What did you learn today? (8/9/07)

Today we worked on GIS some more. I learned how to modify the DEM files.

What's your claim to fame?

I'm a pretty good athelete. I like soccer and basketball the best, but I have played tennis, football, golf, baseball, volleyball, ultimate frisbee, frisbee golf, ping pong, croquet, ice skating, roller blading, mountain biking, rock climbing, swimming, etc. I can pick up on any sport pretty fast and play it decently well. It helps that I am very competitive in everything that I do, which leaves me unsatisfied with anything other than winning!

Tell me about your best teacher/class experience:

It is hard for me to choose a favorite, so I will classify my selections into three categories: GE teachers, Religion teachers, and "Major" teachers. My favorite GE instructor is Scott Walker, for my Honors 200P English class my freshman year. He was really good at teaching us how to write and helping us express our ideas. My favorite Religion teacher is Todd Parker. I've had him 3 times now and I love his class. Finally, my favorite "Major" teacher is Scott Ritter.

Today we practiced drawing shapes in GIS so that we can begin to label the different formations.
