Essay reflection

This assignment seemed at first as if It was going to be extremely to technological for me. In the long run there were some very easy things that need to be learned to put together the whole project. The essay was extremely easy to tie together on Dreamweaver I feel that after choosing this article I maybe could have chose a better one because almost everyone in the class is doing this same article except for a very few others. This makes me feel as if I wanted to say something and everyone else in the class disagreed it maybe majority rules thing from the teachers’ basis which makes it kind of hard to not be able to pick your own essay. The good part though was I did not have to do my own research and find my own article. These articles were pre picked for a reason. They include several different key features such as a controversial point and a selling point in which they want you to agree and some include a special graphics to grab the attention of the reader. Colors and text size and font tend to do the same effect as graphic pull. The essay I wrote mostly agreed with the blog writer Fred Gooltz. He made several good points about how today we are more then likely to be addicted to the technology now made available. These essays may kind of help because they are pre-picked and they are student friendly to make it as simple as possible to evaluate this time. Also to do more work with these essays later down the road. Overall I like the assignment a lot it is better then writing large papers all the time. Plus I enjoy learning how to utilize new technology the school has to offer me.
