Bi-Weekly Blog Post #3

My week so far has sucked. I'm confused in almost all my classes. I have a big project for my college class and a big test coming soon. I don’t understand my math and I haven’t had homework in History so I'm freaking out because we normally have something. On Wednesday my head and stomach have been killing me and it still is. So this week has sucked a lot.


This week we learned about online relationships and interaction with people. Some of the terms we learned were online predator, risky, manipulate, and stereotype. Online predator is a commonly used term for someone who uses the Internet to develop inappropriate relationship with kids or teen. Risky means potentially harmful to one’s emotional or physical well-being. Manipulating is when you try to influence someone to do something they might not otherwise do, for one’s own benefit. Stereotype is a popular belief about a group of people, based on assumptions that are often false.


Also this week we learned so new  2.0 tools. Chogger, Animoto, and makebeliefscomix. Chogger is a website where you can make you own comic strip, You can draw out your own designs or even add your own pictures. Makebeliefscomix is another website where you make your own comic strips. On this one you can add pictures and little items to make it more real. You have a limit on three slides though. On Animoto you can make a 30 second clip about what ever. You can add backgrounds, music, pictures, and text. You can upgrade it to get a better experiance. 


I really like Chogger the best. On Chogger you have more choices on slides and different styles. You can draw or even take your own pictures and add it. You can even get photos off Google and use them. The only bad part is you can’t save it, so you have to finish it all at once.

This week our digital literacy was risky relationships. Risky relationships are online relationships with people. You don’t know if you can trust that person 110%. This digital literacy can affect me a lot. From now on I will watch what I do and post online because anyone can see it or forward it to other people.
