1. 1. What is the primary idea of the content in the articles?
How to use a map-based GPS car navigation system . One type of GPS (Global Positioning System)
navigation system involves a monitor that displays a map; the other kind uses voice recognition and a
text display of the street you're on. Car navigation capabilities depend on a global positioning system,
known as GPS, which uses a network of satellites with radio transmitters. For a car navigation system
to work, there have to be at least four GPS satellites near enough for it to pick up a signal.
2. Do you think the individual sections and headings in the document (articles) clearly represent the
idea that was communicated. Explain the reasons behind your comments.
Yes, I do. Because the sentence was short, clear, and simple. Short, clear, and simple sentences are
usually more effective than those which are long and complex. Procedure is written, so it was easy to
understand me. But I want administrator to put a lot of images and figure.
3. What details are included in the articles?
For a car navigation system to work, there have to be at least four GPS satellites near enough for it to
pick up a signal. GPS satellites each have atomic clocks and radio transmitters on board. Once the
car's GPS calculates its position, it can use a map program to find its way to a new location.
Calculating location. Because a car is never located exactly the same distance from each satellite, its
GPS gets signals from nearer ones slightly before more distant ones. The car
navigation system also features a sophisticated built-in map, which knows precisely where streets are
located on the surface of the earth. When you enter the address of your desired destination the map
plots a course along the streets to that location. If you get off course, the GPS system knows and plots
a new course.
4. Was there anything that was confusing? If so, what is it?
No, there wasn't.
5. What is good about the writing? Why is it good?
This site is able to go similar article. There are many site that it is able to link. And there are
references,resources, who can help, photo credit. Procedure is written, so it was easy to understand
me. But I want administrator to put a lot of images and figure.
6. Are there any errors that need to be corrected?
No, there aren't.
7. What specific suggestions for improving the articles can you make?
I want administrator to put many images and lists. If administrator puts many images and lists, we are
able to more understand articles. Articles is able to be more short, clear and simple. If articles is more
short, clear and simple, we are able to more understand articles.
8. Identify three basic differences between how your group would author a similar
document and how this author authored it (as you see it in the link).
1.We want to write many summaries and conclusions.
2.We want to write the sentence that it is easy to understand.
3.The articles was short. But the sentence of our group was often much too long. So we want to
write short sentence.
9. Study the following video carefully and then summarize 10 major points that you were able to
understand.

1.How to track a cellphone using GPS.
2. 2.There are a couple of different ways to do this and all of them source from a couple of different
things.
3.The first one being whether or not your cellphone is enabled, the hardware inside the phone is
enabled for GPS location and the second being whether or not your service provider allows
GPS location
4.A fact that Sprint Nextel has a service package on their monthly data plan.
5.It's called Family Locator.
6.It's called for $10 a month on each of your lines basically
7.For the iPhone there is a piece of technology called MobileMe.
8.We have to hit a button every time you want to change the location, see if that phone has
moved.
9.It will tell you where the phone is but in terms of tracking the phone it's not really that
efficient.
10.The best bet would be to use something like The Family Locator product that Sprint has
available.
10. Study the following video carefully and then summarize 10 major points that you were able to

3.Find out where you are currently you want to hit this little button right here.
4.That's the first task and you can see that that is not supery doopery close.
5.The closer that the map feature is and the more information it gets over time you will see
6.Obviously an incredibly handy feature.
7.We turn it on.
8.We hit the target.
9.We hit the woop.
10.Zoom into it exactly where we are.
