Second EIR lesson

The Second EIR lessons was very interesting. We had to comment on two of our classmates' blogs and have a look at each other's works! I got to see many great blog designs and ideas!

For one of the exercises, we have to go online shopping with "$500" to experience shopping for things we like online. This is really relevant to us as an increasing number of buyers and sellers meet online for transactions. Not knowing how to buy things online is a serious disadvantage in any aspect of your life.

We also had to choose our research topic for our future projects and assignments; I chose 9 - studying how online gaming affects youths.

I chose this topic mainly because of the rising trend of adolescents and teenagers getting addicted to online games to such an extent that they live without the division of reality and the virtual world.

These are some of the most addictive games! (I've tried playing most of them before Hehe)

Dota


World of Warcraft


HellGate London

Hmm.. Gaming is good. Can help us destress. By the way you didn't post what you want to buy with the imaginary $500.
