In the article “Deal reached on delaying raises for Denver deputies” by Christopher N. Osher, what matters the most is that the men and women that protect the city of Denver get better pay. I think that it is very important that people that risk their life to protect others get a good pay. If they did not get paid enough many, people could have quit because of the low pay. The deputies got received a 20,000 dollar pay raise annually and that is a great pay raise for the men and women who protect the city of Denver.

In the article "Our Googley advice to students: Major in learning" by Google Blog, what matters is that google is becoming more and more advanced every year. I can relate this to Micheal Weschs video "The Machines are using us" because in his video he says that computers learn from us every time we use them. Also there are many characteristics that state how important google and its ideals are to the world. One thing that i thought was interesting was that education never stops no matter how old you are, so learn how to get a good education at a young age and you will succed better in later in your life.

In the article "Rigor Redefined" by Tony Wagner what matters is that schools are not preparing students for the 21st century and what that will bring for them. This may not allow students to get jobs which will lead to a lot of students not being able to live anywhere. The way that students are being schooled is not all correct and it should be changed. I can relate to this because my English teacher wants to teach me very well so that i know everything that i can which i appreciate a lot. I hope that things will change and i will get a great education and succeed in life and have a great job.

I disagree with this article “Key Board Vs. Pen” by Virginia Berninger because when I write with pen and paper I turn in horrible work, but if I were to do my work on a computer I do a lot better work. Also my work is sloppy and messy with pen and paper so I get graded down on that but on a computer your work is neat and nice looking. I do not spell things well and so a computer helps me with that and also to look up words on the internet. With a computer you can email your work or put it on a jump drive which makes your work easier to transport so it does not get crumpled or ripped until I need to print it. It is also very helpful for revisions because on paper there is just a bunch of stuff thrown onto the page with computers you can just go through erase and put in new stuff.

In the article "Footprints in the Digital Age" by Will Richardson what matters is that if you are a very good hard worker and do a lot of good things but no one know's until they find out. So in a digital footprint you can hurt your future or help your future or present so if you use the computer in a good way than you can benifit from that. What also matters is that younger kids need to be more informed about what technology can do to their present and future.

In Mr. Fisch's video "2020" what matters is that technology is transforming the world. It will effect education because the technology will be so advanced that we will not need school any more, because the internet will have everything there is to know and students could just cheat on every assignment they have.This is like Mr. Fisch's video "Did you Know" when he talks about how there will be laptops that will be smarter than the human race someday.

In the article "Solar Power Plant is Coming to Brush" by an anonymous of the Denver Post what matters is that Colorado is making solar energy plant, which will provide jobs. This is very important that Colorado has done this becasue it will create more enregy for a lot of Colorado and also provide over 380 jobs and in this economy that is very good for people who have not been able to find jobs. When people get jobs they can have money and then when more people get jobs it makes the economy better.
