Communication in 20 years

Communication has changed a lot in past 20 years. It has had a drastic change over the years. Technology has improved, and some advantages have formed as well as disadvantages. The advantages of communication which is mainly surrounded by technology are a faster way to receive messages, convenient ways, it allows people to express themselves in different ways, you can communicate through text, im, internet, email, facebook, etc. The disadvantages are people are lacking communication skills now because of the technology. Everyone has gotten so use to texting and other forms of communication that talking on the phone and in person has become harder for some people. How people communicate has an effect on how they'll survive in the real world. If someone has bad communication skills, its not going to be a good thing when it comes time for job interviews, running a business and more. Those that have good communication skills on the other had get along with almost anybody, are social, have an advance when it comes to job interviews and businesses and can be a people person.

Methods for Teachers

Some techniques or methods that could help teachers do their job more effectively are making the class more interesting by doing activites they know students will like. They could also give the students a chance to express themselves or talk about things if they have problems or anything. Teachers should have control over the class and not be too nice because the students will eventually turn lazy and knowing the teacher will not discipline them or hold them accountable for themselves and their actions. Fun activities in class will keep the students interested in what they're learning and what needs to be taught. From experience students tend to learn better playing games as study guides. When a lesson is taught sometimes the teacher could be boring which makes the students less interested and sleepy. Sometimes teachers reward students on participation or ask questions after a lecture which I think is a good method. Watching movies and having questions to answer about the movie is also a good thing. The most effective in my opinion would have the games and activites, such as group projects, debates, presentations, jeopardy, etc.

Convenience

When something is inconvenient to someone is causes problems and delays in some things. When people are considerate of another persons schedule they'll say something like "what ever is convenient for you". In my opinion, convenience changes people lives in a positive way. It makes things way easier and more accessible. It allows you to take your time with what ever your doing and you shouldnt get frustrated. Making things convenient for yourself and others makes all the difference. Its life changing because you stay more organized and less stressed about a lot. Stress can cause serious problems so to be able to avoid this with convenience is a great thing. I also think people are in better moods when things are convenient for them and they get a sense of relief knowing that they can take their time and relax. When you rush things tend to mess up, you lose things, dont get the job done right and your under a lot of pressure. Convenience on both sides makes everyone calm and things are less stressful and overwhelming. This a life changing thing, relieving stress and anxiety.

Fame and Fortune

A person achieves fame and fortune from different things ; such as being in the music or movie business, an actor, actress, singer, rapper, tv personality, host. People get fame and fortune from publicity, being on tv, having a successful business/career, playing professional sports, fashion designers, being married to a certain person, even culinary arts, etc. This could change a persons life in a negative or positive way. It could change it in a negative way by making the person stuck up, turn against their family, become spoiled, expect too much from people, turn mean or simply just change the person into someone totally different overall. The positive effects could be the person helping out more people than just themselves, being happier and being good entertainment to the world. Fame and fortune doesnt come to everyone so easy. Some people just get the fortune without the fame because of marrying, being in a relationship with or being close to a person with fame and fortune.

Environmental Problem

The environment is something that should be very important to all of us. We have to live in it and we should take care if it. Not only is the pollution in the air an environmental problem but the loitering is also. Loitering not only makes the environment look bad, but it also affects the animals, sea creatures and makes it okay for everybody else to loiter. Since we live in the environment, I think it should be treated like our home regardless if we live outside or not, everyone lives in the environment. When visitors, tourist or anyone come to a certain area in the environment we should want them to remember that area as being clean. Animals often mistake trash for food and get sick after eating it. When it rains, trash gets into the gutter which leads to the ocean. Once the trash reaches the ocean fish and other sea creatures mistake it for food and probably end up dying. Some fish even get tangled in the plastic ida rings and it cuts them in half, which is a painful death of course. If I was a sea creature I would never want to get put in a situation like that. The animals and sea creatures don't deserve to be hurt like that. Loitering also makes it okay for everyone else to do it, which increases the population of trash on the streets. I think we should treat the environment with more respect and as if it were our own home, which it is. Without the environment, we wouldn't be able to live.

