Technology Tune-up

The technology in this class is familiar to me, but is not what I use in my average class. Normally, classes use canvas for quizzes, or even tests, and normally post some resources there. However, this class opts to use a blog format and does not have quizzes or exams. I have used PBWorks with previous classes and find it normal to use. While Canvas is nice because you can easily scroll through all the modules, the blog layout of this class flows really well - maybe the team at Canvas could take a look at that when looking at how to improve their website.

The main web skills I want to focus on developing this semester are in creating my own website. I've done this before, but I want to manage the server myself and run multiple websites at once. It'll be an interesting engineering challenge, but I will be potentially trying to set that up during the semester if I have the time.

I find working on technology fun; personal picture of an OU robotics emergency stop remote control I worked on with my team last semester.

Introduction to a Robotics Nerd: Justin

Hi everyone! My name is Justin Kleiber, and I am a senior in Computer Engineering. My passion is robotics, which is the main reason I ended up choosing my major. At OU, I am the president of Sooner Competitive Robotics, which is one of the engineering college's competition teams (hit me up if you want to join!). I also do research on campus, where I mainly work on making a quadcopter fly around without a pilot controlling it. I help a group of high school students in OKC build and program a robot for the FIRST robotics competition, a worldwide high school robotics program. I love robotics, and as such, robots tend to surround my life. A picture I took of the research drone flying in its cage Additionally, I am really competitive and love sports. I've gone to every home OU football game in the four years I have been here, as well as to the Rose Bowl, the Peach Bowl, and two Red River Shootout games. Growing up, I was a huge Virginia Tech fan because my parents went there...

Week 5 Story: Sita is Over You

Sita is Over You After leaving Ravana's hometown in Sri Lanka, Sita was so glad to see one of her favorite people, Rama. She ran toward him and jumped into him with a flying hug, but to her surprise, Rama did not return her embrace. "Rama, is everything okay?" Sita asked. With a dull look in his eyes, Rama replied "No, you have been sleeping with another man - how dare you! I come in here and put myself out here, but you are not loyal to me. How can I move forward in this relationship??" Sita was taken aback - this is not normally how Rama had responded to pressure situations in the past - and with Ravana in the picture, Sita had thought Rama had been a good sport. But now he had cracked. His confidence was shattered, and now he thought she was sleeping with another man! Even though Sita knew she and Ravana had not slept together, she let Rama go on with his tirade. After he ran out of anger, Sita calmly said "So that's how you really feel? That I hav...
