Social Media Campaign

Prior to this Facebook page I was extremely excited to make this Facebook page, hoping that I would receive success. My goal was to bring awareness  and hopefully bring school spirit to the Dixie State University football program. I continued to post things that were going  around the football program hoping that i would  receive success which i didn't. Due to the little amount of likes that was received for my Facebook page.

I don't think i received that much attention or likes because didn't market and push it as hard as i could have. Also I had showed many group from different states, I should have specifically aimed for the people of Saint George. Which would bring in a lot more local exposure to the Facebook page and the Dixie State Football program.

This post above reached the most amount of people, more many of the others. I feel that it reached the most due to the fact it was the first post and it had the new identity of the Dixie State Trailblazers. I hoped that many other of my post would receive attention, because i continued to try to get out awareness about the football program. By showing many events that public would be very interested and hopefully attend.
In conclusion, I found this assignment very interesting and i was hoping i would hopefully bring tons of attention and school spirit to the football program. My goal  was to hopefully bring many other people from other states to be a part of our program and hopefully bring attention and excitement to the program. I should have just  focused on community in Saint George, before trying to get other people from other places to join the page.

Well informed _Religion 3.0

Religion 3.0

I found this week on religion very interesting. I find religion very interesting and like to learn about other religions and be open minded. I am christian, but i am not bias when it comes to other religions. I have been truly blessed and talking about religion was very beneficial to me and the class in my eyes. It was stated that many are abandoning religion for some reason and many family to touch on religion in their households. To me that is crazy seeing how i have been going to church since a little kid. It was never forced on me , i choose to because i wanted to learn about my creator and understand why i am here.
Religion is a very interesting topic and it brings many questions and opinions that nobody can answer beside God in my opinion. You have the choice to be a part of religion it comes down to your faith and how you want to live your life. I believe that church has helped me become the man i am today and has help improve my social interactions with others. Also it taught me not judge others different than me that believe in different things.

Well Informed 2- Racism

Racism comes in many ways and it is a very sensitive topic, but Racism exist and it will continue. People no matter what they are all human being created in my opinion by God, but due to the fact that we look different we separate ourselves from other that have different skin colors or different backgrounds for some reason. Racism is world wide issue that continue day by day no matter what. Racism is prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior.

I felt that Matthew Cooked did really well when explaining the origin and history of racism. He said that racism focused on at first what class you were in, but then eventually that lead to what race somebody was. He believes that many years each race has fought for equal rights, but we divided ourselves into groups which cause racial tension between inter group and the outer group. He also said that it might sound crazy but whites where slaves too, but they where still head of the black slaves and treated better. Whites seemed to be treated more favorably and promised a successful and better life. Matt also claims that 70 percent of black males do not trust the justice system whatsoever. And due to their skin color it is them against everybody.

I really enjoyed this topic and i really take it serious for the simple fact that i am bi racial. I am both black and white and proud of it. I raised to never see somebody for color, but for who the person they are. I really think Matt did a great job of stating all the facts and not being one sided at all.

Well Informed #1- future of Learning

Learning will continue to expand especially due to knew technologies in our society that are helping us succeed when come to learning. Many things have really improved learning such as computer, calculators, and the internet. Anything you need help on you can find it on World Wide Web! I plan on seeing many more advancements in the near future especially when comes to learning so each generation can continue to get better and better. I have been very lucky to have grown up with opportunity's to succeed when it comes to learning. I know this is crazy, but using a computer has always been a huge factor my success in the classroom. I am not very fond of books at all. It is crazy when i see little kids with kindles, ipads, and Iphones. I think it can be a positive and negative. You will be able to learn many things, but if we only depend on technology to learn then i think it will decrease out social skills and how we interact with others.

I am very excited for the future of learning and i'm glad to be a part of such special era to improve myself at highest ability.
