Good Vs. Bad Website Smackdown

 lululemon athletica Logo  To begin with, my example of a good website is Lululemon which is a popular clothing brand. This brand is known for being very expensive but once you see how their products perform and how they are tested to be the best of the best, the price will no longer matter. Lululemon offers a variety of clothing when it comes to training or just casual clothing for everyday wear. It is made for all ages and genders. Their website is very aesthetically pleasing with the way that they organize the pages with categories of men, women, accessories, shoes, studio, and even a category for gifts. When you hit a category, the page will open and offer you options of which type of fit you are looking for in that category. There are many types of clothing you can choose from and the range of sizes and colors they offer is amazing. On the side of the pages, there are options for you to choose your size, the color you are looking for, and the type of fit you want, this way the products shown will be custom to what you are looking for. At the bottom of the main page, the website has links you can use to see how this brand interacts with their community and they offer a link to inform you on their purpose and experience. Overall, this website is so organized and easy to navigate which supports my decision of telling you it is an amazing website.

     

Secondly, my example of a bad website is Shein. Shein is known for their inexpensive and cheap clothing that is not durable and is made of material that does not last long. When you first open their website, it is very overwhelming. It has way too many categories of product. I also feel as though this website is only targeted for young adults who wear cropped shirts and revealing clothing. Many of their products do not apply to older people. This website’s prices make you think the website is fake, and the reviews on their products are not good. They do not offer a plethora of colors or sizes like Lululemon does. It is very limited. Sometimes more than others, the website is a little slow and glitchy. In my opinion, the clothing is not very appealing and I would rather spend more money on clothes that will last me long on Lululemon than cheap clothing that does not last me at all on Shein.

    hi Camryn, I like that you are attacking Shein. I always see their ads on random websites and I see how cheap the clothes are and it just doesn't make any sense. I feel like some people say they have good clothes but it is hard to believe.

    Camryn,
    I have actually never ordered from Shein but have heard lots of mixed reviews. I do love Lululemon. I can see how they are the better choice. I also can agree that even though Lululemon can be expensive you will benefit from choosing them over Shein. You get what you pay for and with Shein being so cheap, their quality is not great. I think you did an amazing job with your smackdown!

    Hi Camyrn,
    I love that you chose Lululemon, one of my favorite stores, and Shein to compare. I use both websites and I would agree with you that Lululemon's website is very aesthetically pleasing while Shein really isn't. I have also experienced that Shein may be slow and glitchy at times. I 100% agree that I'd rather shop at Lulu for more money than at Shein for cheap clothes. Great presentation!

The Connected Educator - Chapter 4 - Camryn Juckett

         The chapter begins with explaining how sometimes you may have to change your values and beliefs to create connected learning with others. If you are not optimistic with things, you will never be open to view others opinions. That is not a great mindset to have, especially when you are involved in a connected learning community. There seems to be a lack of re-culturing and education on collaborative culture in today's world.           The chapter moves onto the topic of "Putting Relationships First'. "Fostering, nurturing, and maintaining positive, congenial relationships is the first step toward building collaborative cultures - in your school and in a more global connected learning community" (page 59). It is important that educational environments, such as schools keep congenial and collegial relationships. The slight difference between these two is congeniality is "the polite, friendly relationship we have with one anoth...

Web 2.0 Smackdown Presentation - Zoom - Camryn Juckett

     Presentation:   https://youtu.be/RDnWPoMWWvc Zoom is a great app for virtual  calls, whether it be for work, school, or even just another way to talk to many friends. It was created in 2011 by Eric Yuan. It is very easy to create a basic account, just by using an email and a password. Zoom offers many features as I showed in the video but some more fun features are playing games on there, watching a show with your friends on it together, and messing around with the virtual backgrounds. I am very familiar with Zoom because I used it for classes for almost two years when COVID was happening. Personally, Zoom is very easy to navigate and sometimes fun to use. It is very useful nowadays because some people still feel uncomfortable with going out in large groups, and also someone could be out sick but still be there virtually. Overall, Zoom is a very productive app for many people across the globe. I hope my basic run down of the app helps you guys!
