My Reaction to the Blogging Project

Hello everyone, do you imagine? we are doing the last assignment on our blogs, it is really amazing. Actually, I liked this project because I learnt how to make my blog, to post on it and to improve my writing by looking at others' ways in writing. Moreover, the blog was good opportunity to see different reactions of my classmates and did a comment for them and see others' comments on my blog. However, I didn't like to write the short answer questions on the blog because it was very descriptive which is not related to the free writing on the blog. Finally, I strongly recommend giving marks to the blog project because if there were no marks, nobody would write the assignments and this way make me interested to look at the reactions of my classmates.

Ansewering Questions and My reaction on the Articles

Physical Interpersonal Relationships and Social Anxiety
Teenage online players are suffering from a number of serious social problems. The first problem is related to the time that means the players spend most of their time online rather than studying and doing other school activities. The second problem is a violence scenes that lead to a violent destructive behavior such as murder and suicide. Moreover, some players may have antisocial behavior which is tough by online games. For example, stealing virtual treasure owned by other players.

Gamer's brains have increased the activity of dopamine because it is responsible for attention and learning skills during gaming. Moreover, dopamine produces pleasure by reinforcing behavior. So dopamine is released when something requires focusing on specific things like games.

My reaction
Anything in our life has advantages and disadvantages like online games. This games have benefits but if people played with it over it would turn to addiction that lead to bad consequences. Moreover, I think parents have crucial role in supervising their children and help them choosing good game. Actually, this topic is very related to my research topic and I already talked about the problems of the Internet and online games is considered as a part of the Internet.However, one of this article explains to me the benefits of online games.

Research Paper and Answering Questions

Writing this research paper helps me in learning many skills. The first thing is paraphrasing which learnt me many vocabularies. Also, I learnt looking for articles and books through Concordia library and I learnt many forms of citation.. It is really good academic experience and I am satisfied about it. However, if I had chance to start over I would read more to write more interesting and useful information.

Research Paper and my Feeling

At the beginning of this course I chose to write about the social effect of the Internet.But, when I started collecting the information, I was confused. However, after that I decided what I want and started writing. Writing research paper in English is not easy task so I had headache many times during writing this paper. Now, I am very happy because I finished it after a big effort from me and enjoyed with the interesting information that was about the problems of the Internet. I hope you will enjoy with this information in my presentation.

Reflection on a Class Divided video

Hello every body
Today we watched an interesting video which showed us an experiment which was done by a teacher that wants to teach her students lesson about discrimination. In this experiment she divided students into two groups according to their eyes color and informed them that student with blue eyes are better and smarter than students who have brown eyes. Then she switched them in the next day. In the lase of experiment all student learnt that you shouldn't judge people according to their skin color but judge them when you know them and how much they are better inside.
Discrimination is present everywhere and whenever in different aspects and the worst one is the ethnic discrimination. Moreover, it make discriminated people feel angry, sad and less confident. Therefore, In Islamic religion all people are equal and it encourages people to avoid discrimination. So the degree in Islam depends on how much the person is pure and good inside.

Reflect on the mid term

In the last mid term, I watched to an interesting video which talked about the paradox of the population. Through this topic I learnt more about the problems of growth as well as a decreasing of the birth rate in some populations. I think, there are not too many things that make me optimistic, but when the video showed us growing the old generation in Japan because an advancing medicine and good education, I considered that a good news. Moreover, decreasing the birth rate in some countries is good to have a chance to make a balance with other countries that have this rate high. But, the bad news are the pollution and consumption of growing population.

Novel Project

Read, read and read that what I had to do at the beginning of this course. It was like a most difficult homework I have to finish. Therefore, I didn't enjoy when I started reading, especially in the first part of the novel because I didn't understand many details. However, when I started to understand more I was enjoyed by reading. Then we wrote a review for this novel which was much easier than reading. Actually, I liked this part because I wrote my opinion and what I learnt from the book. After that we prepared to presentation part. For me it was very interesting to see the reaction of readers about their book and get back ground information about other novels. Moreover, I learnt more from my and others' mistakes with this experience.
