1. What is this class about ?      I feel like this class is about finding new ways to learn and have fun with it at the same time. 2. What is the easiest part about this class?      The easiest part about this class is having the resources and knowledge to do the work and learn at the same time. 3. What is the hardest part of the class?      I personally feel the hardest part about this class is on me . Whether I decide to do the work, pay attention or even read today’s assignments. 4. What have you learned so far?      I feel I got lucky having this class because I’ve learned things in ways they haven’t been taught to me in my years at attending school. 5. What is your big Question?      My big question is why have homework?

The author of ‘Conscience of a hacker’ the mentor uses very formal diction. In this manifesto he tries to captivate us by using his literate words and putting them together to somehow succeeds to grab our attention and leave us wanting more. He also uses a repetitive strategy that somehow we can relate to it.

Just by reading what we just read I was captivated within the first paragraph. It left me thinking way more about the mentor and his feelings towards society. I feel like he’s right they is way much more worse crimes than hacking he didn’t kill anyone, he was just curious and wanted to see what the limits were. It left me wanting to read more and what he did, how jail was, and how’s he doing now and if his perspective still is the same.

 The way I was learned today was rights = entitlement. Yes we have freedom of speech and all these rights but we got to use them respectfully, smart, and respecting others. People just say ‘well, that’s my opinion’ but in reality it’s just a way to end an argument rather than getting to the point and finding answers.

The Socratic method is a discussion that helps you learn with others and continue the discussion that will soon give you answers.

I used repetition and looking at myself in the mirror repeating to my self and in a matter of a day or two I memorized it.

This is a new experience to me and I’m assuming to a lot of people. This is a safe place where your’e allowed to share your thoughts and reasonings. I hope this school year in this class turns out to be a memorable and just plain fun. Just by creating this blog it’s already memorable because it’s new to me.
