Social Networking :)

Us teenagers don't really communicate like our parents used to thirty years ago. Facebook, Hotmail, Twitter, Myspce and more are the new and entertaining was for us to communicate today. All of our persona is online well, most of it. When we communicate online is to talk about what we would talk on the phone and stuff like that. Also there is the bad part which is to be bulling or harassing people and telling them bad and mean things.They had have been conflicts online with many people, like insulting them. This way of bulling does not make teenagers more popular by bulling people online. Some people are bullies on the internet because they are afraid to tell the others the insults in person, so they have another resource, which is the internet. In conclusion they are many good and bad things about the internet you just have to know how to use it and make decisions on how you use it because you might hurt peoples feelings.

Digital Media In Schools :)

The digital media in schools is very helpful to do our assignment that teachers give us. I really think that the internet at school is very good for us. In one part of the video there was this teenage guy who was saying that he felt like he was cheating by getting most of the information from the internet and not from a book. Teachers and parents are really taking this in a bad way, yes they were teenagers at some point, but they didn't grow up with this resource. Also this is our way to do our homework, we already got used to it. I don't think that the guy who said that in the video should feel like he is cheating. My reason for that is because its not his fault to have the internet resource and we grew up like that and its actually the internet is a better resource than a boring book. This is also a very fast way to get our homework and reading done. In conclusion I think that the internet at school is important and not bad in any way.

Internet At Home :)









I think that who ever produced this video is trying to tell us that the internet is dangerous and bad for us teenagers. I think that the target for this video is the parents because they are trying to influence them to make there teenage kids quit the internet resource. The internet at home can be dangerous and helpful in many ways. Like if per say a kid is uploading inappropriate pictures online that is bad, but it also depends how are parents and other people who see it, take the situation. Also there is some exaggeration from our parents when they want to invade our space online, like asking us our passwords or going on our private things while we are in school. Another thing that can also be dangerous on the internet is talking to people you don't know that's one of the parts that parents are most concerned about.

Part 2 :)

The teacher that entertains me the most is Mr. Whitten, because he makes jokes and at the same time does a good job at teaching us the material; the bad part is that we concentrate too much on his jokes and sometimes miss the focus of what he is trying to teach us.
I have mixed thoughts on whether or not he should feel guilty because on one hand it is cheating he is doing less work then was assigned to him; but on the other hand it is the new technology and he is doing the most with the resources that are most easily available to him.

Computer At Home


Today we saw a video about how tenagers now at days use the computer much. In my home I use the computer the most but compared to my classmates im one of the least ones who use it. That reason is beacuse my mom dosent like me being on the computer that much. In my home there is one single computer which is upstairs at a desk. I don't have one on my room neither I have a laptop. the computer is basically used for getting mjy homework done and for communication on facebook, hotmail meesenger, and more. The computer is much different than other forms of communication beacuse we use it too get emails, you can also watch tv,etc. In conclusion I use the computer to comunicate but not as much as others.
