Wiki Research

1. A wiki can be used in my sports marketing class to do a project. We can communicate and each do our part easier with a wiki.
2. The benefits of a wiki are that it allows multiple people to edit a document and it is much easier to use.
3. We can do project and use a wiki to communicate throughout the class
4. I have never used a wiki before

Invisibility Cloak

If I were given an invisible cloak for a day, I would go around different schools to see if there is any bullying going on. I do not like it when people are bullied and I don't think it is fair to make fun of someone just because they are different. People who are bullied feel like they have nobody to turn to and can do harm to their selves.
Another thing I would do is take the bus to New York City and help out the homeless. The winter is nearing and New York has one of the highest rates of homelessness. People are being denied to shelters because of them being full and the shelters are also running out of supplies because of the large number of people.

The Galaxy Round

Samsung has released a new phone called the Galaxy Round. It is the first phone of its kind with a curved screen. The screen is 5.7 inches and uses advanced display technology called organic light-emitting diode (OLED). The phone will only be released in South Korea for now and retails for 1.1 million won or $1,000. The phone is an initial step before being able to make flexible phones.

My New Class

The class I would add to our school curriculum that we don't already have is self-defense. I feel like self-defense is one of the most important things you need to know because you can be attacked at any minute. Most people don't ever learn how to fight because they feel like they don't need to know how or they will never get attacked but it can happen to anybody.

Graphene the "Miracle Material"

Graphene is a one-atom thick layer of carbon arranged in honeycomb lattice. When millions of these are stacked on top of each other they form Graphene. It was discovered by 2 physicists in 2004 at UK's University of Manchester named Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov. They isolated a single layer of Graphene using Scotch tape and received the Noble Peace price in 2010. It is more conductive than copper and about 1000 times more then silicon. It is harder than diamond and about 300 times harder than steel. It can also stretch 20% of its original length and is still visible. Graphene will allow a new generation of flexible gadgets like phones and tablets. It could also make solar panels more efficient and allow digital devices to be embedded almost anywhere from cloth to walls.
