Part 1:
When I read about the Organize Information assignment I automatically thought about all my make-up that I have and using that would work perfect for the assignment, and it did. I had a fun time doing that assignment and I’m actually doing what I wrote for my assignment now. It’s been very convenient organizing everything that way. For the database assignment I had no problems with any of the websites. Some of the articles I found were actually really interesting. The only thing I am worried about is that there might not be enough information on my topics, so I’m hoping if I broaden my searches that this would help. So, instead of just searching for “bioterrorism” if I start searching for biowarfare or even the agents of bioterrorism such as, anthrax I’m hoping that will help.
Part2:
The only problem that I ran into was just worrying that I won’t have enough information for the final project. But I think I will be ok. I think doing the database assignment help me by understanding proquest better, I’ve never really done any work based on information from proquest so that assignment help out a lot.

Week 2
Part 1. Reflections on Course Content.
When I started looking for my topic I had absolutely no idea what I was going to pick. I decided to just start looking for something that might catch my eye. I went to the site that were provided and just starting looking around. The first thing that caught my eye was a section that had to do with health so I clicked on it and it brought me to a list of ideas and one of them being bioterrorism. And after that I just started to thing of ideas, such as, my last two HIV/AIDS and the water crisis. After looking for information on all the topics I decided the one I wanted to have my topic be was bioterrorism.
Part 2. Applications to your life.
So far I haven't had to many problems with the assignments, its just been try to find time to do them. I have other classes to which are online and they ask for quite a bight of my time too, I'm sure all of you can understand that.
As I said I didn't have to many problems with the work but I did have a few. One was trying to find a good encyclopedia for my topic. I ended up finding one but it didn't have as much information as I would have hoped. So I'm hoping next time I will be able to find better information.
