For the story lab i decided to do it over the article 8 Reasons to Join an Online Course . This Article hit on eight key points which are as follows, Varety is good, the location, the time is up to you, teaching, coaching and feedback, the pace is up to you, the topics and lessons are up to you, community and after-course support.  These are very interesting points and I think the top three that I agree with would be location of the online course is very important because it allows me to adapt it into my day. This leads into the next point I like which would be the time is up to you. This is very important to me as I am very busy now in my senor year studying mechanical engineering and have very little free time. the third and final point that I think really sold this article was the coaching and feedback. With online classes, most of the time the feedback your receive on assignments is very good, and very instructive on what you can change. This was a very good article and really...

The story that drew my attention for today's reading notes was the story of The Boy in the Moon . This story came from the Alaskan legends section of the Native American Stories. This was a very interesting story where there use to be four brothers that had a sister. They were friends with a boy. then one day the boy fell for the girl.

The plot that i got from this was that no matter how fast you chase those you love, you may never catch them, but no matter how far you are from them you can still help them as the girl helps the boy when he is low on energy.

The story I chose to read for the first reading this week was the Raven's Feast . This story came from the Alaskan Native American Section. This was a somewhat difficult read in understanding what was going on throughout the story.  But from what I gathered in this story the Raven was having a Burial feast for his mother that recently died. In the story the raven invited the Gonaqadet because it had a special hat and blanket. This was interesting because it really did not go into much more detail of what this character did. So fir this story i did not really put a underlying plot from it. (The Picture is of a Raven, Picture Source: Raven )
