Example A https://images.app.goo.gl/PmG4hqjLauFqvcZ46

Example A is a credible source because of its relation to the benefits that the toothbrush has and also explaining its design giving the buyer a reason to want to purchase the product. Example B https://images.app.goo.gl/vdR8BVFwvEYGeTT1A is an example of a source that is not credible because it says that “Tide’s got what women want” which is a controversial statement in which many women have different opinions and may prefer a different brand over Tide. Example C https://images.app.goo.gl/2DkQWrJX2qkQoPcU7 is an example of attractive advertising because it is something that is like a product that companies will design for consumers to want to spend money on their product time and time again.

“What kind of student am I?” This question is very vague because for as long as I have been in school and taking college courses since I was a junior in high school and this being my first year of being with a four year institution but, coming in with a sophomore status makes me feel like ODU should be handing me my bachelors degree this spring! All in all though, college has been very eye opening to me and made me realize my potential in the classroom helping me to define myself as a student. Before I took the assessment, I have always perceived myself to be the type of student that may not do the work on time always, but it will get done. However, I have felt that lately my memory has not been at its best, due to the fluctuations in the environments that I have been in and it sometimes has an effect on my work. Based on my score from the self-efficacy test, I scored a 26 which I think is very accurate to me as a student. I find myself always getting distracted, or feeling burnt out from an assignment or two and I can rely on my self at certain times to get my work done.

After reading this weeks’ assigned reading, I think that there is definitely a connection between music and relationships. My reasoning behind this is because when you listen to a love song you like and it talks about things that you may want to experience while in love like marriage, surprise dates, being showered with gifts, and your significant other expressing their love to you. This article has also helped me realized that I have similar taste in a certain genre as my cousins since we all mostly listen to R&B music, we share our playlists and text each other songs that we think the next may like. For example, I feel that a song that describes me is Aura by Mariah the Scientist and Over it by Summer Walker.
