Bruins Habs Game 7

it is going to be a good game, I thought that game 6 could have been officiated better but theres nothing that we can do about it. Game 7, the habs better keep their head up because it is going to be a physical game that the bruins need to control. They need to score on their powerplay! 0 for 19 is unacceptable. LETS GO BOSTON!

What I Think About the IPad

My thoughts on the ipad are somewhat mixed right now. As of now, I am liking the ipad's a lot because they are a great source to rely on when it comes to schoolwork. My only thing is will there be something on the ipad for every student in this school where if they have an elective class (let's say cooking), will there be an app for that? Will there be an app for every single subject that we offer at Burlington High School? If we do ok, but other than that, I have had no problems with the ipad so far. The apps on the ipad do seem a lot better than textbooks and I see where the school is coming from where they say that us kids will be more focused when it comes to learning with the ipad because honestly, textbooks can be boring, most of them are. Those are my thoughts on the ipad.

iPad apps

The application for the iPad that I really liked was the flipboard application. It was a really useful application because it was recent information literally in the palm of my hands. If you liked the topic of information you would click it and it would take you too the homepage of the topic and if you didn't want to do that, you could just slid your finger across the screen and it would flip the page to a new sheet of information. The other app that I liked was the twitter application because it was an easier way to use twitter and easier is always a better way for me to do things. It was good because it seemed a lot better than using twitter through safari on the iPad. Those were apps that I liked and are apps that we should keep in mind for next year.

1:1 questions

here's my thing about the 1:1 program. We know that more often than not facebook is going to be used by the students. What are we going to do to kept on task with work, and not be on facebook? Is it easy to get distracted while using these devices?

Changing the Student Handbook

I am a senior so i know none of the few changes that may happen next year will apply to me. I think that if we had an open campus or if we had school at a later time, would make the school year a lot more enjoyable. These are just a few ideas that you guys could throw arround for next year when you are changing some of the rules in the yearbook. I'm sure I am not the only one who wants open campus next year either. You can probably ask a bunch of juniors now that will be seniors and 90 percent of them would probably say yes. I don't know, just an idea.
