Lesson #1 Navigation and Search

-We have reflected on the concepts of basic terms such as: the internet, web, website, web browser, search engine.

-We have also learned how to use bookmarks for a personalized use of the internet.

-What I retain are the tips that can be used when searching on a web browser: 

  • As well as being able to do an Advanced Search we can also use the following words for further accuracy in our search.
  • We can use AND if we want all of the words that we put in our search be included in our findings
  • Or we can use OR if we want two or more terms to appear, not necessarily together.
  • We can also exclude specific terms from our search by using - which means WITHOUT THE WORDS
  • To find results with a specific sentence word by word we can put it in brackets: "Abracadabra said she" 
  • The I'm feeling lucky button grants that the search results page goes directly to the first ranked page for the search phrase you enter.

I have created a personal account in Diigo. And within Diigo I created a group where I was able to invite only one group member because for advanced use one must pay. It is useful to use because it allows you to save your bookmarks online which means that whatever device we use or browser, we will have access to our favourite and most useful websites.

I created bookmarks for the websites related to our Group Topic "Jobs and Professions"

These are the screenshots:

This is the general view of My Library, in which I posted two links as bookmarks which I individually tagged.
 
 
This is the group I created with 4 websites which have relevant material for our group. Sadly I am not able to invite the 4 member as it requires a premium membership. 

This is the link to my Diigo account

Lesson #8 Netiquette and Educational Comic Strips.

In this lesson we learned about the concept of Netiquette. It is the short term for "Internet etiquette ”. Netiquette is a code of good behavior on the Internet for emailing, social media, online chats ( Instant Messenger Services ), forums , website or news site comments , etc. There are two fundamental milestones in the history of style rules: The RFC 1855 document ( Request for Comments 1855) of 1995. This document was the first reference regarding rules of etiquette for the Internet.   NETiquette , by Virginia Shea 1994 . In 1994, Virginia Shea published this work , which has become one of the Internet classics. Core Rules of Netiquette as written by Virginia Shea can be read below. They have later been adapted to 21st century Internet use but their main principles remains valid: Rule 1: Remember the human Rule 2: Adhere to the same standards of behavior online... Rule 3: Know where you are in cyberspace Rule 4:

Conditionals  This is a conditionals exercise I did. The two images have been put together as they were a part of the same project   This is the first example I tried to make using Scratch and conditionals.   Variables  This is an exercise I tried by myself while practising the options that were given to us in class using variables.The following images show us two different ways of making a similar sequence of orders.     Loops  First I am showing basic examples of what I tried to experiment with in class     Here is another example of making a loop in two different but very similar ways:     This one is also a trial of different characters engaging in a conversation while they also move and interact within the setting :     Another example made to count from a given number upwards with a loop and variables:   Group work project on Scratch   This is our group project with all the different elements https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/529507384 Scratch Group Project
