Image
  This is our last lesson and it involves Personal Protection and Data protection . It is one of the most important issues to consider when using any kind of device. As educators we will have an important role and our knowledge on internet safety is essential. Also it must be constinously updated due to rapid changes in internet use and behaviour. Here are some guidelines to keep our navigating space safe We should always be on guard. Some elements to bear in mind are the following to keep track of the security in our devices: 1. Control measures : •Device access: Unlock code, facial recognition, visual pattern, fingerprint. •Shared data: Bluetooth, manage location •Remote in case of theft or loss •External memory 2. The importance of security patches and updates :           •Malware: Malicious program that seeks to obtain personal data and money. •Antivirus and Malware Detection Tool 3. Backups: •Use an external disk. •Through synchronized cloud storage (OneDrive, Dropbo

Lesson #2 Cloud data storage and retrieval

 In this lesson we have become familiar with CLOUD COMPUTING which can be defined as: A model for managing, storing and processing Data Online via The Internet.

We have learned that there are different types:

• A Public Cloud is maintained and managed by third parties not related to the organization. In this type of cloud, data and processes from multiple clients are mixed in servers, storage systems and other cloud infrastructures. 
• Private Clouds are a good option for companies that need high data protection and service-level issues. Private clouds are on-demand infrastructure, managed for a single client that controls which applications should run where.  
• Hybrid clouds combine public and private cloud models. A user owns some parts and shares others, albeit in a controlled way. Hybrid clouds offer the promise of scaling, externally provisioned, on-demand, but add the complexity of determining how to deploy applications across these different environments.
 
There are also different delivery models of Cloud Computing:
• Software as a Service(SAAS): Domain for End Customers
• Platformas a Service(PAAS): Domain for Developers
• Internet as a Service(IAAS): Domain for system administrators)
 
We have also become familiar with the term Cloud Storage that is a computer network-based data storage model, where data is hosted in virtualized storage spaces, usually provided by third parties.You can access via your web browser. Examples of this are Google Drive, Dropbox etc.
 
Now I will share a screenshot of how I create a Folder and a document using our University email address which is in Microsoft Outlook 365 OneDrive. I have shared it with my classmates that are in the Workgroup.

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:

Lesson #10 Programming: Scratch

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
