I couldn't answer the question 1,2,3 because my poles were block.
 
1) If you wanted to do an online poll with the students of Technologico de Montorrey asking them how much time and effort they spent doing homework this year, what are the steps you would take to complete that online poll?
 First I would create the polls, then I would put the questions from easy to hard, then I would tell the school directory to inform every one to do it.

2)Do you think online polling could help the administration of Tech de Montorrey find out more about their students? Or do you think that the results would not be accurate? Why or why not?
 
NO, because many people are lazy to do online surveys or work. So they just do it fast.


3)How do you think the results of your polls would be different if you asked your classmates the questions in person?
 
It would be different , because everyone has a different opinion or answer.




4)In what ways do you think online polling using Google Spreadsheets can be improved? Or was it easier to create an online poll than you originally thought? Explain.
It is ok the way it is. Because it is very easy to use and very simple. It doesn't need any change or improvements.

1. Discuss what the main idea of the video is? The main idea of the video is to inform the audience about how different the generation we are living in today is from the past generations. It makes us realize how our pace of life influences our quality of life and the one who surround us.  2. Do you see yourself as past oriented or future oriented? Why?
I see myself more future oriented than past oriented. How I can tell that I am future oriented is because everything I do in the past ill make sure I don't do in the future if its bad. I look more to the future of technology.

 3. Do you agree or disagree with the speaker in the video? Explain why? 
I agree with the speaker of this video because when I think about the things he said it made me realize that our generations are both improving but loosing many values at the same time. He mentions how American families are decreasing the time they spend together, and how teenagers are dropping out of school because they get upset when they cant control everything like in videogames and society continues to fall apart due to our dependence on technology.
 4. Do you agree with the speaker's view that young adults' minds are being "digitally rewired"? Explain your answer.
 No because we have the choice to use technology or not because we can choose when to quit.

Young people dislike single-function devices such as the wristwatch because we are used to utilizing devices that are multi-functional and make our life a lot easier. We are too lazy to even do a simple thing such as figuring out the time on a watch that is not digital. this is upsetting because we want everything to be easy and done with no effort.


 1. Why did Sir Tim Berner's Lee decide to make the World Wide Web free when he created it at CERN?
He decided to make the World Wide Web free when he created it so that every single person around the world could have access to it. The fact that it is available to everyone makes us free and communicated with other people. If they charged for the Web many people would not be able to use it and be informed about the happenings in the world.

 2. What are the benefits of having "web addresses," an idea that Sir Tim Berner's Lee created?
The benefits of having Web Addresses are that it is easier for a person to access the desired web page. If we had to use the code it would be a lot of more work having to memorize each code for the desired web page.  3. How does the World Wide Web allow people from all over the world to communicate?
It allows everyone all over the world to communicate because by using the internet we can communicate with people that are all around the world. Well we use facebook to communicate with other people around the world.
 4. Why is it important to link information? What are the benefits of having instant access to information?
 It is important to link information because we are able to access it more quickly without having to look for the web page again. The benefits of having access to the information is that it encourages people to do it due to the fact that it takes less effort.
