With one month left in the semester, the work load is starting to get harder each passing week. For Project 3, the instruction manual, there is one more week left before we need to submit it in. I have finished half of the project, and I just need a couple of pictures to make the instruction manual more interesting and to edit it so it fits within the word count needed for the project. After that is done, the final project is coming up, which we will be assigned to groups for that. I have some reservations about this upcoming project, as I will need to work with people I don’t know all that well, and I am wondering if they will be able to complete the part of their work that each of us will need to get done to obtain a good grade for this project. I hope that this final project will be accomplished without any problems, but I do have some doubts about it.

So far for this class, Technical Writing ENG2575 Section D576, the work load given here is okay from time to time. At times, assigned homework has felt very difficult due to other class assignments that I need to take care of, but it should be it gets easier to handle once I know those assignments aren’t as hard as I thought they would be.

In Nicholas Carr’s book, The Shallows, he talks about how the internet has changed not just his life, but many people’s lives over the years. He saw this back in 2007 after using the internet for the past ten years, which led him to see the change in him from using not just the the internet , but technology over the years. One of the things he mentions in his book is how clocks and maps have changed our perception of time and space respectively. He even discusses different time periods that have introduced some type of technology and what they have done to change us over the years. From the first few chapters, Carr’s book is very interesting as he has gone out of his way to mention old and newer technology.
