Post # 8 - Online Games that are Good?

In Unit 6 we looked at video games and board games, and how they can be good or bad for people to play. I want you to find a free online game, play it and then write a review about the game. Tell the reader your opinion about the game (if it is a good game or not), a brief description of the game and a few reasons why it is good or not. Here are some links to free online games.

Post # 7 - Is Chivalry Dead?

I have attached a link to an article from the Calgary Metro about "Manners" on Calgary C-trains. Please read the article and write a response to what it says about WHY people nowadays have a decline in manners and polite behavior (chivalry). Click here!

Post # 6 - C-train Etiquette

Have you ever taken to c-train or any other public transportation in Calgary? What kind of etiquette do c-train riders need to follow? Think of some written and unwritten rules that people need to follow when taking the c-train in Calgary. How are these rules enforced? Do you think we need more rules, or fewer rules? Why?
