Twenty-four students participated
in Living a Better Story, a service project aimed at helping people understand their importance in the process
of helping the community they live in.
The project ran from October 6 to
November 3 and included members
from the Texas A&M Aggie Blossoms, Bryan High Key Club, and many
other students. Together they raised
$839.02, which will be donated to different organizations around the community.
Living a Better Story (LABS) was
created by Mack Strange, a pastor
from Summitt, Tennessee. One Sunday he told the attendants to use some
of their own money on something that
they strongly believe in and change
it for the better. Times have changed
since LABS started, and has instead
shifted its focus on high school students to get them to have an active part
in serving their community. Strange
believes that each life has a story and
hopes this project helps students nd
their way.
Some of these students feel good
about their stories, Strange said.
Some of them do not. Some feel that
because of their family origin, family
history, geographic location, and community culture [that] their stories are
already written.
Although LABS is about helping the
community, it is also about showing
students that they can change their
story for the better through one life
at a time. One day at her after school
job at Subway, senior Regan Deville
noticed a homeless man
that was always walking around outside the
building.
He came in one day
and he asked a customer if he would buy him
dinner, Deville said. I
jumped in and offered
[to pay] instead.
Although Devilles original plan was
to create dog toys and sell them at local veterinary clinics and dog pounds
to donate to the deforestation prevention and animal cruelty awareness,
this unexpected experience gave her
a better understanding of what LABS
means. Giving back doesnt have to be
about a complicated process, it can be
a simple gesture and result in opening
minds, hearts, and hands to others in
need.
A lot of people think that if

Integrating
Technology
Technology has become an
integral part of education and
teachers must equip students
with the tools to succeed in their
future careers.
Each subject must assess the
best way to integrate technology
to promote learning and understanding.
Norseman staff members took
an in-depth look at technology
usage across campus and how
different teachers utilized it to
increase student learning.
Technology - Page 11
History
History may not seem like a subject where technology is
frequently utilized, but in the classroom technology is an
integral part of US history teacher Chad Cryer and World
Geography teacher Kelly Adams learning environments.
In Adams classes, the students arent just conned to
the typical worksheets and ll-in-the-blank notes, but frequently use iPads in the classroom to go over information.
The iPads allow students to access lots of information,
and they allow us to do a lot of multimedia type stuff that
keeps the kids interested, Adams said. Some of the different apps that they can use furthers their learning outside in
the classroom.
Adams doesnt enjoy solely lecturing the students and so
he uses the iPads to keep the students active in the lesson
and class.
When Im the one using the technology in a Powerpoint,
were limited to whatever I put up there, Adams said.
When we pull out the iPads, [the students] become more
Science
To most people, science is more associated with technology. In order for the
school to keep up with growing scientific technology in the science community
and in the classroom, physics teacher
Robert Richards uses up-to-date methods in his classroom to make things
both interactive and easier for the students.
In Richards class, the students use
generators, which are computer simulators to clear up their data and reduce
the level of difculty in physics.
The students nd the generators
to be very useful, Richards said. The
generators are helpful and give precise
data, while also taking care of a lot of
things that human error can make bad
data for.
In modern times, students are more
accustomed to the use of technology,
and using the generators helps bring
Art
Students have always used tools, stencils, paper,
paint and other media to create pieces of art, but
technology is increasingly becoming a part of that
process. Technology is being used in art classrooms
as a way for teachers to increase learning as well as
a way for students to create new pieces.
We currently use a document camera, art
teacher Jennifer Easterling said. We are able to
video what we are doing for a piece of art, so we
can demonstrate and then project it on to a large
screen so all students are able to view it at once.
Through grants or awards teachers have also
been able to acquire technology to use in the classroom. Students are able to use equipment like
iPads to make the artistic process easier and more
streamlined.
I won a grant for a set of iPads a couple of years
ago, so my classes are able to use them to reference images and look those up or to help draw and
combine images to create art, Easterling said. It
makes things quite a bit faster.
After creating a piece most students would like
to display their work for others to see, but because
of the media used in some pieces that can be difcult. Teachers have began to use digital portfolios

English
In most English classrooms, learning
usually happens through note-taking and
bookwork, but in Lisa Prejeans English
classroom, the students are doing quite a
bit of their working with laptops from the
schools COW (Computer on Wheels).
I use them on a daily basis, Prejean
said. It allows students to work on things
in class and in google docs so they can
share assignments with me. This allows me
to give them timely feedback electronically
on something theyre working on, and they
can access it from home.

