Class Wiki
Having a class wiki is another tool that can be helpful for the classroom. It can be useful in many different ways. First off it allows students to see what assignments they have and their due dates. Also it has a class calendar that shows what is upcoming in the class and what is due. A class wiki can also show a blog role and it allows students to reach each other with blogs and comments. Having a class wiki is a useful and helpful tool that students and teachers can use to help better the class.

Using Google Drive in Class
Google drive is a very effective tool to use in class. It can be used for any type of class and most assignments. Google Drive allows multiple people to change and edit the same draft without being near each other. With the ability to insert comments and gramatical changes, drive also allows people to view and edit your assignment without making it permanent. Google drive makes it easier and more convienent for groups to do work at the same time. A group for a class can edit the assignment at the same time as other members of the group, and they can all see the changes as they occur. Google drive is a very useful and powerful tool that can help make homework easier.

Simpsons marathon
Weither you watch the show or not, you most likely heard of The Simpsons. We'll for all you fans out there, Fxx has been having a every Simpsons ever marathon. That's over 500 episodes, or 12 DAYS of nonstop Simpsons. The show has been around for almost 25 years. That means it's older than me and a lot of other things. It's pretty amazing that they are still coming out with new episodes and have been for 25 years. At the rate the are going the next Simpsons marathon will be a month long. That's insane a whole month of a show, I recommend calling it simptember.

Arranging Your Doc
It is important when writing a document to keep it organized and clean. Organization is the order you put your information in and how it wotrks together. You should first put in your abstract and then continue with your introduction and follow with your body and conclusion. When putting in sources and citations, make sure to put it in the right order with your writing and words. Organization is one of the most important parts of writing a paper or document, and can really affect the outcome of your grade.

Concluding a Document
It is imprtant that whenever you are writing a paper or assignment, to have a strong conclusion or closing statement.In the closing paragraph you should restate what your paper said (in different words) and you should also close of the topic and leave no questions unanswered. Do not go easy on writing just because it is the last paragraph and end of the paper. Your conclusion should be just as strong as your abstract and introduction. The conclusion is just as important as the rest of the paper.

Doc 3 topic part 2
Here we go again, another blog topic about the same subject. The assignment that I chose to do for doc 3 is hypertension. Hypertension is high blood pressure which means your heart rate is above 100–140mmHg. High blood pressure is said to be present if it is often at or above 140/90 mmHg. High blood pressure is caused by increased smoking, eating unhealthy, and not excersizing amongst other things. High blood pressure is very common in america, this has to do with the unhealthy eating habits that people have. There is no immediate cure for hypertension, but living healthy and smart can help prevent the disease.

Doc 3 topic
In doc 3 we had to choose an assignment from another class to write about, the topic I chose was hypertension. For those who donor know, hypertension is high blood pressure. Hypertension is one of the most occurring diseases here in the United States. This may be because of our high stressed environments,or people's unhealthy eating and excercise habits. There is no immediate cure for hypertension, but there are steps to preventing it. Not smoking, eating healthy and exercising regularly are easy ways to prevent hypertension. Taking these basic steps of living a healthy and stress free life are some ways of fighting and hopefully stopping hypertension.
