Good vs Bad Websites

             The websites I chose for my app smackdown were Amazon and Temu. Both of these sites are known for having a wide variety of products for their customers to choose from. I chose Amazon to represent a good website and Temu to represent a bad website. There are major differences between these two sites as proof of which one is good, and which one is bad. For starters the customer ratings for Amazon is 4.3 out of 5 stars with 82% of their customers rating the website 4 stars or more. Temu has an average rating of 2 out of 5 stars. This is one example of the dramatic differences between the two websites and how satisfied their customers are with their experience dealing with the websites. The second thing that stood out to me that exemplified the reality of these websites was that Temu has not been verified by the Better Business Bureau. Temu has gained recognition because of their extremely low prices, but most customers don't realize that they are getting what they are paying for. This website has a lot of negative comments and reviews surrounding it, as well as open investigations. Amazon on the other hand is a very trustworthy website that is surrounded by more positive reviews than negative.

Zoom

      Zoom is a very helpful tool meant to help people connect in a professional manner from different locations. This video chat was a vital part of continuing my education during the pandemic. My whole class could login, despite being in different locations and even states, and watch a lecture from our professor. Companies even went as far as having job interviews on zoom instead of having people come in. Although, for the most part the hardest part of covid has passed, people are still relying on zoom to help them stay connected with friends, family, teachers, and potential employers.      Zoom offered so much more than educational purposes for me and my family though. As my grandmother was one of 9 children, who have all moved around the country with family it can be hard to see them all the time. Zoom allowed my family to connect with our aunts and uncles while keeping a safe distance from them, and even after covid just gives us the resources to stay in touch. This virtual confer

  Chapter 6     Having a personal learning network is very important for a business in society today. We can easily find valuable information by looking up a business or person online, and we want to make sure that the best information comes up. This chapter emphasizes how to build your digital profile with a company, business, or even a personal profile that is available to employers. "Knowledge, learning, and innovation can be managed within virtual networks and communities and then leveraged to amplify learning for all," (Nussbaum-Beach & Hall, 92). These connections are important for making a name for a person's business or to maintain a positive and formal profile.      Working in a retail store, I know it is important to post our sales and new items we received. My business had to create an Instagram which was perfect as most of our customers were middle and high school students. It is important which platforms we chose to reach out to a certain audience.

                Building relationships is extremely important in any career or business. A healthy relationship leads to trust, friendship, and respect. "Fostering, nurturing, and maintaining positive, congenial relationships is the first step toward building collaborative cultures," (p. 59) These relationships can help boost your business and improve relationships with those who are not aware of the business. It is important to care about other people's needs and interests when in your career. As the book states we need to "put people's needs at the forefront," with a future career in criminal justice, the people matter.                Being in criminal justice we have to respect people and earn their trust if we want them to open up to us. There can be multiple reasons a police officer needs to build trust such as- police and community relations helps lower crime rates, police need a victims' statement about a crime that took place, or the police are l
