Surveys/Polls/Quizzes



In the array of vast quizzes and surveys that are available on the internet, I chose to take one from a website called Buzzfeed, which is notorious for having fun and interesting personality quizzes. They range from quizzes on your horoscopes and personality, to crazy quizzes such as "Which shoes predict what kind of tacos you like". The survey that I decided to take was “We Know Which Cast Member from ‘Jersey Shore’ You Are”. It was more of a fun quiz, and my friends and I being a fan of this show, it was very entertaining to take. It had funny options that related to the show, and it was not very long. It made references to the show such as their shore house and sayings that they had such as “G.T.L” which stands for gym, tan, laundry, which they assumed as a lifestyle. The results that I got was that I was the most similar to Jenny, also known as JWOWW. I also had a couple of my friends take it, and they all had a variety of the different cast members. The answers were not very varied, since there is only 9 possible people that can be a result, but I can see how the options available can create the answers of each character. My roommate also got the answer of JWOWW, but one of my friends got Sammy, and the other got Snooki. I think that this quiz, even though it was short, was a good and entertaining quiz to take. When I told my friends to take it, they found it fun and interesting which character they were the most like. It was not serious, but the reason it was so well liked was because it really tied aspects of the show in that people love and remember.

Human life has always striven towards innovation. The mind has created things that were at one time, unimaginable, and now society is at a place that is a whirlwind of technology and accessibility of whatever information a person wants, or needs, in an instant. This innovation of information has led the way to new ideals, values, and a way of life that the world has never seen. I often catch myself thinking about how technological advancements are affecting our society, but I am always conflicted to if it is helping or hurting it. It is connecting the entire world, increasing economies and trade, and giving people voices, who usually do not have one, that they use to share their opinions with anyone who will look or listen, and those are just some of the positives. On the contrary, even though there is an increase in digital connections, it is causing humans to become desensitized, decreasing face to face communication and compassion, and exposing our children to change whatever ...

1. From Pencils to Pixels by Dennis Baron- http://www.english.illinois.edu/-people-/faculty/debaron/essays/pencils.htm Baron started his article off with the idea that the computer is going to change literacy and writing, for better or for worse. This comes with going from the innovation of the typewriter, and then going all the way to the invention of the computer and the "world wide web".   Baron also admits his positivism and reliance on computers, and how it has changed his own writing for the past 15 years. " I readily admit my dependence on the new technology of writing. Once, called away to a meeting whose substance did not command my unalloyed attention, I began drafting on my conference pad a memo I needed to get out to my staff by lunchtime. I found that I had become so used to composing virtual prose at the keyboard I could no longer draft anything coherent directly onto a piece of paper. It wasn’t so much that I couldn’t think of the words, but the physic...

Unit 2 Reflection

I thoroughly enjoyed this unit as I tied in my piece with things that are very relative to today’s current events and society. The audience that I decided to try and reach were people who only see the shortcomings of all these technological advancements, and also do not look deeper into how some aspects of technology, like social media, are not just for people to post selfies and be shallow, but also be a medium for people to make change, create movements, and allow their voices and stories to be heard when large news corporations are not letting their stories be told. The specific rhetoric language I used was somewhat subtle, but I kept mentioning innovation and bringing my piece back into the perspective of the human race. “Human life has always strived towards innovation. The mind has created things that were at one time, unimaginable, and now society is at a place that is a whirlwind of technology and accessibility of whatever information a person wants, or needs, in an instant.
