Problem and solution
My problem and my object are not very creative. But my problem was being overwhelmed and stressed and my object is my car. So in order for me to fix that problem using my object, I could use my car to drive me to the gym to workout to relieve some stress or I could drive my car to the beach to get away from everything which always relieves my stress, or I could just simply drive around listening to country music which always makes me feel better.

Ghostery and Collusion
After I downloaded collusion and ghostery, I found that people were tracking me through the internet. It was not so much people tracking me it was more of pages, such as google. It was strange to see that some websites I only had about 1 or 2 trackers but others there was up to 5 trackers. I definitely like these apps because I can see who is trying to track me and block them.

Snezana Markovic
This article is written my a Serbian computer science teacher, Snezana Markovic. Serbia's education policies do not allow online education for their students so Snezana came up with an effective online learning program for her students at her school. She was two first place awards for this creative online progrom in 2010 and then again in 2012. Her work has transformed learning for the teachers and the students at her school. She believed that the policies and rules that were in place did not take the students into consideration so that is why she began this online learning program. On her online learning program students were able to use any tool they wanted to so that they could study any topic needed. This gave students a chance to set a goal for themselves and helped them to be more hands on while learning. Markovic found that students were way more motivated to learn and this encouraged them to be successful.
