Question - Would you speak up if you saw someone being bullied online? Why or why not? Would you speak up if you saw someone being bullied in school? Why or why not?
Answer - To be fully honest, if I saw someone being bullied online it "DEPENDS". In most cases I would mind my own business because you never know if the person being bullied started it or not. But no one ever deserves to get bullied unless they are a trouble-maker themselves. But I would help the person being bullied. If I saw someone being bullied in school, no questions asked, I would immediately help them regardless if I know them or not. Bullies should be put in a school with other bullies so they could see how it feels in another person's shoes.

Question - How do yo think Delicious can help you find what is hot on the web?
Answer - I think Delicious can help me find what is hot on the web by its daily updates because of the "Popular Tags" link on the site. Underneath it, it has different type of criteria of interest of people who may visit the site as a whole. These tags include links such as "design, music, or art". Tags such as these can be very helpful to those surfers who is unfamiliar with the site.

Question - How do you feel when someone takes credit for something you said or did? Is this an acceptable thing to do?
Answer - I would feel very disrespected and upset that anyone would take credit for anything I have done or said because that is wrong and completely unacceptable. I took my time out and put great effort into my work or thoughts and for someone to come and take credit and wrong because I would never do nothing like that to no one. My effort is my time and my time is very valuable to me and I take my work very serious. SO this something very unacceptable to any cause.

Question - How do you use words (tags) to help you to organize and remember things?
Answer - You can use tags to help you to organize and remember things by using hyperlinks that would sometimes give you the definition or meaning of a word.

Question - Do you think that you can believe everything on the Internet? Why?
Answer - I absolutely know that you can not believe everything on the Internet because anyone can make a website. Anyone can put things on their site just for view rates. There are many people out here to just manipulate the minds of man. You can also say to bran wash us as well because people really have arguments about what they read or seen on the internet. Some websites can not be trusted because they use information they received and add on to what they have to make the information seem accurate. But only a real smart person would go to a well-known, trusted site and compare the information and only then will you find out what is accurate and what is not.

Question - Do you think that social networks appropriate resources for use in education? What are appropriate resources and where can they be found?
Answer - It's really 50/50 with that because some social networks do have information that would benefit your education. I do not think all social networks are bad, depending how they are used. Some people if they had access to social networks would not use them for the appropriate use. Students would be to focused on responding to messages and other things that aren't relevant to the task at hand. Appropriate resources could be found through google, yahoo, aol, or any search engine.

Question - How do you know if the information you find on line is accurate and truthful?
Answer - Well you do not know for sure the information online is true sometimes because people can put things on the internet just to get views and feed. I know that there are people who look on other sites and take information and ad lib to it just to get satisfaction or credit off others' hard work.

Question - Do you think that a parents should spy on their kid's online life? Is this good parenting or an invasion of privacy?
Answer - I think parents should not spy on their kid's online life because it is an invasion of privacy. Depending on the age, if your child is under the age of sixteen, then by all means spy on them. But if they are over the age of sixteen then there is no reason why a parent should be spying. With parenthood comes trust and if you don't trust your child then they should not be on the computer from the start. Parents should be more lenient with their children no matter what. Invasion of privacy is something a parent should know better doing.

Question - Some web sites hold very dangerous information, for example how to make a bomb. How can we control these Web sites?
Answer - We can control these websites by using parental control on websites which is not appropriate for students. If we have parental control it can and will block the websites that will stop our computer from entering the site. If these are websites accessed by high school students then most likely younger students will be able to access them. We do not need the internet to teach our youth things they should not be seeing. Parental control is the best way to control these web sites

Question - What do you think you should include or not include in your online profile (Google Profile) for this class?

Question - What do you think about people who say unkind things to others using a computer? How would you feel if someone said something mean to you on the telephone, in an email, or in an online discussion? Is there a difference between the telephone and the computer?
Answer - I think people who say unkind things to others using a computer are nothing but fake and scared people. Half of the time they say things over the phone, computer, or any other electronic devices because they are not they're not face to face with you. I would feel upset and mad if anyone say something out the way through any type of communication because if you can't say it to my face don't say nothing at all. There is a difference because when you are on the phone with someone. If they tell you something, you can hear in the way they say it if they saying in a mean way. Over the computer maybe they might mean in the way you think they are. So I rather someone talk to me face to face or on the phone rather than through computer.