The Mersa Bug

A public health concern that I believe is serious enough to warrant immediate attention is the Mersa bug. This bug is mostly found in hospitals and when it bites and gets a hold of human flesh it makes people sick and sometimes even be severe enough to kill someone. This is a serious concern because a lot of people go to the hospitals to get better or treated for a sickness, this bug only makes problems worse. It also effects the people that enter the hospital and work there. This bug bite could be contagious and eventually leadto an epidemic of sick people. I believe this requires immediate attention and if possible, extinction of this insect. Another public health concern that requires attention is the flu. People are getting sick everyday and germs are always spreading. I think people should wash their hands more frequently and use hand sanitizer. They should also take better care of their bodies inside and out.

Teenage Smoking

Teenage smoking is a big problem in our society today. Teenage smoking comes from different things such as family problems, stress, to fit in, and the main cause, peer pressure. Peer pressure influences people to do alot of different things. Unfortunately, drugs are an easy thing to obtain and teenagers have easy access to them through themselves or other people. Teenagers turn to smoking because they think smokeing will relieve stress and /or make them feel calm. They could be having problems, problems at school or problems in a relationship and turn to smoking as a relaxer. Other teenagers smoke to make themselves look cool or fit in, while others are just pressured by their friends to do it. Some teenagers even do it because they like the feeling of being high. I think the main cause is peer pressure because after they see all their friends doing it they're going to want to do it too. "Monkey see, monkey do." The causes resulting from teenage smoking include, early addiction, killing off brain cells and worsening the lungs. Eraly addiction could go on into adulthood and effect the life of that person, depending on the addiction level and if its severe or not.

Why math is required

The reason why math is a required subject is very simple, you need it in life period. You have to know how to count to work with money, you need to know how to calculate payments and money you spend receive to make sure you do not get cheated and you get the amount you deserve. People that work for In Home Supportive Services for example have time sheets to calculate their own hours and if they do not put the right times they will not get paid on time. I for one need math for my potential career. I want to be a neonatologist, which is a newborn baby doctor. I need a lot of math and science to become this. Math is everywhere. I may not understand what we need with some subjects and even thought I do not like math it is something we all need in life. Geometry is needed for architecture, construction and engneering. Statistics is use for some careers such as sports journalist, scientist and more. You really need math in general to go into any career ; even working in a fast food resturant, grocery store or a place that is not as professional as others math is still reuqired and something very important to understand if not be skilled at.

Choosing Foods

Choosing foods to eat could be a hard thing or an easy thing. Some people choose certain foods because of a diet they are on and some people choose foods because of the taste. Others choose according to what their doctors say to eat, while another group of people choose because of sympathy and belief. Junk food, unhealthy food, fast food, these are the worst foods to choose because of the nutritional value. They cause health problems and a weak immune system. Knowing this to be true, the people that do turn to these foods eat it because of the great taste and sometimes being addicted it. Those foods are a hard thing to get rid of. Many people who are diabetic or get diagnosed with high blood pressure or high cholesterol get these things from eating so unhealthy. People who practice eating healthy foods on the other hand, are more concerned about there body and life unlike people who eat junk all the time. They also have less health problems than the average person and dont get sick as much or sometimes not at all. Some people choose the foods they eat according to the diet they are on, whether they are trying to lose or gain weight, and in some cases its the doctors orders. The people who choose their foods because of sympathy and their personal beliefs are considered vegetarians, that is if they don't eat meat because they do not believe animals should be killed and used for food by humans. It is very important to choose your foods wisely but of course our society today has more unhealthy eaters rather than people who watch what they eat.

