Finally, Some Questions

Straight-forward Questions

1. According to Herbert Simon, what does information "consume"?
2. On fanfiction.net alone there are over 600,000 Harry Potter fanfiction stories, and Harry Potter is only one of many original works which has inspired fanfiction. True or False?
3. On the Prezi about Fan Culture that Sarah and I made, Sarah talked about fan charities. One of these charities has collected well over $1,000,000. True or False?

Essay Questions

1. Fanfiction is one aspect of the creative fan and remix culture found online. This sort of recreation can be a productive creative outlet and an abundant source of entertainment, despite its problematic aspects.
2. We go to religious school, so it's unsurprising that many of us had something to say about how our beliefs affect our view of the digital culture. Learning doesn't have to be just secular. Through the Holy Spirit, Jesus Christ can teach us about both spiritual things and secular things.
(There were numerous other posts that discuss similar ideas, but this post does a good job of briefly discussing the subject while still being personal and interesting. I also remember where to find this particular post at the moment.)
