Communicate Ideas: Select and apply appropriate resources, such as technology and media, to communicate and collaborate with a range of diverse individuals.

In Mr. Edgehouse’s class, we have learned many topics and how to find balance with having a class online. For the assignment I’m going to talk about, we could research any topic we would like to. I chose to research the effects of technology on kids in elementary school. Ironically, I chose this topic while taking the online version of this class but I feel like it’s an important topic, especially with technology growing so fast and being in almost every aspect of our lives. The ISSN goal “communicate Ideas” ties to my paper because it’s a way to talk about what I think on this topic while also showing the other side as well and it also kinda ties in with the ISSN goal of recognizing perspectives. 

If I were to do this paper over again I don’t think I would change much of anything. I feel like it was a well-balanced paper and I was able to get my ideas across in a clear respectful manner while being able to see all sides of the picture in how this affects us. I will say I do feel like I waited till the very last minute to submit it because I wanted it to be perfect, but I have realized that not everything is going to be perfect and when you look back on different events and assignments you will always find something that could have been changed.
