Journal Entry#8

             What I found surprising about thus unit was that there is a lot of rules about copy-right. I mean its could that there is but most of them are just common sense, like just don;t steal and take credit for someone else work. To me this unit is straight forward but the only thing that I found confusing was actually the rules of copy right, even though I said they are mostly common sense some are worded differently and to is kind of confusing. I think that the Copyright manual is good to have for students. The website Need Help Now is a very good site for people to go to if they are being bullied. The biggest issue with copyright  and young people is that we simply just to really thing that anything will happen to us. The biggest issue when it comes to cyber bullying and privacy is that young people are mean now days and just think that what they do to people is OK and nothing will happen to them.

Assignment #2 Cyber Bullying (and privacy)

              Two actions that can violate someones privacy are non-consensual distribution of an intimate image, and the other is voyeurism. some of the other sections are Acts that Make Others Feel Unsafe, an example of that is harassment, another section is Acts That Hurt the Reputation of an Other Person, an example of that is impersonation. Three places where you can report a potential crime is the police, cypertip.ca and also options other than reporting like calling kids help phone.

              On the main page of need help now website one of the two sections that I have chosen is help a friend is when you can recognize when a friend is doing well and you can notice when they change behavior whether it is in person or online and being concerned about your friend health.

              The other section I chose is dealing with peers which could be cyberbullies, alienation and other things. Some things to to help you with these things are: Do not respond, delete the bully on social networks, block the bully from contacting you, review and adjust your privacy settings, change your account, save the messages and then contact the police for example to have evidence against them and also, tell someone about the problem. When watching the three videos on the website one thing that I found interesting is that one the first video I thought that it was that girl who was being bullied but it was her friend. A way to share the #changethestory campaign could be to share on social media and get the word out there.

Journal Entry #7

             In this unit I didn't find anything that surprising one thing that might have been surprising is that small towns can have fast internet. Some things that was hard to do was finding reasons for for and against topics, I struggled to find the last reason for each topic. Yes I do think that everyone deserves fast internet speeds because why wouldn't people deserve it. Sometimes I do feel concerned about my privacy especially on Facebook when other peoples accounts get hacked, you can prevent it by changing some of your privacy settings and also don't share your passwords to anyone. No I don't worry about what I post when I was younger because I din't post anything hat could come back and get me in trouble. The biggest issue when it comes to young people and digital access and privacy is that we as young people don't really think about what we do on the internet also we overlook privacy and think that nothing will happen to our accounts 

Assignment #1 Fast Internet Speeds for Small Towns/ Assignment #2 Privacy Please

Fast Internet Speeds for Small Towns-

     In rural communities some internet connections are 100mbps for only $76 a month. These communities are getting faster internet speeds because of smaller companies who use fibre optic cables. The community of Harrison is fortunate because there owners are very forward thinking and provide the best technology possible. The community of Olds pay for their fibre network by having residents sign up and pay $120 a month or lower speeds for less money. In Stratford the royal bank set up a $400 million data center which threaten the big company providers. Bell installed fibre optics to Toronto homes and businesses with fibre. Small towns and communities need high speed more then ever to keep residents and employers from fleeing to hooked-up cities. The Federal government supplied $305 million to ensure nearly every household to at least 5 megabit-per second broadband.


Privacy Please -

   
      Our medical records should be all digitally stored online for all medical professionals to access within the hospital when needed 

For - It would make less work for secretaries. Easier to find things. Also your medical information is in order.

Against- People may be able to hack into them. If something happens to the computer it may all be erased. The medical professional may change things on someones profile. 
   
      School report cards and daily attendance should be digital and passwords should be issued for parents to log in and check results.

For-Less work for teachers. No confusion when it comes to losing a page. Parents can know how you are doing in school at all times

Against- The system could wipe out and all the info could be erased. Someone could gain access to their parents account and change something.  Parents could forget their passwords.

       Schools in 2020 should be closed and teachers and students should begin learning in virtual classrooms using digital technology at home.

For- Kids don't have to travel to school. Learning would be in the comfort of you own home. Teachers would not have to send kids to the principle

Against- Kids might not do there work. Kids could just shut off there computer and not do the class. There would be no discipline for students who act bad.