Math
Though the means of teaching mathematics have transferred from chalkboards, to white boards, to overheads and
projectors the platform the problems are written on does
not add value to students lives. Applying advancements in
technology so students gain understanding through function is the true purpose behind the technological push.
The technology being used in the classroom ranges from
calculators and interactive whiteboards to online notes
and students cell phones. Some teachers record their notes
either through video les or scanned images to help students ll in the gaps when they miss information.
I have many students in extracurricular [activities] that
Foreign Language
Students are required to take at least two years of a
foreign language to graduate on the recommended plan.
Students may struggle with acquiring a second language in high school and many teachers have started
using websites that include speaking, listening, writing,
and reading to help students practice using the language
and impact learning in a positive way.
Duolingo is a program that we use once a week,
Spanish teacher Alex Morales said. Every teacher gets
the COWs (Computers on Wheels) and we usually do 50
points a week. The program is a lot like Rosetta Stone,
but its free and weve seen a huge difference with the
students using Duolingo because we enjoy doing it.
Spanish teacher Allison Robertson also takes advantage of the internet in assisting her students with language acquisition.
I use edmodo as a way for students to turn in work
and take opinion polls, Robertson said. When students
interact with the programs, they interact with the material and create something thats new or original and then
are able to share it immediately with an authentic audience, which is better than showing static media thats not
interactive.
Not only websites utilized in foreign language classrooms, but other forms of technology are also used like
smartboards, laptops, and ip cameras.
I do commercials, Morales said. They use their
phones to lm themselves teaching commands in Spanish and then they can email it to me or bring it in to show
the class and make a full production with iMovie.
Teachers have always worked to nd a way to engage students, technology has only made that process simpler as
it pushes students to think for themselves and create and
understand on a new level.
Theyre forced to learn information and apply it right
away while making a lot of small choices which add up to
really revealing what they understand, Robertson said.

Florida Georgia Lines new release proves duo Nickelback of country music
Andrew Buck,
Staff writer
It may seem premature to declare
the worst album of 2014 while theres
still a few days left in the year, but this
year I make an exception for Florida
Georgia Lines Anything Goes. Florida Georgia Line is a country duo from
Nashville that specializes in a newer
breed of country music. Coined in
2013 by Jody Rosen as Bro-country,
this frankenstein of a genre is the
sour mixture of hip-hop, pop, rock,
and whatevers left of country music
as each of the contending genres stir
together a repulsive witches pot of terribleness.
The rst track, Anything Goes is
an exposition into just how much of
a disappointment this album ends
up being. Two seconds into the song,
youre immediately smacked in the
face with the classic over-inected
modern country twang of Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley. aaaaaaaaalabama-on the boombox, ba-ee-by /
bought t gedda lil boondock craeezae! -music- li-yall betta tern this
one up!
After turning it down, I continued
to drudge through some pretty heavy
stuff. Admittedly, the rst track caught
my attention. Its densely mixed sun-
left behind. The duo manages to overimpose this smacky, nasally mutated
southern rasp to a deafening overbearance upon any other redeeming
quality the music may have in the instrumentation, successfully defacing
an otherwise standard musical composition with some drunken wailers
pickup truck and whatever happened
last Friday night.
Its difcult to tell whether this album is an outlandish defect in the
inconsistent spectrum of the evolution of country music. Despite the
fact that the duo appear to be genuine
southerners who truly believe in what
theyre producing, the reception from
country music critics has not been as
appreciable. The magazine Saving
Country Music gave a one-word review, and it was not positive. Country
Perspective gave the album a whopping 0 out of 10, hoping that soon
America will nally give up on Florida Georgia Line and give them the
Nickelback treatment because Florida
Georgia Line is truly the Nickelback
of country music. This statement is
nothing short of the complete truth, as
the producer for Anything Goes is the
same man that has close ties to Nickelback, producing several of their albums since their formation in college.

job of pulling the audience in and making them believe that havoc was unfolding.
Another aspect of this show that was great to experience was seeing students from each elementary
and middle school campus in Bryan ISD in the production. BISD makes an effort to bring everyone in
the district together and this show unied students
and families from all over Bryan. I could tell from
the audience that these children looked up to the
high school students in the play and were enjoying
every minute of the performance. Hopefully, the
unity will spread into other departments in Bryan
ISD and take the Be the One motto to the next level.

speak out against our government. Doing so is actually good, because the power
comes from the people, and it
is comforting to know that we
have a voice in our country.
However, it seems that the
trend today has expanded beyond healthy expression into
pointless complaining. One
of my teachers once told me
that every time I criticize an
argument, I have to provide
a solution to the problem, or
Im doing nothing more than
exacerbating the problem
without coming any closer to
solving it. It seems that many
Americans today are more
willing to complain than actually try to come up with solutions themselves.
Even though there are some
things that people have a
right to be upset about, those
emotions should be used to

While I dont necessarily agree with
having such high salaries or prize
pools, if someone can earn millions for
playing a physical sport, I see no reason why prize pools cant be that high
for virtual sports.
While there are obvious differences
between physical sports and esports, at
heart they have the same ideas behind
them. Both are competitive in nature
and have a goal to see what team or who
is the best at a game or activity. Also
while there are strict rules in physical
sports, they can be broken purposefully or accidentally, but in esports,
since everything is digital everything is
fair as no one can break the computers rules (at least in competitive play
which is over a Local Area Network).
Both are mainly for entertainment and
also bring people together to support a
