Subject: Taxonomies questions review!

Dear Dr. Levin,

To answer your assigned questions for this assignement, was the only thing that kept moving in my mind for the last few days!...The question that I kept asking my self: How I should answer your question in finding an example of educational use of technology that DOES NOT fit the Taxonomy?

Of course, first of all I have to know what is the meaning of that word "taxonomy" since (I swore!:)) that I heard it for the first time in my life!...Ok, I went to the dictionary and I know what it means now...Then I read what you wrote about that subject, and its really interesting to read those information you submit, and also I am now more prepared to say something about this subject if somebody accedantly :) open it!.

After that I went to the computer lab for so many hours, to read what other students from previous classes (in Ed Psy 387) wrote regarding this assignement. I wish for couple of seconds That I didn't read what they wrote! Why? Because I felt so poor in my information comparing to what they wrote...Even the language it self imberesd me for a while, I know that I am international student who can't (at least now) comparing my language to the native American ones...but I am trying my best though.

The first thing that jump to my head as an answer to your question is that conversation that I had wu=ith my supervisopr at work, when she mentioned to me the great CD collection of resepies for cooking that she had in her home...This is for sure a technology media but its not quite fit the Taxonomy you assigned. Then I remembered that homepages you showed us at the class in our first or second meeting regarding Pizza and Pepsi homepages!!! Its a kind of information that is available by the computer but doesn't seem to fit in either Inquiry, Communication, Construction, or Expression.

Yestarday, while I having my "time out" from studying!...I opened the TV to see something about the weather, then I saw a Movie (not sure if it's really a movie or something else) about Professor who develop a complicated system to help criminars at the prisons to return back to their normal life as normal people!! by using that strange computer programs and Rays to inter their mind and fix their behavior...Then the same Pro. imagined himself inter one of these prisons for a crime...there every thing is computerised, you can't do anything unless the computer tells you to do it!!! I know that (may be) this is not quite real, but it gaves me an idea that such computer programs and systems didn't fit the taxonomy...To tell you the truth, I just kept my self the whole previous days thinking about any thing if can fit or can't fit the taxonomy!!:)

Also may be some different programs in the computer as GRE (the computerized Exam), Driving licence Exam, Training programs such as how to teach flying lessons to the people who are interested in is all may be not fit in that classification of your taxonomy research!

Please let me know if I am in the right direction or not, computer for me in this view is really something new!
