September 26th In-Class blogpost

        So far in my researching endeavors, much modification was done. Our group went from Technology in the modern society, to the evolution of technology as a whole, to the evolution of modern society, I found it quite difficult to change and modify my findings it was almost as if as soon as I get comfortable with my specific topic or Research question things tended to make a complete u-turn and my whole block of information was considered null and void (not that a did a lot of research or anything).

        As far as the information found... I found much  information in the books that we were sent to sent down scavenge for. I felt as though it was necessary for me to jot down all the books that I had looked for, because when we were supposed to analyze the books we found, I found a lot of information on cell phones and their modern evolution. I feel as though, when researching our group found and narrowed the question we needed to a sound core for an excelling grade

         So.... for my usual tangent, I sat there and just thought to my self as I saw the juxtaposition of cell phones now to cell phones then, "and I think to my self, what a wonderful world" Cheesy? Of course. But I feel like we chose the right topic to fully understand the modern marvels of society. So we can fully understand how much of, Social Cavemen we really were in the past.... SO THANK YOU, PROGRESSION, FOR BEING SUCH A MARVELOUS CONCEPT!!!!

  1. Research is messy. I like to say that we call it research because you search, then re-search, and then re-search, again and again!

    I'm glad you took the time to jot down info on all of the books you looked for if there was anything useful in there. I wrote the assignment to make you apply your evaluation criteria and pick one over another to practice evaluation, but often you'll find several books that are good in different ways. And sometimes you grab 2 books and one is good while one is total BS, but sometimes you grab 10 books that are all totally credible. You never know until after you've evaluated them!
