Do Now: 12-5

Nothing really ignites my desire to better the world, and don't there has to be something to ignite it. I think that desire naturally comes with being a decent person. My life goal is merely to be happy, therefore I don't see how that would benefit society in anyway. It's somewhat of a selfish goal, but whatever.

Discussion Questions: Digg Reader


1) I chose certain sites for my Digg Reader because I really couldn't think of anything better.
2) It was not easy to find feeds and subscribe to them. Mostly because I dislike a large majority of things.
3) My personal sites are my favorite
4) For being updated on your favorite sites.
5) I don't know how likely it will be for me to be using RSS feeds in the future.

Tax Class

   This class helps you know and understand how to pay your taxes once you graduate from high school. Not many schools have this course, yet I find it to be very important for students to know how to be successful for the future; not only academically, but also through mandatory knowledge in order to sustain the life of an average citizen.
   This class would meet two or three times a week depending on when graduation was. Students would demonstrate their work through being given multiple tax scenarios and would have to learn how to solve them and ultimately learn how to pay their taxes by themselves.
