Screen Capture from Week 1

I decided to take my screenshot when I was working on my activity. When I saw the screenshot, I noticed that I had many files open. One file that I always open when I am studying is iTunes. I think that listening to music helps me relax and actually helps me think more. I didn’t realize that I had so many files open until I took that screenshot. Also, all the files were minimized. It is so much better to work on the computer because you get to see everything that you are doing. When composing in digital space, everything is right in front of your eyes and you will find what you need with a click of a button. You can easily find information without the hassle of searching through books. Additionally, composing in digital space is much faster than composing without the computer. I believe that we can get work done faster on the computer. However, we can easily get distracted. If we find something interesting on the internet while we are composing then we usually stop working and focus more on less important things. Also, if we have accounts or emails, we usually open them and concentrate more on them rather than our work. For example, I have a Facebook account which I open almost every time open my computer. I can see that I have it open in my screenshot. Furthermore, we can better understand digital composing processes by using the computer frequently. The more you work on it, the more you will understand it.
