This article is about online courses offer convenient learning. There is this guy name Randall Henry, he takes college classes to get college credits. He takes his classes on his own pace and he has to do his homework from school to so he does his classes at his own time. He is taking classes for Art and Design at Georgia's Savannah College. (thats cool)
Synchronous classes allow the instructor and students to log on at prearranged time and conduct class through chat rooms or streaming video.
Asynchronous classes allow students to log on anytime within an assigned time frame to turn in and receive assignments, take tests, or post to message boards. (This is pretty interesting)

This article is very interesting because many people can get college credits while there still in school, and they can make their own class time when they are available. E-learning can be for anybody. People can sign up if they have a computer access, and if they have internet. People through K-12 can sign up and people that go to college can sign up too.

Williams also said that he sees the internet as an endless possibility of making connections with anyone and everyone. I agree with that because your friends might leave somewhere else and thats the only thing that can make you closer to them, and you can chat to each other. You have to be very careful what you look up on the internet. Also be careful what you share with each other on the message board. This article is interesting you have to read it..

What’s New, Interview?

Tradition Interview

This article is about Interview’s that many people go through when they want a job. The traditional interview is most likely face-to-face and one-on-one. When you go to an interview you have to make eye contact, make questions clearly, and show your best showcase your best qualities. There’s this girl that did all of that when she was going to an interview, her name is Fanny. She was being herself and she was outgoing than she got the job just like that. She was also had a positive attitude toward the manager where she was going to be working with.

Technological Interview

Then we went to the museum everybody went in and we had to watch a 10 min. movie so we did the movie was about the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd world, it said a lot of things that i didn't even know. But i really don't believe in that kind of things because i am a Christian so ya.. Then there were two other movies that we watched. But i wanted to walk in the museum and check out the other interesting things there.
