What I would like to teach my audience is the importance of Artificial Intelligence and why it can have a major impact on everyones lives. The reason why I want to teach about AI is because I personally find it amazing on how it works and I also know the importance of AI for society as a whole. I wanna reach an audience that is not too educated on the technology side of the world and show them why they should have an interest like I do. The genre I plan on using is a sci-fi genre that has a fictional story with real life facts that I can use. I chose this genre because I want a story that is interesting to readers so that they keep invested in it to learn about AI while they are reading. Fictional stories are also one of the main genres readers read. My plan to getting started is to start to create characters and their background and also the main point of the story and how it will teach the audience the importance of AI. I will also create a timeline and what happens at certain points in the timeline. My first step would be to brainstorm the main characters life and what he or she will be doing throughout the story. The only things that I will worry about is the research that I will have to do to make sure that what I tell in the story is accurate to real facts in the real world.
Category: Unit 3
HW 3.1
In studies where a stranger approach was taken, the wolves exhibited more avoidance behavior compared to dogs, and instances of aggression were more common in pet dogs. Researchers, Friederike Range and Sarah Marshall-Pescini of the Konrad Lorenz Institute of Ethology at the University of Veterinary Medicine in Vienna wrote, “Only in tests involving access to resources did four of 16 wolves consistently show aggression toward humans, while none of the 11 dogs did. Studies using a stranger’s threatening approach found more avoidance behavior in adult wolves than in dogs and more occurrences of aggression in (pet) dogs.” Overall, these findings indicate differences in how the wolves and the dogs react to resource related situations and threatening approaches. The wolves displayed more aggression in resource-related tests and the dogs showed more aggression in response to threatening strangers.
Unit 3 proposal
For unit 3 I will be writing about the differences between wolves’ and dogs’ behaviors but also how they are alike. I chose this topic because it seemed like an interesting fun topic to learn about these two species that have so much in common but live different lifestyles. The audience that I would like to reach is that of people that just want to know more about animals or maybe they are dog lovers learning more facts about their furry friends. I would like to target this audience specifically because I do think that at times people want to read a fun, interesting article about animals just to expand their knowledge. My first step would be finding a particular point from my research that I would like to go into depth more and build from that for my article. One thing that I am worried about is how creative it would be, for example if it is physically appealing. Another would be I don’t want to make something that was supposed to be a fun article into a boring article about 2 kinds of animals.
