Week- 4 :EOC, Jeopardy Death Race

This game was fun and challenging at the same time. I found playing a game on learning to be more efficient and an overall good experience , the material was dry and non exciting to read, however this game made the process of learning dry and non fun material event full. We played a lot of different games from the students that made the game, so we covered a lot of different material that no one person could cover in a week’s time. Even if we got the answer wrong we could still see the right answer and if you got the question wrong you played more attention to the answers as the ones we got right. I learned I learned how to apply for a patent. I learned what divisional applications is. Also Interferences. I came into tonight’s class not knowing what to expect<, I thought this class was going feel like a long time, but with this jeopardy game the time flew by faster than I thought I would have. I think I learned a lot about patents , I feel that I will do well on the midterm after studying in this manner. I wish learning definitions was always this fun at school bud sadly it isn’t so. Not all of the educations teachers will go above and beyond epically in the state of Nevada, which is getting more evident every day. It’s sad to think that most school teachers don’t care if their students are learning anything at all, but looks like we have a few bad apples on the branch. Maybe it is because teachers don’t care or maybe it’s because the teachers don’t get paid enough to educate our children. I wish we had more teachers that cared. We need teachers that care.

Week 3 EOC: Jeopardy-Challenges and Oppertunity

The most challenging about making a jeopardy game on patent definitions is how to categorize the questions and answers, so It makes sense to the contestant that Is playing the game. The other challenging part of this assignment Is rewording the definition so the key words in the answer doesn’t come up in the question. Though this assignment is challenging I ‘am confident that this is a good learning tool to remember these words and definitions.

Week 1 EOC: My Voice

I grew up in a small town in the middle of Las Angeles and San Diego. When I was doing construction I was not happy at my job, every day was hard to go to a job where I hated every minute of it. Since I started doing film, my work days are longer but making films is so fun to me it isn’t like work at all, I can spend 12 hours straight editing a video project and at the end of the day I will be smiling. I get a great satisfaction after I finish my projects, and I have not experienced that in any of the jobs I’ve held in the past. Film is definitely my passion. I like to be a cinematographer, I like getting my shots the way I see them in my mind and I like to edit them. I want to be on a project from production to post production. Coming to Vegas was the best move I ever made. If I didn’t move to Vegas I would be working two dead end jobs to live in California. I know about BMX riding and the other action sports. The transition won’t be a stretch for me. I ‘am confident that I can make good if not great action sports films. Making films doesn’t feel like work to me, yes it’s a long process. I like using the Sony HDV video camera. I like using Final Cut Pro to edit my films.

Week-2-EOC-What do I think about lawyers

What do I think about lawyers?   I think lawyers go for the smart cases, meaning they pick and choose which case they will accept based on how good they have a good chance of winning the case. I think lawyers can’t afford to be companionate with the cases they chose to defend. Lawyers are putting food on the table the same as the rest of the human population, meaning they are doing their job. I had an experience of getting sued in a car accident I was apart of.  I was at fault for the accident and I did not shy away from that fact, the person I hit could of called my car insurance company and have them pay for the damage that person suffered, which was all fine with me since I hit her to avoid another more terrible car accident on the highway. The person I hit didn’t do that and they proceeded to sue my parent’s car insurance and my friend’s mom’s car insurance because the truck was in her name. For about a year I had to meet with my friend’s mom car insurance lawyer and they got a statement from me saying what happened in my words. I gave a statement and that was the last time I saw that lawyer. My lawyer never called me or never called me into a meeting with him. He kept me posted every step of the way, I got lots of legal paper, and that was our lawyer client relationship. My friend’s mom’s insurance lost their case and had to pay $2,000. My lawyer won my case and my parents insurance had to pay nothing. After that my parent’s insurance company dropped our whole family from the insurance. We had to get new insurance. I’m happy that I didn’t have to pay for anything but I’m not happy about making my family suffer for a mistake of mine. I think lawyer’s do their job well but no matter what the verdict is your life will change forever.
