Netiquitte quiz

Jules has walked away from a lab computer without logging off. Trish sits down and, still logged in as Jules, sends inflammatory e-mail messages out to a number of students and posts similar messages on the class newsgroup.
Trish is sending mean emails under somebody else's account. I think it is terrible that somebody would do that because any info on the web can be stolen or looked at by anyone giving the person who sent those letters a bad reputation. Another sanrio without computers would be note passing between people and pretending a person wrote it when they really didn’t. A way to solve this problem is to make sure you wait for your computer to completely turn off to prevent any issues.

Lester sends e-mail to the entire student body inviting them to a BYOB party at his house while his parents are out of town. Lester receives a message from a system administrator calling him in for a meeting with school officials. He objects because he feels that his email is his own private business.
Lester sent  an email that the school saw, to all his friends about an unsupervised party. I think he is partially correct about his privacy but he needs to understand nothing is safe on the web. This could happen just as easily as a gossip scenario, where this info leaked out through the school.

Web 2.0 project Module 2

 This is a video of how to get onto sweet search my web 2.0 project. Sweet search is a safe search engine for kids that blocks any game websites or websites that have nothing to do with educational values. Other features it contains is a social studies website that gives you the latest and the oldest news. This would be good in a class because teachers would not have to worry as much about kids goofing off or seeing things they aren't supposed to.

Unit 3 Google app project

Google app project.

Our assignment in e-kids was to find an educational Google app. Mine was aviary. A music and art program, designed to create and edit virtually any image or music on your computer. Not only can you edit but you can also start from scratch making your on songs or images from your creativity. If this was to be used in class it could offer more ways to let kids branch out and discover new things. Aviary is also free making it easier to fit in the schools budget, and since its powered by Google its with the school contract. Its easy to find and takes less than a minute to load. I hope this program is used more often in our creative and preforming arts program at our school

teacher assignment

My teacher assignment was to make an example prezi for the 6th grade social study's class presenting the different traditions of Christmas in america through a prezi.I had to explain what was a religious tradition and what wasn't. I also had to explain each traditions origin.I worked a total of 10 hours on this project from presenting and creating the prezi. I created this with Mr.Harvey and presented it to his first core. After I presented I aided the students in creating there own prezi. Mr.Harvey said I did a great job but could have been more specific in the prezi.

tedx youth day event

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojC9mUvOEgY    This is a link to our Ted-X presentation. Our group spent about 2 months preparing for this event and we worked on it almost every day during e-kids. The presentation was on social networking and cyber bullying. We tried to stress the importance of bullying through a skit and Prezi. It was a fun and exciting event that was broadcasted on the internet. When I preformed I got nervous and stumbled on the first few words but I quickly gained back my confidence and said each word after that perfectly. The next time I present this I want to fell confident and not stumble.
