Career Clusters

  The cluster I scored highest in was Arts, A/V Technology, and Communications, with a score of 71. Jobs that fall under the cluster include copy editor, online journalist, advertising, journalist, character animator, freelance designer or artist, illustrator, and computer animator. Characteristics for the Arts, A/V Technology, and Communications cluster are creativity, technological know-how, and strong customer service skills.
  Personally, I think his cluster fits me rather well, and it was the one I was most anticipating. I love writing, so if I somehow manage to get published I feel my life would be set. Others I scored high in were Architecture and Construction, Education and Training, Health Science, and Information Technology, all tying with 65.

Project Wrap-Up

Being able to access Google Docs from home proved to be incredibly helpful, the only problems I really see is the constant clutter on the homepage. Being able to work with my partner at the same time also proved helpful, especially on the presentation, as we each could work on a different slide, being able to finish it much faster. Google could improve Google Docs by adding a more fonts and themes to its lists, and opening the homepage should show your collections first, and then you should chose from there, somewhat akin to the  way Windows explorer organizes files. Overall I think my project turned out fine, though it could have been better.

Windows 8, the newest installment in the Windows line of operating systems, is set to have a screen resolution more intuitive, sharper, and that rivals even the sate-of-the-art 'Retina display' of the newest i-Pad. On tablets the display will vary from 1024 pixels by 768 pixels up to 2560 pixels by 1440 pixels. The resolution on PCs will vary by screen size, being 1366 pixels by 768 pixels on 14-inch screens and will support 30+-inch screens.
