After reading from "Global Voices in English" by Rezwan about alot of things happening with his people i have come to an epifiny as you may say. I realized that this man is trying to get a point across and i wondered why he used blogging. Well, blogging makes it so everyone can see these things. I believe that this leads to how we also need to be using technology in school so we can get a hold of this information. This would help this mans dream come true as well as many others.

After reading from "Googley Advise" by bloggers about what we should be learning about in schools I think that we should be able to choose what classes we take and what we learn. This matters to me, because I am currently in school and learning about things that I honestly don't care at all about and I think most of them will never be used in my life time. This matters to the world, because kids all over the place have the basic same concern that I do. This concern is that we should be learning about things that are world related in the majority of jobs to better help us succeed in what we do. Its a idea that has bean rising all over the world and I believe that we need to address this fast because the world won't wait for us.

After whaching the video from "Weblogg-ed" video interviewing Will Richardson and talking about how he is trying to get attention to how technoligy is affecting the classrooms through blogging about it. This matters to me because i currently use technology in a High School classroom and it is a great recource to me which goes against his concerns. It matters to the world, because there are classrooms using the same technology as me internet wise for a main purpose from my point of view. My point of view is that we need to know what is going on around us and in the world so we can also give ideas to what we should be learning. This also goes along the lines of us needing to know what is going on around us. The simple fact about technology is that that we need to utilize this great recource as long as we are focused on using it in the right ways.

In "2020 vision" by Arapahoe High School employees, this video reminds not only students but teachers and the world all togethor about on image. This image is about how things are changing and debates on if teachers are teaching the right or wrong things to students and how much things are going to change by the year 2020. This matters to me because by 2020 ill be in this new world done with my high school education and trying to get a career started. This matters to the world, because i dont think we are teaching the right things for the new world ahead of us. Lastly, this matters to my education, because once again, if teachers aren't teaching me the right things for me to be ready for this world, then we might as well not be educated.

After reading from Napa Village Blog by "natavillage" and this was a major shock. We as americans not only have our right to be free, but we have one of the richest countries, with anything we want to do in reach but most of us dont ultimately reach our goals. These Napa Village people can't be as free, can't have what they want, and they live in poverty. Instead of America focusing on ourselfs i believe that we need to focus more on the people around us and getting them to where we are now. This would greater help us in reputation, but the real reason why we should help these people is for moral's and doing what is right.

In "Regor Redefined" by Tony Wagner, it talks about the recent job structure as well as economy but also the future jobs and how we need to be looking at things to be ready for them when it arrives. This matters to me because the future, is my future. It matters to education because it points out to teacher that maybe they are teaching us the wrong things and need to rethink what is happening to the world and what is going on around us.Lastly, it matters to society because we are the new age of people growing up and we are the ones who are going to change this new world, looking through different eyes and viewpoints on life.

In Mr.Fisch's blogs in general i realized, why is this man doing so many posts? At first, i thought he might be bored, entertained by posting, or just enjoys it. But then i saw it from another viewpoint, of him wanting to teach people about things going on and how they are affecting us. He's accomplishing this through whats called blogging. I think its brilliant to try and teach the world through the globally recognized thing called blogging.

In "Web 2.0 The machine is us/ing us" by Professor Michael Wesch, this video simply examines the way our internet is using us and how we could use it. Its looking at computers from another point of view. This video matters to me because i want to be able to know more about how computers are changing us and how the future is going to look with them. It matters to society because people need to realize things like this instead of just going along with everything people do blindfolded. Lastly, it matters to education because computers are the new age of learning wethor we like it or not, it is a new age of technology to soon be more capable than the human mind. Can this overtake us if it gets smarter?

         In Will Richardson’s Footprints in the Digital Age he talks about how the things that we write about on the internet could affect how people think about us or what the things we do will show how our future will end up. In the article it states that students need to post items on their blogs that will help them in the future and make them seem smart and influential. This will affect our education because we are posting things on the internet right now and we need to make sure that the things we post are correct and will help us make a good impression of ourselves to the people reading our blogs or postings. For example the little girl has a very good digital footprint because she was doing good things on the web with charity and was very influential. But other people make themselves seem like misanthropes because they post negative or mean things. The world needs to post smart things on the internet to make sure that people view them as smart good people. Having a good digital footprint will help everyone get far in life.
