The fall of 2002 has brought many adventures, one being my enrollment in Communication Disorders 315, a computer networking course. My expectations of the class were unclear; however, I knew it consisted of research. August 28, 2002 marked the day in which our class met for the first time in person and from that point on we depended primarily on technology to communicate with our teacher and classmates. Throughout the last two and a half months a lot of research, writing, thinking, time, and energy have taken place to construct a piece of work referred to as a Multigenre Research Project (MRP). The MRP contains several genres or writings all focused on the same topic. The genres are written in different voices to allow one to explore different points of view, thus, allowing different audiences to be addressed as well.

By completing the MRP, I feel much richer in my thinking and learning. I also feel more confident in myself. One of the most important aspects of this project to me was the realization of being a lifelong learner. In todays society technology is changing from day to day making the world more easily accessible, right from your fingertips.
