Lesson 11: Wrap Up


  • Describe your learning experience in one word or in one sentence. We may use your words to promote 11.5 Cosas learning activities to others.
I think I have finally completed the 11.5 Cosas.

Lesson 10 Challenge

Write a paragraph about one local and one state or federal government website you explored. How do you think mobile technology will change people’s relationship to government access and services? Will having government services and elected officials “on the go” make us more (or less) democratic as a society?


Texas.gov has a graphically inviting website and easy-to-read divisions of the most popular services. One drawback: It does not open pages from other sites in a new window when clicking many links. Mobile technology improves access to government services for many people, but there is still a percentage of persons not using smartphones who are disenfranchised. California Lt Governor Gavin Newsom discusses how technology can democratize society in the book Citizenville. This is a good topic that merits more research.
