We all want to change the world but it takes small steps to actually change the world. I want to reduce the amount of CO2 emissions in Cape Coral by 2%. This will take a lot of working together and bringing attention to the issue. While the overall goal of the project is to reduce the CO2 emissions the main event will be a green festival. Like the reading festival there will be many booths set up downtown with different educational opportunities for anyone who wants to come.

It will take around three months to plan an event like this. There will have to be food, people who want to set up booths, gathering volunteers, and the hardest challenge will be making sure everything is environmentally friendly. Everything will have to be run through an alternative power source, probably solar because we are in Florida, because fossil fuel use for transportation and electricity is one of the biggest reasons behind the rise in CO2 emissions. It is going to cost quite a bit of money to put this together, but with volunteers and a small entree fee for businesses it will not take to long.

In order to be a nurse you have to be a very nurturing person and after raising four kids of my own and so many others I believe I have that trait. I have had to deal with dozens of sick days and it’s never just one kid that gets sick. I know how to handle people and what they need when they’re sick.

I also have years in customer service and that’s the main focus behind nursing, other than all of the medical things. You need to know how to talk to people when them or their loved ones are sick or injured. Many people get aggressive and there are certain ways to deal with that. Through numerous jobs working with the public I’ve learned many different methods for it.

1.        Describe your social media website and its purpose.

a.       My websites purpose is to connect nursing students across the United States to review jobs, find study partners, and review professors and schools. When they create an account, they will take a test that ranks their personal learning styles. Then based on learning styles and classes being taken students will either be paired with a study partner of they can choose to be a part of a study group. Apart from the study groups there will also be a forum separated into jobs and school sections.

2.       Name and discuss at least three terms of use from your site.  In other words, what are the rules?

a.       Members must be able to prove that they are a student. This is a student only website so it is important that it stays that way. There will also be a team of administrators that review the forums and ban any members that have repeated use of vulgar language or extremely off topic posts. The forum is supposed to be for student and nursing issues only. Members must be eighteen and up. Nursing can sometimes contain sensitive subjects, which should only be viewed and discussed by adults.

3.       Name the physical, political, ethical, and economical (PEPE) concepts of your social media site.  We will do a website as an example together.

a.       There will be no membership fee so anyone who has access to internet can afford to use my website. There is also no politics allowed on the forum so political issues should not arise among members. Records of signups will stay private information. The website will make money by selling ad space.
