social sound” meaning that it is easy to share and communicate with others.
2.) Yes, I thought that Sound Cloud was very easy to use! All I had to do was upload a previously loaded file and share or copy the embed code. The only thing I didn’t like was that you couldn’t record directly from the Sound Cloud website. Other than that, I liked Sound Cloud a lot!
3.) I wouldn’t recommend that Mrs. Fowler use this website in the future. The reason I think this is because the websites we already used were perfectly fine and taught me what I need to know, I feel. I think using other website will just make learning about Podcasts repetitive.

Technology article summary

Autism-"a disorder that affects development of social interaction and communication," affects many children today. Because these children have trouble depicting emotions and social behaviors of humans, scientists have created a robot to help called Kaspar. Surprisingly, Kaspar is helping the autistic children very much. Because the robot has only a few emotions, can talk, and has human like skin the children involved with Kaspar are learning basic communication skills that many of them had non of before the study.

One example is a girl named Eden who suffers from autism. Before she started working with Kaspar, Eden wouldn't hug her family or friends and had trouble depicting emotions of others. Now, because of Kaspar, Eden is openly hugging people, often starting the hug herself. Also, she is better at realizing the emotions of others, helping her social behaviors.

If robots like Kaspar become better engineered, and cheaper, they could help with children all over the world with a hand full of diseases! The advancements made with these autistic children and robots could lead to many more!

Zoo Review

The Philadelphia Zoo, located in Philadelphia's Fairmount Park has a very well organized web site, with great pictures and lots of information. The website was very helpful in my research project. The web site is a very helpful tool if you are doing a research project or just looking for information on an amazing zoo!

The Philadelphia Zoo is located at the corner of Girard Avenue and 34th street in Philadelphia's Fairmount park. The Zoo's website has very good directions no matter where you are coming from with detailed maps and simple directions.

I chose to research the Philadelphia Zoo because it is a zoo I have never been to, but have always thought sounded interesting. After briefly looking at the website an finding out some basic information, I knew that they had a very interesting history, with lots of different kinds of animals, including some exotic and endangered animals. In the end, the Philadelphia Zoo was a great choice for my research project.

The Philadelphia Zoo's website was very helpful in collecting my research. This was because the website is very well organized with lots of pictures to help direct you in your search. When using the website, everything I looked for was right where I thought it would be! This helped me in my research tremendously!

The Philadelphia Zoo's website does include pictures that you could use in a presentation. In fact, I did use many of the pictures. The pictures are very professionally done, with great shots of some of the really awesome animals that the Philadelphia Zoo has to show people.

The Philadelphia Zoo, sadly, doesn't have a web cam. So, I could not try it out.

The best part of the Philadelphia Zoo's website is the very detailed explanations of the animals that they have at he Philadelphia Zoo. These explanations tell everything from the amount of the specific animal they have, to the animals diet and habitat. The writers make these explanations very interesting and easy to read. Researching the animals was very easy and fun actually!

Honestly, I don't think the Philadelphia Zoo's website needs any changes. Overall, it is an amazing website with easy accessibility, awesome organization, great pictures and amazing information!Philadelphia Zoo

In 10 years...

In ten years I honestly have no clue what I'll be doing. But, this what sounds pretty good to me.

In ten years I'd like to be graduated from college with a masters in nursing, and an associates degree in buisness managment. With my degrees I'd like to have a good paying, steady job that I could support my wife and however many kids she wants. I'd like to live somewhere a little warmer than Michigan, but no too warm, but I have a feeling I'll live right here, in Bedford Michigan.

I would like to have an exotic animal collection! A pygmy marmoset (monkey)and a pirahnna would be pretty sweet for some starters. But, I have a feeling, my wife wouldn't like that, so I probably won't have that.
