My First Blog Post by Steven Sabu

This will be my first ever blog post. It never really interested me because of the long posts and constant updates that one has to put in. Yeah, if you put enough time and effort into a blog, then you can reap what you sew, but that's only after you get a lot of people to look at your blog posts. I used to use Tumblr on a daily basis, but even that got boring after a little while. I don't know--- At the end of the day, blogging isn't really my style.

    Hi Steve,

    Instead of looking at blog and tumblr postings as a daily chore, how about you try just posting content that is important to you, at that moment or time, without over analyzing how many ppl view your posts or the pressure of posting content just for views or constant update. Make it a diary of your day-to-day experiences or perspectives on video gaming(as I can tell, this is an interest of yours from your term paper topic) and let it go from there. Just a thought.

So you can have the convenience of an online class but still, have the feeling of being in a classroom.

Advice

One piece of advice I would suggest by using new media is to utilize it in order to collaborate both students and faculty members. Blogs and wikis can be used to update everyone on events that are happening that day or week.  If blogs and wikis are set up where you have to interact with other people’s work, it’s a push to help you get to know each other. There are many times when people just go to class and literally don’t talk to anyone, but if you see the person that has been commenting on your work that could then start an in-person conversation. Another way to use new media is to make some kind of account for every club, team, and group on campus, whether it is an Instagram account, Facebook, Twitter, etc. This way the students and faculty can follow the pages and get updates about all the information these groups have to offer. But is not just for the people that attend the school it can also be useful to the people who are looking into attending or working there, it’s a useful to

Video Games: A New Experience

Video Games. We've all played some, one time or another. Ever since the early 70s when Atari first released Pong has a commercial video game, the gaming industry has always been one of the biggest industries technology has seen. Today, we see the progression of gaming technology with games accessible on your mobile device to stepping into your own virtual reality. In my research paper, I will be discussing the history of video gaming and how the evolution of modern gaming impacts society--either positively or negatively.
