I think librarians are experts on looking for books and books in general. I think they help people to find the book for a certain subject. I dont know. I dont really think librarians are cool. l.o.l. I guess maybe if they gave away candy tat would be cool. I dont know!!

June 29, 2009 (What do you think is the future of books? Do you think we'll ever see a future where everything is online? What are the advantages of )

I think the future of books is very slim. I think pretty soon all books will be online and librarys will just be full of computers for people to read books on. So basically we'll only have electronic books to read. Yes, I definatly think theres a future where everything will be online. The advantagesof a book are that you can easily take it where ever you go, also you can write in them if you own them.

I wasnt really scared. We have tornado warnings all the time and I;ve come to the point where I just dont really sweat them anymore. It did sort of get realistiv though when that funnel cloud was over the building and we could see it clearly moving around. But other than than, Im sort of glad that warning happened because we got out of class early!!!!

June 25, 2009 (What do you hope to study when you go to college? Why?)

What I hope to study when I go to college is pre-med. I want to study this because it will help me fulfill my dream of becoming a Neonatal Doctor when I grow up. Also because it will help me in the long run for graduate school.

June 24, 2009 (What did you think about yesterday's class on Expert Googling? Did you try searching the Internet using some of the things t)

I think yesterdays class on expert Googling was kind of boring. I'll never use any of that information taught because I didnt really like the ways I was taught. Yes I tried searching some things on the internet using the things I were taught and it was okay but not something I'll ever really do. No, I didnt really notice a diffrence in the type of information I found.

June 19, 2009 (What do you think about the spoof websites from today's class? Does it make you consider the Internet differently than you did before?)

I think the spookwebsites from today's class were interesting. I knew there were sites out there like that on the internet but I've never really been to one. But If I ever did run into one I think I'd know it was fake. The information on those websites areeasy to identify as fake, and anyone who believes any of them are out of whack and need help. No, these websites didnt make me consider the internet diffrenly than I did befo. I still rely on it as my number one resource for research, you've just got to be smart about it when your browsing.

June 23, 2009 (Finding accurate and/or factual information on the Internet is __________________________. Why do you think that?)

Finding accurate and/or factual information on the internet easy! I think this because it's easy access, and you don't have to be very smart to do it. You dont have to go through very much to look for info on the internet, and also it gives you accurate information most of the time. I also perfer looking for information through the internet because anyother way seems too much like a drag.

June 22, 2009 (You made it through your first week of the HCPC program-- how do you feel about things?)

Now that I've made it through my first week of PCHCP I feel a slight relief. Im glad that the first week is over, but im not really anticiated these next four weeks. I just feel like the program shouldnt be so long. Technically we should be done at 1:50, but there was a bunch of nonesense classes added on to the schedule that we just sit the whole time in. But, whatever I guess. And the lunch to me is HORRIBLE!! I hate it so much, I wish wecould go off campus, or just have the same subway sandwhich everyday like the downtown campus, I'd rather have that than the lunch we have.The work isn't too hard just yet. Im hanging in there. But so far so good...

June 18, 2009 (Do you seek out a librarian when you need help finding information for your homework? Why or why not?)

No, I never seek out a librarian when i need help finding information for my homework. The reason for me is because it just never comes to mind. If I need info for something i just go to google.I guess it just our generation, we'd rather use technology rather than an human. Plus, what if i needed info over the weekend, I would want to have to drive allll the way to the library just so they can help me find info, when i can find itt on the internet?

June 17, 2009 (When you have to write a paper for a class, where do you start researching information for your topic?)

When I have to write a paper for a class, I start researching for information on google. It seems like the easiest website to acccess information from. I go here for almost everything and get an answer 99% of the time. Sometimes when i search for things on Google it almost always brings up links to Wiki so I guess you can say i use both the search engines. I heard that Wiki sometimes has false information, thats why I don't use it as my main search engine.

June 16, 2009 (Why do you think you have to attend library instruction classes?)

I think we have to attend library instruction classes because it helps to further our knowledge of the online library here at UCD. It also helps us so we have more resources to go to while in our 5-week program. We also probaly have to attend this library instruction class because it is beneficial to our college education in the future. We'll probly end up using the same type of online library no matter what college we go to, so this is a lead way to what we might experience in college. Finally, because it's somethig fun to add onto the program. Instead of us sitting in the classrooms for hours and hours, it feels good to get a break and browse the online library.
