Homework 3

1) The followings are three quotes I found meaningful and interesting from the website (http://eetiquette.com):

"Do not forget the power of the pen. A handwritten thank-you note will have a much greater impact than a digital message with equivalent content." (http://eetiquette.com/24/)

"People first: a real person always has priority over a device and deserves your full attention." (http://eetiquette.com/71/)

"Don’t live each and every moment through your digital camera." (http://eetiquette.com/133/)

2) A piece of technology I brought into class the other week was my iPhone. We could use it creatively in an (art) class by taking and/or downloading pictures and/or videos and/or then by using applications that are available and/or softwares on computers. Perhaps, Students would be able to listen to music, watch videos, and/or web search on iPhone for their inspiration.
