= What is a most educated University in the USA? = by Amira

**Introduction**
"Amira!" my sister shouted. "YES!" I replied. " I have trouble choosing a college. I think you should start searching because later on your gonna have a big problem choosing." So I thought to myself. So I started wondering what was the most educated University in the USA. I started to make research. I thought to myself what website talks focus on school. A light bulb just popped out of my mind. I thought of PRINCETONREVIEW.COM. Later on that night I went to princetonreview.com and looked for an educated University in the USA. I think that this will help me later on in life.

**Body**
On a Saturday afternoon I started to make search for my I- search paper. I went to princetonreview.com and there wasn't any good information that would've helped me with choose an educated University. So, I told my teacher Ms. Brownstone that I really couldn't find anything good online and every time I search my topic it would come up about books when I really didn't need anything about books. So she told me I had two things I could do. The first thing was that I should interview Peter Wilson our College ad visor. The second thing that i could do is when i search something i should type this and put it in the search engine. College +University +best -book.

So when I went back to my seat I did the second choice she gave me. I went to google.com and in the search engine I put College +University +best -book. I found so much good things on the best unvierstiy and colleges that were really educated. to be continued. Later that night I called Andrea and asked her if she started to make research for her I -search paper. She said " NO! I'm doing my interview for my i search paper." she replied. "OH MY GOD! I don't know who to interview! Can you please hep me?" " Sure what do you need help with?" she mummbled! " She told me " Amira just ask someone who has experienced and went to University." "OKAY! Thanks so much!" I replied. " Your welcome!" " Okay talk to you later!" I responded.

So I started to wonder who in my family that i know that went to college or to a University. So I remembered when my cousin called my mom telling her that she got expected to the most educated unviserty in Boston. So I called my cousin Samah. she didn't answer her phone. So I asked my mother what she told her. She said that she got into Hardver. So I started to make research on Hardver. I heard it is a good place to go and get your educated. I went to google and typed Hardver into the search engine. So my sister came and asked me what I was doing and she was make your life easy and take the number and call them up. I took the number and dialed it. Some lady answered.

Interview with a College Counselor Amira: Hi Sarah: Hi. May I help you with something? Amira: Yes I got to write a report for school. Sarah: How may I help you with that? Amira: Well my topic is Whats the most educated Unviersity in the USA? So i want I wanna Know if Hardver is a good and most educated unviersity in the USA? Sarah: Well theres many unviersity that are most educated in the USA and there many opinions. But I think Hardver is a really educated place. Amira: So that means many people don't agree this is a most educated unviersity. Sarah: Yes. Amira: Thanks so much. Sarah: Your Welcome. Amira: Have a nice day. Bye Sarah: You too. Bye

**Conclusion**
Well from interviewing Sarah this Parent Coordinator and making research on Hardver. So I guess the unvierstiy i'm going to chose is Hardver. This I search paper is going to be helpful alot later on in life. I told my parents that I already found a most educated Universtiy in the USA. They were like you still got time. I was like okay but ill just us it if I have no time. They were like okay. I just walked in my room and was like ahhhh yeshh i finally did something really important thats gonna help me good time later. So I was so proud of myself. It was my first time seeing myself proud about myself. I was so tired that I fall asleep.

 * || Benefits || Drawbacks ||

Tradeoffs: To start, VoiceThreads produce a huge drawback because with just the voice thread there aren't images and/or videos to help guide the viewer along if some aren't included. This is what makes video, webpage, and photographs beneficial, you can see usually along with written information of what the topic is about. The good thing about sound media is that you can hear information dictated to you without having to read different information. Drawbacks for making webpages or blogs is that for some users these forms of multimedia are harder to maneuver than somthing such as a stand-still power point. My aim is to make a webpage but even with its drawbacks make it the easiest to use as possible.
