Reflection Page This is my 8th grade reflection page. I will be answering questions like, what was the most interesting thing I learn about. The oil spill was the most interesting thing to me and how it covered 1,300 miles of the coastline. And how it killed as many as 2, 8000 sea otters, 300 harbor seals, 900 bald eagles and 250,000 sea birds. I also learned that 47,800 barrels of oil was into spilled the water. To clean it up it required over 10,000 workers, 1000 boats and 100 airplanes and helicopters. Some other interesting things I found out about was the panama flight getting bombed and how it killed 270 people and how they found 180,000 pieces of evidence in 40 different countries. America changed since my chosen decade was electronics like cell phones and TVs are different from the 80s they had big house phones and wooden color TVs. But today we have touch screen phones and flat screen TVs. The electronics today changed the world a lot and made things better. The problems I had with the hard ware / soft ware was every time I try to go back and delete a word or make a correction it would delete the whole sentence. Another problem I had was the computer freezing and going slow. This project really helped understand the computer better. The technology changed our society by the upgraded computers and other electronics making them better and it made it better for the people. Just shoot a quick e-mail or text message. Technology really changed this world and I think the world really changed a lot since the 80s.
