Growing up online

• Things that did NOT surprised me:

1. Kids not knowing that the internet can be dangerous for them
2. Kids using the internet for social websites like club penguin or MySpace
3. Parental controls
4. Kids using their phones and computer all the time
5. People using social websites to learn everything about everyone
6. People using social websites to insult and cyber bullying people
7. People having relationships over websites
8. People sending pictures through the internet
9. The parents making the girl deleting every picture
10. Kids not knowing that it is dangerous just because they are in their house
11. Stalkers and internet predators
12. Kids hiding their screens to parents
13. Kids thinking they know how to be safe, you can have an idea but they don't know everything
14. People deleting someone they don't know
15. A mom thinking just because there was alcohol in a concert, parents thinking their kids automatically had consumed alcohol 
16. People feeling lonely and with suicide thought over cyberbullying

• Things that DID surprised me

1. Kids creating videos, because they are creating videos of their faces so everyone can see it 
2. Parents knowing what the kids can do in the internet but they don't stop it
3. People competing in social websites on who had more friends, this is crazy, why would you do that. Those websites are for YOUR friends not people you don't know
4. People having the relationship online, but not talking face to face, that's called not being real
5. A girl being a Goth model with a secret identity and the parents not knowing anything of it, it is scary to see kids act like something completely different
6. The parent making the girl deleting every picture of her but not knowing that once something is in the internet, it will never be completely erased, people could still see the pictures and have them in their phones and computers
7. In the internet there a re no secrets, someone will always be able to see what you upload, it is scary because even thought you try to be safe and you are educated, you are still in danger
8. A mother asking for her kids passwords of social websites, the kids will never give the password it is something personal
9. The teacher talking about sexual harassment over the internet, and saying it is not that bad, they are still being asked for pictures or other things, it is still bad enough
10. A girl being "herself" with other people having the same problems, she felt good talking to other strange people about everything 
11. Forums and websites talking about problems and sharing "helps" for other people with the same problems.
12. A girl suffering of an eating disorder and sharing her problems with people all over the world, but not to her parents, it can be hard to talk about this, but it isn't better to talk about it to other strange people
13. A kid being bullied, then asked his parents to teach him to protect himself but then killed himself, I find bullying disgusting and for it to get to a level of suicide is messed up
14. A girl flirting with the kid that committed suicide, but then just saying it was a joke, I like to messed up with kids like you, why would a girl do that? Just leave him alone
15. A file that the dad found about websites and pages that helped them know how to suicide, it was Ryan and the other kid

• Assignment 

How can we use sustainability in out city?

Bogota is surrounded by a lot of land that can be used for sustainable farms. There are a few projects working on achieving this farms and producing the food and resources for a city/town. With this farms, the production of food would be good and fast. It would be good because it is all natural not damaging the food and/or the land. Fast because it is all connected and makes the products grow faster. Everything used in the farm is re-usable and "safe" for humans, plants and animals living on the farm. 

GAFE

Google Drive

• A Google application that people can use to save all you need (files) 

In Google Drive you can :

• save power point documents
• add videos and pictures 
• create chats, groups where you share your save files 
• use up to 5GB of storage for free (if you want more you have to pay) 
• add spreadsheets 
• add Google docs
• share your files with all electronic devices 
• in a group project you can edit at same time
• search with Google Goggles

How can it be useful? 

People can be organized with their files and have them all in one place. They can share with friends and family all over the word. Edit group works at the same time. Create Google docs, that people can use to write stories and other important documents. Have their presentations ready and saved.

Conclusion:

Google Drive is a very useful app. I really find it interesting and makes me wanting to use it. It would help so much in school because you can share all your files, you can add your teacher and don't have to lose any piece of the work. For teachers I also find it very useful because they can add  their students and they cvan work form any part, at home. They can share ideas and organize an activity together. Any type of work can be uploaded to it, you can present form it. I really just find it useful to be organized, for a student a teacher or a worker. Also for free time for your interests  because you can use it to store your drafts, your videos, pictures. Even better, you can share them with anyone you want. You can create a chat were all the members talk or edit the work at the same time. Also I find it great that you can synchronize and upload things from any device, so you don't have to be in the computer you can be in your phone and still edit and share whatever you need. I really found it extremely useful.
