Review 9/28/10
For these 6 weeks, i have learned a lot in this multi media class. Now I understand a bit more of the mac computers and i can control them better, there not as confusing and i can now even flip a picture if its on backwards. Also i can now know how to protect my identity and all my own information in the computer. Like making avatars instead of putting your own picture or putting a different nickname instead of your name and even keeping everything thats not necessary in private. Also something important he had to learn was about plagiarism. It is very serious than what you think. Also about whats right and whats not right in the email like sending flaming emails back instead of reporting it. Stock photography is also a bad thing because the pictures your getting aren't yours ant they could be copyrighted. There are some of websites to get free stocking images.Also, there are citations we gotta know about so we can make our information easier. Next, i also learned how to use pages and how to make a project out of it. Since we gotta talk about a country, i chose Japan and talking about it and making a brochure also in pages. I would say its just of way of making a project in pages and learning how to use its stuff in it at the same time. Sometimes we have to comment on other peoples work or write hat we think would be better or what we like and it does help all of us in one way by adding what you think is useful and maybe some of their ideas they recommend you.

9.24.10
today I checked other peoples work and commented on some. I also just started on my brochure. Then i graded myself.
My Personal Self Grading
Cover:
I give myself a 4 because i think it does have everything that you need to get four points on the cover.
Table of Contents:I would give myself a 4 because it also has
everything that asks for to get four points on it.
Work log: I would give myself a 4 because it has 3 initial design sketches, the explanation of them and it stays with my document's style.
Bibliography: I would give myself a sad 2 because its only in the MLA format, and the bibliography is present but I really don't get about the alphabetical order part, maybe like an extra point for being in the document's style.
Bibliography:I would give myself a very, very sad 1 because i don't have more than 5 for right now , but i can assure you guys I will get a 4 as soon I start with the rest of my project.
Professionalism: I would give myself a 4 because I don't see any mistakes in my project from what i have for now.

my country!
The country i chose was Japan. It seemed like a type of country to go visit and there are a bunch of different types of interesting places and different foods. A lot of tourists go to Japan and come back with a smile on their faces without any regret of having to visit Japan. I also wanted to choose Australia but I figured that asians are awesome so i just chose Japan.
questions answered.
Scenario #1 – A student sends a harassing e-mail to another student. The receiving student
retaliates with a “flaming e-mail.” Is this the appropriate response? If not, what would be?
Scenario #2 – When hanging out with friends, one of the students makes a call on their cellphone and carries on a conversation while still within the group. Is this ok? Why or why not?
-i don't think its okay because if you are with a couple of friends and then you get a phone call and you carrie on the conversation then pretty much your just ditching your friends in a way where your just not talking to them. The good thing to do is call them back when your done hanging out with the friends your already with.
Scenario #3 – A student logs on to a free file sharing website and downloads a song they just heard on the radio. Is this ok? Why or why not?
-No, its not okay because you cant download stuff unless you ask the teacher.
Scenario #4 – A student follows a questionable link to a website and downloads a malicious script which releases a Trojan Horse virus on to the school network. Is the student to blame? Why or why not?
retaliates with a “flaming e-mail.” Is this the appropriate response? If not, what would be?
-I think my response should not be something bad back because then the situation will just get bigger and worse. My response wouldn't even be a response because then i would just get myself in trouble too. I would just show the teacher and let them handle it themselves.

Scenario #4 – A student follows a questionable link to a website and downloads a malicious script which releases a Trojan Horse virus on to the school network. Is the student to blame? Why or why not?
-Yes, because he downloaded a malicious script and then it released a virus. He isn't suppose to download stuff without permission in the first place.
Scenario #5 – An hour before class, a student remembers that a writing assignment is due. The student goes to the library, logs on to a website, and copies/pastes the information. Is this ok? Why or why not?
-No because if he does that then he pretty much isn't learning for himself and its just like copyright. Its illegal and its not fair for others because everyone else is doing their own essay and he doesn't put any effort on his.
Scenario #6 – At home, a student uses a software package to copy movies and games from DVD’s for his or her friends. Is this within fair-use laws? Explain.
-No, it isn't because its illegal and he is copying something he doesn't have permission by anyone to be getting DVD's and games.
Scenario #7 – A student logs into the school website to download the syllabus they lost. Are they breaking any rules or laws? Explain.
-Yes, they are because you cannot download anything without permission.
Scenario #8 – Students spend a good amount of time in class creating a web page for a school sponsored fundraiser. However, there website is not usable by certain individuals with disabilities. Was this disrespectful or wrong of them?
-Yes, because certain individuals with disabilities aren't usable.
Why do you think netiquette is important? Why are we suing part of our class time for this?
-I think we are doing this so we can now know better before one of us actually does something similar or the same thing as the previous questions and examples.

my own self grading
On the design template i would say that i could of gotten a 4 because i did actually designed it my way and the way i liked it in my opinion.
on the design tab gadget i would give myself a 2 because i really don't know how to put more and also because honestly i really don't want them in my page so i think i would raise my grade at least to a 3.
on setting tab i give myself a 3 because i really don't get it but I'm sure its on the third one so its a 3 for me.
on protecting my page i give myself a 4. no doubt about it.
on posting i give myself a 4 because i do have my posts and the page i had to open up.
blog entries would give myself a 3 because I'm not sure if their all right.
on commenting i give myself a 4.
professionalism also a four because it is all appropriate.

The survey results: the survey results made us realized what we actually knew and what we didn't really know about technology. And personally it helped me better to see what other students know more or less than me so i can know that I'm not the only one that needs to learn different stuff about the computer.

Experiences
When I first made the avatar it was very creative with everything on the page and thats what made it kinda fun on making one. Then whenever we had to make a background with our new page in the blogger website, it was a bit confusing at first but then i was able to find the different types of colors on the words, titles and links.
