Cyber Bullying Video

I liked the movie because, it showed what the effects of a bully can do to a person. There have been plenty of kids who have committed suicide and, had very many physical & emotional problems due to the fact that they are bullied online. I do think, that they made it look very easy to get all of that done and that not very often and, actually I personally have never heard of a bully just being stood up to in front of everyone and, it being okay. This movie was like other cases because, they showed that it can be anyone that is trying to hurt you.

Podcast's- Break ups

This was a podcast was about how to get through break ups. They told you instead of staying home in the dark and, crying to get outside and be strong because, it can help the healing process a lot more. Next, was to surround your self with friends. The last thing was to give it time because, time is your number one healing factor.

Voki/Blabberize Comparison

I liked blabberize better because, it was much easier to use and it was a bit quicker, but quite honestly I wouldn't want to use either of them again because, I did not enjoy making the avatars especially because, I don't like the sound of my own voice. You could use these for like presentations though in a power point or something.

As a 6th grader I think you should probably be monitored by a parent being on the internet. You should make sure what your posting is appropriate & that your parents would be okay with what your saying. You should always look out and make sure that when you are friending someone you know them and that it would look okay if your friends with them. You can protect yourself online by not posting stuff that could help track you such as personal information like, phone numbers, addresses and more. You should practice good netiquette because you never know who is looking at your stuff and one day it could be a college or a job and always want to look good. You should be concerned about ID theft because, you are theifs number one target. You have no credit history so they can open anything they want and once they ruin your credit it becomes your irresponsibility not theirs.

Netiquette

Netiquette is a combination of network and etiquette and is a set of rules for behaving properly online. Netiquette affects everyone on the internet. Some good examples of good netiquette is being ethical, being nice to everyone you encounter. Poor netiquette is when you are harassing someone and, making them feel bad or posting inappropriate pictures.
