GADGET PROJECTSAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 2

By: Antonio Jose Mancuso

WHAT IS THE GALAXY NOTE II?The Galaxy Note II is a new product introduced by the electronic company Samsung.

This product was released on October 16th 2012.

This product is known as a jack of all trades.

It is officially known as a tablet phone.

It has the memory of a tablet with the capabilities of a cell phone. This phone has an android operating system. 

GALAXY NOTE II VS IPHONE 5 This phone was developed to

compete with the IPhone and apple products. According to gizmag.com , the leader in electronic gadget ratings, “its super-sized screen and innovative S Pen present a stark contrast to the iPhone’s barely-changed-since-2007 simplicity.”

In other words, it is an innovative product that can do many more things that the IPhone cannot. It can run 2 applications at the same time, you can share messages and media just by tapping phones together, and has a higher camera resolution than the IPhone 5. 

SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE II PURPOSE Many people believe that having a phone this big is not

necessary. Many people are proud owners of both IPhones and IPads. However, the convenience of having both a tablet and a

phone integrated and merged is very convenient. It can do many things such as hear the professors lecture

and show key points as the professor speaks, it has compatibilities to Microsoft office.

This product can be very useful to the field of education and may be ahead of its time.

LEARNING PLAN GALAXY NOTE II The Samsung Galaxy Note II is the gadget that I will be incorporating with

my learning plan. I personally am the proud owner of the Samsung Galaxy Note II since its release date on October 2012. The purpose of my lesson plan is to educate the National Pan-Hellenic Council Organizations at Frostburg State University about burn out. Many members of NPHC have this product because of how well it works. The more knowledgeable others that I will be looking forward to working with are Ronnie Hammond and Nyakeh Nyaley. Both are members of the National Pan-Hellenic Council. Both members have owned the product since October 2012. We each use this to effectively communicate to other organizations and it helps us to plan events effectively and efficiently. A major way to avoid burn out is by organizing time effectively and efficiently.

LEARNING PLAN GOALSGoals: 

Identify the features of the product.

Integrate the product to the NPHC organizations

Think of ways to further expand the product to the rest of Greek Life Organizations

CHALLENGES FACED WITH LESSON PLAN Since I am not a teacher, I decided to make up my own

lesson with people who are student leaders and fit the NPHC mold.

Materials: Samsung Galaxy Note II and of course NPHC Members

The objective is to use this to avoid burnout and schedule your life. Meetings were at 10pm. The picture below is someone who came early to further understand the product. He actually did push ups to avoid burn out. The other is someone who is organizing her schedule.
