Popular science today seems to amuse people of different perspectives. It has become known on TV, in books and films. Writer Edward Rothstein of the New York Times believes that today, science is worn into popular entertainment which I agree it is. There are so many things that deal with scientific problematical issues that scare people. Honestly it is awesome but it really doesn’t go into that scientific field of what science in reality is. It is fine to gain knowledge of innovative things, especially when there are movies like of mass destruction or the man kind/world coming to an end but where the theories are. For example District 9, a science fiction movie of aliens which are inspired by scientific possibility. It is believed that the government is hiding secret chemical that scientist have been trying to use to gain control and power or an experiment gone wrong. Science gives me a sense of initiative roles. Wikus van de Merwe, is a manager at the MNU Department of Alien Affairs....

I am more of humanities person but I do have the science person in me. My major is psychology which is the study of the mind. It focuses on observation. While studying this major I ask What makes a person behave a certain way? Why are they so threatening? Why do they believe in such things? etc. It is also a combination of establishment as a separate science from physiology and philosophy. It is relevant to the assistance of nature vs. nurture. I believe that many people do believe in science now more than ever. It is not about one subject but many piled into an idea/ theory. Today psychologist utilize systematic methodologies to learn and depict conclusions about human thought and behavior.

My professor wanted students to create a blog where we can communicate with one another. Today I am writing once again to get a good grade for my class. Honestly it is nice to have your own blog post where one can communicate with others even though theres facebook, twitter, myspace etc... But for school related this is perfect. Well today i am back and ready to meet new classmates. Also here to shiw my empathy for others. Hope you enjoy getting to know me!:-)

With the e-portfolio it makes me feel that I have something more than a resume. Here people can view my educational goals and my class work. They can see how I have improved my writing and see that I have tried to better my probability at getting my employment or an internship. I believe my critical thinking has improved a bit since making my own e-portfolio because it is personal without being private. It’s not a social site but a significant portfolio that helps me to figure what I want, what I need and what I may have and get? It is about putting myself in better positions then I would if I were going to the place knowing that they know about me. Yes it is digital, but it is better than me going to a place and becoming nervous. If I get an interview then this helps me know what I necessitate for a profession. But I also understand why it is important. It helps others understand who you are and what you are about? It gives employers an idea and they can find if you are what th...

I met with people from different nationalities they were very diverse. During the few weeks that we had in the CEP121 course we got to learn about each and every student at least a bit. Like their name, major, and why they were so interested in being what they wanted to do. Many were already established into a career path and a few were still unsure but like everyone else we wanted to be successful and have good job opportunities. From this course, I was able to understand more about my career and I found myself doing some research of my own. I found that some of the activities that we did were not just to prepare us for the internship but to be aware that it is not as simple as it looks. It was to practice/organize ourselves for the future. Some activities that we did in class were helpful like the lingering thoughts because we don’t really have time to put our thoughts into paper because some work and others go to school. Some have families and work with school and I feel that, ...

When we worked in groups during the class, we got to talk about our lingering thoughts. We spoke of work and wanting to have a job after we each graduate. We knew that this was making us stress over employment and having benefits but then we started giving each other thoughts and advice and made each other felt a bit more at ease because though we have done research we still need to something to think about. After a few minutes we were started talking about what we were going to do for our finale on the last day of this CEP121 course. The professor had told us that he had in his previous class, students who did a TV segment like the love connection. We as a group were thinking, what could we do that could make every one laugh and enjoy to what we did? We were coming up with so many different ideas that they seemed far fetched and too difficult because we had too little time.
