           The article "AUS students develop to Reduce Car Mishaps" which was written by a staff reporter whose name was not given discuses how a group of 4 Emirati students from the department of Computer Science and Engineering from Sharjah (An American University) developed a innovative sensor project with the main goal of lowering car crashes rates in UAE. The system helps drivers be alert on the driving activity that occurs around them the device even allows the driver to pick a desired radius in which it will function in (this can be up to several kilometers). This device is a major step forward towards the evolution of cars to self-driving cars because with this new sensor less accidents will occur with self-driven cars helping improve on the innovation. The sensor is connected to the cars dashboard to gain the data including speed, brakes, engine reading, etc. Then the device is connected to other devices through Zigbee it connects to cars with the same devices and allows them to share data with each other which in turn will help notify drivers of the driving activity surrounding them  and help lessen accidents. This new innovation I feel is a very good step forward to the future as it will help reduce car accidents which have a high rate of occurring. With lessen car accidents lives can be saved so this innovation is of great importance and should be added to all cars.

In lesson 10 we were required to create a game called Color Sleuth. In the game basically there are four similar colors and the objective is to choose the color that is different to the rest of them. While we coded the game in App Lab and made finishing touches to it we then were required to put it in on a webpage so it can be seen in our portfolio. Placing on the webpage allowed viewers to play the game so people can see if th...

WBL #1 Reflection Journal

Brian Velazquez                                                                                                           Digital Design               In today's workshop we focused on the 3 W's: Why, What & Where. The first W was Why CTE students need WBL Workshops. We need these workshops so we can learned of what is required to be able to achieve a CTE diploma and not fall behind in anything that we have not completed. The second W discussed in the workshop was What are the WBL requirements. This W focused on the discipline policy, WBL application, and the confidentiality agreement all this things are required of us as CTE students. We need to follow these rules and agreements so we ...

The image of myself was suppose to go  before the paragraph. Now to add an image to an HTML code, the image tag needs to be included in the code. Also the image source has to be included which can be done if the image is dragged into the software it is lines of codes are. The dimensions of the image can be manipulated by setting the height and width. Actually, only one valu...
