I think I would need to use this tool quite a few times to get used to it and to really learn how to do it. I also think the control bar will take a little time to get used to given that it changes every time you click on a different tool. I think the rectangle tool will be fairly easy to use given that it is just various shapes you can choose from and you can either drag or type in the size of the shape that you want. I think the pen tool might be the easiest tool to use because you can really manipulate it to make whatever shape you want or need. I think making it curvy rather than straight might take a little practice though.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GzumUieDPY   He explained the rectangle tool very well. I also think the star tool will be fairly easy to use because it is very similar to the rectangle tool. I think the c...

The internet is a worldwide network of billions of electronics and computers. Not one person created the internet, but rather a group of scientists and other people over time. This goes back to the 1950-1960s around the peak of the Cold War. The US needed a communications system and the computers at the time were too big, expensive, and were limited in numbers. At the time the internet was used for defense communication during the war. Now it is primarily used for communication, entertainment, and information/research.  The world wide web is a system of interconnected public webpages that you can access via the internet. Tim Berners-Lee created the www in 1989. The www was originally created to bring together the technologies of computers, data networks, and hypertexts into a more powerful and easier to use global information system. It was mainly for scientists and academics to share information. Today we use it everyday to shop, for entertainment, communication, social netwo...

My name is Mia Matteo, I am a freshman. I am from a small town in South Jersey, right outside of Philadelphia. One fun fact about me is that I have a brother who goes to UT and is a senior. Another fun fact is I went to high school in Delaware, even though I live in NJ. I like to hang out with friends, go to the pool or beach, I love to shop as well, and go for walks.  I am excited to take this class, it is different from any other classes I've taken. I did not take any art classes in high school so I think it will be fun. I also think this class could be challenging at times, but a fun type of challenge. I expect to learn how to make things online look more appealing, and learn how to use new software. I am nervous about learning a new software and having to work with it fast, but I think it'll all be good.
