reflection/video idea

The biggest success of my presentation was probably my website. The website helped to   visualize my ideas and support what I was trying to do. Basically, the website concisely displayed what I was trying to accomplish. I could have improved on my end product, but considering it was my first time screen printing anything I'd say it was fairly decent. I wanted to do more with my end product and have more to show, but I ran out of time and wasn't very motivated at the time either. On the school's end pretty much everything could have been improved. The clarity, organization, and specifics of senior project as a whole needs to be improved and everyone should be on the same page.

Honestly, I don't know what memory I have that could be turned into a video. Most of the people I hang out with do not go to RCHS, typically I'm only here for school.

Outline: Media/Timeline

Media: I'll need the internet, my website, a video, possibly a powerpoint, and a pamphlet/handout.

Timeline: My video is almost completed and only needs minor retouching, my website should be completed withing 2 weeks, and the phamphlet and handout should be done two to three days before my presentation.

Unlimited monies and stuffs

1. If I had unlimited money and resources then my project would be complete. Everyone qualified and able to go to college would be able to due to my finances. As for myself I'd probably buy all the things that people with unlimited money do and I would give back to the world.

2. With what I currently have I can attempt to set up a foundation and be able to get more people into college. Hopefully, more qualified students will be able to go to college with less financial struggle after the completion of my project.

capstone project conciseness

To lower tuition costs and make college more affordable for the middle and lower classes.

I can convey this concisely by presenting facts and my solutions in a few sentences.

My website could have several tabs each presenting facts, the problems with tuition costs, and how I propose to solve the problems.

SOPA fail

If SOPA is passed then would it not be possible for the government to control our media and create biased opinions throughout the country. The government would be able to censor websites and define what is "appropriate." While piracy is a problem, I feel that the goal of this bill is more for government power and being able to control our media. If SOPA is passed then our democratic country will become more authoritarian.

1.Opponents claim that it violates the First Amendment, is Internet censorship, will cripple the Internet, and will threaten whistle-blowing and other free speech actions
2. "The single biggest funder of circumvention tools has been and remains the U.S. government, precisely because of the role the tools play in online activism. It would be highly counter-productive for the U.S. government to both fund and outlaw the same set of tools."
3.Marvin Ammori has stated the bill might make The Tor Project illegal. Originally sponsored by the US Naval Research Laboratory, the Tor Project creates encryption technology used by dissidents in repressive regimes (that consequently outlaw it). Ammori says that the US Supreme Court case of Lamont v. Postmaster General 381 U.S. 301 (1965) makes it clear that Americans have the First Amendment right to read and listen to such foreign dissident free speech, even if those foreigners themselves lack an equivalent free speech right (for example under their constitution or through Optional Protocols under the United Nations International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights).
