I like the recipe sharing example, too.<br /><br />Just fix "keep" to "kept" and "share" to "shared":<br />Information can be kept to ourselves, but if one of my girlfriends would like to know how to make a recipe I brought to a dinner party, I can share it with her. <br /><br />Although I shared the information with her, I will still have the information and know how to make the recipe.Lilia Murrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05843958311373855616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7442418216973639999.post-55843756012582565262011-09-12T20:24:56.042-07:002011-09-12T20:24:56.042-07:00Amanda, it is such a joy reading your posts! You ...Amanda, it is such a joy reading your posts! You are an excellent writer and will be great in public relations. I like how you don't just summarize what was said in class or in the article. Instead, you expand on it with personal reflections or your own examples. Your diffusive example of high school gossip spreading is a great one. This lets me know you really grasped these concepts. Just change these few things:<br /><br />Since you're listing them, change the semi-colon to a colon after "information," so it reads:<br />"Harlan Cleveland developed seven characteristics of information: human, expandable,..."<br /><br />Add an "s" after "animal" so it's plural (This theory is arguable because animals...)<br /><br />"Once a person hears about or develops a new idea, they tell someone else, whether it is for their benefit or someone else's."---Reword this since it's not a given that all ideas are automatically shared with other people. For instance, I can have an idea and keep it to myself and never utter a word. <br />What the article was trying to convey was that information can't be exchanged as a "this for that" transaction. Even if money passed hands, the person with the original idea, story, etc. will still have that information. He/she never loses it. It is just shared by two people.<br /><br />Delete the "d" in "realized" in the last sentence.<br /><br /><br />Well done!Lilia Murrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05843958311373855616noreply@blogger.com
