Post 6: Cloud Tweaks

Cloud Tweaks  is blog focused on the cloud community in Information Technology. This blog has almost every bit of information any I.T student going into networking could need. They have tech resources, tech training, cloud comics, events, and so much more. I've also noticed that on every different tab I clicked on, the sidebar would give me a list of different resources per topic. From this blog I hope to improve my knowledge on cloud computing and come to a better understanding on whether or not I would even want to venture further into networking or change my major. If not, this blog well get me more familiarized with the subject to the point that I could be able to hold conversation about cloud computing with someone in the I.T department and know what i'm talking about. Who knows, maybe it'll even get me ahead in my classes by even just a little bit.

Post 2: L. Lennie Irvin's 7 Myths of Academic Writing: Is It The Truth?

Are these myths bias or are they true? In Irvin's essay, "What Is “Academic” Writing?" he outlined and debunked 7 myths that most high school and college students were made to believe as they evolved as writers. The Myths Are: Myth #1: The “Paint by Numbers” myth  Myth #2: Writers only start writing when they have everything figured out  Myth #3: Perfect first drafts  Myth #4: Some got it; I don’t—the genius fallacy Myth #5: Good grammar is good writing Myth #6: The Five Paragraph Essay Myth #7: Never use “I”  Most of these myth's I have personally never heard of but I just can't agree with myth #1. The myth is described as "writers believe they must perform certain steps in a particular order to write “correctly.” Rather than being a lock-step linear process,-". Maybe it's just me being stubborn but I've always been taught to follow an evidence triangle or some type of layout when I wrote essays and it made it a little more easier an...

Post 11: Understanding Math

Imagine yourself sitting down in your math class getting ready for this big test. You read all of your formulas and looked over the problems that you did in class. You get your test and then BOOM you don't remember anything. How can you prevent this? You have to actually practice. According to Paul Dawkins, a math professor at Lamar University, " You cannot learn mathematics by just going to class and watching the instructor lecture and work problems.  In order to learn mathematics you must be actively involved in the learning process.  You’ve got to attend class and pay attention while in class.  You’ve got to take a good set of notes.  You’ve got to work homework problems, even if the instructor doesn’t assign any.  You’ve got to study on a regular schedule, not just the night before exams.  In other words you need to be involved in the learning process."(Dawkins) This is a true statement since I've had the opportunity to test it myself on my last math ...

Post 12: Confusion with MLA Style

MLA Style is one of the most commonly used writing and citing method among scholars. It's easy enough to use when it comes to formatting the paper but I always have trouble with using the MLA citation. Since it is changed every few years I often get the versions of the citations mixed up and I write it all out of order. For example when I was doing the MLA citations for my essay instead of putting the authors/publishers first I put them at the end instead and so now it's wrong.