The purpose of the internet

The internet and wide range of purposes. The internet is used for networking, businesses, cooperations, school, homework, college, jobs, information, bad use such as pornography and violence, for keeping in touch with family, news, directions, any question in the world, maps, purchasing things, shopping, learning, games, blogging, music, movies, videos, chatting, promoting, advertisements, creating and designing and more. Businesses use the internet for promotions, adverstisements, now becoming more frequent with making job applications available online and for shopping depending on the type of business. Schools use the internet for homework assignments, posting upcoming and due assignments, and most commonly having the students use the internet for typing essays, doing projects, or researching a certain topic or area of study. College's make their admission applications available online as well as virtual tours of campuses and all the imformation you need to know about life and educational and requirements on that specific campus. The internet has also been used for bad things such as pornography and older men preying on young girls. Identity theft has also been as issue as well as people starting to lack communication skills. Emails are popular thing on the internet, which help people keep in touch with families, chat with friends, and send and receive any information. You can look up and research any question you have in the world, get directions traveling anywhere, maps are also available. You can research anything which helps people learn more. Anyone can play games with other people and by themselves. You can listen to music, upload vdeos, watch movies. When you really think about it the internet does a lot more than we think, and it has more advantages than disadvantages.

Change in Plans

Some people do not like change. For example I do not want to leave California, however I am a very spontaneous person when it comes to certain things. A change in plans is sometimes necessary, like in families. At times a family has to move because of a new job one of the parents got and its more money. If a certain thing is an inconvience to someone they have change the plans to make the situation meet there needs. On some occasions a change in plans is more like a life or death situation. When there are eyewitnesses to a crime and the suspect makes criminal threats to kill or harm the person, you can go into a witness protection program or move away. There could also be a time when your planning on doing something for school, church, a person or anything, then you get a phone call with something very important that makes you have to leave. In the case who ever you were helping or what ever you were helping out in has to change everything because of your absense. I have ran into a situation where I had to make a big change in plans with my life. Some changes are necessary and very crucil and important. Then you have the changes that dont have to be made but will make a situation or someone's life much better than it would be without that change being made.

Ideal Vacation

My ideal vacation is not just a weekend or a couple of days, I would have to be staying away for about a week at least. It would be over the summer. I wake up early on a hot summer morning with my bestfriend, my suitcase is packed and we're ready to go. The airports are usually crowded with long lines to even get through the gate but no not today. Today we get in with no problem, the plane ride is smooth and we arrive early. We get to the Bahamas and take a limo to our hotel, there's a spa, great tasting food, good customer service. The light from the heated pool and jacuzzi fill the area and the view is amazing. The next day we get on a boat and go site seeing. There's reasonable prices for shopping and not a care in the world. We would probably stay there for a couple days then move on to another place, possibly Italy or Rome, I have always wanted to go to one of these places just to eat the good food, shop and site see. Next I would like to go to New York for the shopping of course and the nice hotels like I see on television. There are many more stops I would like to make but the last one I'm going to mention is the Carnival boat I've seen the commercial for. It just looks so fun and relaxing, the perfect vacation. Being away from California for a little while is a good feeling, no worries, no stress, and if someone did come to you with a problem, you could not do anything about it because you are so far away.

Obesity

Obesity comes from a variety of reasons. It could be depression, an obsession with food, problems at home, problems at school, or problems in a marriage. Depressed people sometimes lose weight instead of gaining it, from not eating due to the fact that they do not have an appetite or they are just too sad to eat anything with so much on their mind. Depressed people that turn to food on the other hand, will gain weight and find food as a comfort zone. They believe they can somehow eat there problems away or food is their company, especially if they are lonely and depressed. The obsession some people have with food doesnt even have to come from depression or anger or anything to that affect. This kind of eating disorder comes from people who's stomach can hold all that good food. They have so much room in there and food is just that good that it will stay on their mind and they always become hungry. Healthy food doesnt tend to make people obese this way you know that all the food they are comsuming is unhealthy, fatty, junk food. This becomes even more of a problem when these people accumulate health problems, which eventually leads to the death of this person. Obesity is a serious problem in our society and it is nothing to play with.
