Good and Bad Websites


Mercari and LetGo are both websites that help individuals buy and sell products from all different categories. These websites help people get rid of their possessions by selling them to others, normally, for cheaper prices than originals. A successful website comes from how likely users are to visit and use it. The set up and layout of a website is one of the most important things in attracting user attention and working to gain an online following. Another very important topic is user ability. A website that is easy for users to navigate will cause them to use the website multiple times. Having qualities such as these is what makes a good website. Mercari and LetGo are both great websites to help users find what they are looking for, but I believe LetGo is a good website where Mercari is a bad website in these terms.
LetGo has many different search options, which provides users the ability to search exactly what they are looking for. It allows users to select tabs regarding their price range, location range, and distance. There are also different catagories to narrow down your search if you are looking for a specific type of product, and even a search bar. Mercari only has a search bar and different categories. I feel that as a user it is harder to use Mercari to find specific items and is only geared towards buyers who know exactly what they are looking for. Both of these websites also have apps, which is helpful for users, but the apps are designed the same way as the websites. Based off the layout, design, and user ability, I believe LetGo is a good website and Mercari is a bad website.

    I do like Letgo better than Mercari especially Letgo layout. I like how they show different items that you may be interested in on the homepage. My mom actually uses Letgo to buy stuff from and she never had any problems. I just like Letgo setup better than Mercari.

Smackdown 2

I chose the website Zoom.us. Zoom is a website for individuals to conduct video conference calls. Unlike websites like skype, in Zoom you can share screens with multiple people and turn on and off many different features. I find that sharing screens is extremely helpful when possibly giving a presentation or using diagrams and images to explain certain topics. I feel that this website can help anyone while a student and in their future careers. In my future career as a Physician Assistant, working with PA’s all over the world is common and truly helpful to the profession. It is important to be able to show other medical professionals new medical information and cases that arise.                 I feel that as a student, websites like Zoom can be important because if a student has a presentation, but are unable to be in class that day, they can possibly give the presentation from home using Zoom and t...

Chapter 6 Connected Educator

Image
Online networks and communities are some of the most influential resources individuals can use to help their education and career. Chapter 6 of the textbook states, “knowledge, learning, and innovation can be managed within virtual networks and communities and then leveraged to amplify learning for all” (Nussbaum-Beach, p 92). Using networks can help individuals connect with professionals all around the world. While networking can be extremely helpful, there are some questions one must ask themselves before following everyone and anyone. Look out for key factors that can indicate they are an illegitimate site or individual. Make sure they use a real name and not a pseudonym, see if the content they are sharing is of value, and if it is interesting to you. Creating my own network seemed difficult at first, but after reading the chapter, I felt much more confident in my abilities. I feel that as long as you follow the criteria you look for in a credible site, to build your own plat...

Chapter 7

After reading chapter 7, I feel that spread is the most important factor related to my future career as a Physician Assistant. The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects a 38% job growth rate for the Physician Assistant profession through 2022. The influx of providers and spread of the profession, will hopefully allow more individuals to become aware of the profession. Many individuals do not know what physician assistants are, and some people refuse to see one for medical care. I also believe that the growth of the profession would bring more knowledge to the medical community. With more physician assistants, more medical professionals would be involved to share their thoughts, ideas, and stories regarding cases and medical information. Not only will this help other professionals, it will help patients as well. Using websites such as blogs, will allow medical professionals, especially physician assistants, to communicate with each other and share knowledge about medical cases...