Question - Why do you think that Netiquette is necessary for safe and secure online communication? What happens if someone breaks the Netiquette guidelines or social rules?
Answer - I think that Netiquette is necessary because it gives you rules and regulations that you can either choose to follow or not. There is a reaction to every action. So if you don't want to follow Netiquette then that's your choice but you will have to pay for whatever you do in cyberspace , whether if it's good or bad.

Question - What do you think the potential problems are with giving or sharing personal login information? When do you think it is okay to share this information? Why?
Answer - I think the potential problems are with giving or sharing personal login information is that people can use your personal information against you. For an example, people can use your personal information to access things as your social security, credit, etc. That's fraud and the only one to blame would be you because you should know better. I don't think it's never okay to give out your personal login information because the people you think can trust will be the main ones to stab you in the back meanwhile. So never share your information with anyone without state documented credentials that confirms the security of your information.

Question - Do you think that flaming is acceptable? What do you think is the right thing to do when someone Flames you or someone you know?
What advice would you give others?
Answer - I don't think flaming is acceptable is some cases. I know me, and if someone flames me on facebook or any site, then I know I'm going to flame them back. But if I feel that it would be a little personal then I would inbox them and tell them about themselves because never will anyone try to put me on the spot and think they getting away with it. Now the right thing to do would be to inbox them and talk to them one on one, not in open on site for billions of people to see. I would say that if you going to be nasty and rude to someone, then keep that between you and your rival. When you put stuff out there in the open, people take info and run with it and no one really wants their business out there for exposure to everyone.

Test Essay - When practicing Internet safety in school, teachers should keep an eye on students when they are on the Internet just as they would as if they were on a field trip! Students’ Internet use should be tailored to their ages. Random Internet browsing should NOT be allowed! Students on the Internet should have a specific purpose for being there! Teachers should check the history of visited sites as much as possible, especially if there is suspicion of students going to inappropriate sites. It is the teacher’s responsibility to be familiar with the division’s AUP (Acceptable Use Policy). So my thoughts are that teachers should take their jobs more safety and stop trying to be friends with their students and do what’s necessary to protect them.

Question - What do you think schools should be teaching teenagers concerning being good “cyber-citizens”?
Answer - I think schools should teach students learn to respect others' work saved on the computer because majority of the time you are sharing the computer(s) with fellow students. You should never touch other student's work because you never know how much effort and time that person put into their work. Students should never change anything or reassemble program(s) on the computer because you have no authority or permission to change what you didn't originally create. God-forbid you mess up or do something that can't be undone because then your parent/guardian would be fine to pay for the damage done. In ever computer or technology class in each school should enforce the rules of being a good “cyber-citizens”!

Question - If you are in an online gaming room and someone that you do not know asks you about personal information (same age as you-or close), what do you do?
Answer - I would not give out any personal information because little pieces of details can lead anyone to decipher many of unknown details about oneself. Personal information should remain personal especially to those of the unknown society. Me, personally wouldn't even hold a conversation to anyone I don't know because that's just stupid for anyone to give out your information to a stranger.

Question - How do you think you should engage in the highly collaborative and interactive Web 2.0 in a safe and responsible manner?
Answer - I think you should surf the web in safe and secure websites because certain sites you least think that can harm your computer really can. Make sure that you have an official protector on your computer. If some sites have a pop-up blocker or a site blocker most likely it's meant for you not to view on enter that website. A lot of people have their own likes and dislikes about certain apps on the web and some may download some that can unleash many viruses to your computer of any sort. So being aware of what you browse is the most responsible thing you can do to protect your computer.

Question - If you feel uncomfortable in any chat room, find something "a little weird" on Facbook/MySpace, or just think something is wrong. What do you think you should do? Why?
Answer - I think you should just log out of the chat room because 9 times out of 10 thig aren't normal. First I'll ask a certain question to verify my suspicion. If things confirm what I thought that wasn't gong good. I'll log out or report whats going on to the administration of the sit because if things are uncomfortable to you than it's going the same way to others that are on the site as well.

Question - Do you think that the dress code will enhance your learning experience? What do you plan to do differently this year to be more successful in this class and school in general?
Answer - I do think that the dress code will enhance my learning experience because its a comfortable attire that I enjoy wearing. It also gives each person the freedom to express their own opinion in fashion. My focus would be more on my work than what the next person is wearing because basically we all are wearing the same thing. I plan to focus and spend more time studying than fooling around unlike what I did last year. Keeping my focus on my school work and doing what's necessary for my education would result in my success of graduating high school.
