Stepping Up My Technology Game



I am not familiar with most of the blog post technology or website publishing. This classroom environment is very new to me, but I am happy to learn more because I journaled over the summer and might be interested in making a blog in the future about my travels. It would be fun way to keep track of what I have done and seen. My brother is very tech savvy because he is a programmer, and I hope I can get closer to his level this semester (key word: closer). 
I set up a bookmark folder for this course and have already used it to bookmark a few important pages. I have not used any technology to create my own graphics, but I’m interested in learning more about it. In high school, I took computer class as my language credit and we explored Photoshop. It was really fun but complicated to use all of the tools in Photoshop - there were almost too many tools and I quickly found my favorites and stuck to them. It will be nice to learn how to use a web-based program that won’t be as complex. I know many people who use Canva to make presentations and brochures, and I think it will be a good skill to learn and be able to use in the future for my career.

Introduction to a Future Health Professional

Hellloooo everyone, my name is Karissa Hughes, and here is a little bit about me. I have twin, who I live with and also goes to OU; the nature of our relationship is loving annoyance. Although I do not have a cat, my roommate does, and I'm already obsessed with him and his little socks. His name is Boomer, and sometimes I accidentally call him Sooner. My major is Health, Medicine, and Society. It is multidisciplinary, which I appreciate because I like learning from different perspectives, and is geared towards pre-Medicine students. I have already completed all of the pre-Med prerequisites, but I'm still not exactly sure if I want to go to medical school. I recently learned more about the field of Public Health and have become interested in possibly pursuing a career in that instead. Health has become my passion, especially learning more about the social aspects of health, how various identities affect health experiences, and the reasons behind and consequences of health

Week 10 Story: The Jewelry Soothsayer

Image
There once was an ambitious, talented woman, named Gamze, who recently lost her job working as a jewelry appraiser. She was fired because they suspected her of theft; she hated discovering her colleagues' mistrust of and prejudice against Turkish people. Gamze was cast as a soothsayer, a trickster, a thief in their imagination, dismissing her dedication to her work and willingness to help others. She had a husband, named Alperan, who was stuck - stuck between 40 and 50 years and caught between multiple jobs. Gamze wanted more from their life, and she knew that she would be the one to raise the status of their family. Gamze looked for other jobs but this reputation followed her to job interviews. She wondered how they could suspect her; if she had stolen the diamond and sapphire ring, she would not be subjecting herself to interviews with old white men. One evening, a previous client, Benan, called Gamze to see if she had appraised a stolen necklace in the last few days. Gamze k
