16.1

If you buy products online you set yourself up to be scammed. Buying online is a easier way to buy things you need/ want but it is alot riskier. Some people out there will scam people using online sales. Buyer beware while buying online is a very smart thing to remember.

E-commerce refers to conducting business via the Internet, includes online banking, trading stocks, and purchasing goods and services. E-commerce has become a fact of modern life, with millions of people now shopping regularly from the convenience of their computers. Many retailers have websites where you can purchase products online, including flowers, pet food, and tonight's dinner. The problem with online shopping is you can't always garruntee what you are getting. People should watch out when they are buying online and should only go through trusted sites and sellers. Ebay is not a trusted site, yes they do have percautions but the site is not selling anything people are and not all people on ebay can be trusted. While buying online you should make sure you are buying through a trusted and well known site. E-commerce is all about online business, so the bottom line is be careful. To protect yourself better online don't save your credit card info or personel banking info on any computer. Identity theft is a growing crime because people put their info every where online.

thing 15.1

Career prep comes in handy when people have no clue what to do or how to do it. Exploring career options is a very good idea, incase you have no clue what you want to do.

thing 14.1

A small but annoying issue in class is people taking Paul's seat. It is a bad idea to take Paul's seat, because he is alot more annoying than usual. 1 out of 4 people said Paul is funnier after his seat was stolen.

thing 13.1 - 4

13.1
google apps are applications that help people, do little things like remember what they/ others have done. It is called a productivity suite because it helps increase productivity. Someone would want to use google apps because they are easy to use.


13.3
Google apps is a easy to go to place so you can work on documents and make task lists. I dont like using google Docs because I have to be online in order to use it.


13.2
google apps is a online version of microsoft office. I like the usability of google docs. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/15eBDUMXWbveFxPI09yrfcYjQYIzCwJdkhUqx46GeRO0/edit#slide=id.gc1924b2_0_5

13.4
Gmail is a email service provided by google. When using school email you should not use the email to insult other students or`stalking other students. People might want to use CUTE pdf writer because it is easy to use and it is a fast way to get a document off the internet.

thing 10.2


Online learning would be good for me because I can work on my own without the help of a teacher.
I would have to change the amount of studying I do in a given week.

thing 10.1

Learning online is becoming more and more prevalent in schools. While learning online is a very convenient thing for people who are ready for it, there are many people in society that find many difficulties with online learning. Before signing up for an online class, it is a good idea to do a self analysis and honestly determine if learning online is right for you.


In the movie “Students’ Perspectives on Teaching” I most associate with the gifted student. I say this because most things come easy to me and I don’t have to try to understand things. I think online learning is a good idea for me. Online learning would be good for me because I don’t need to have a teacher in front of me to learn. Most students require a more hands on learning pace or a teacher led class in order to learn, which can cause conflict between students and teachers.

characteristics:
1. Reading through the current week’s assignments and lecture materials
2. Thoughtfully reading the textbooks for the class as assigned and identifying main points and supporting details
3. Responding by a deadline to discussion questions as posted by the instructor
4.  “Discussing” through the Discussion Board Forum or Group Forums the responses of fellow classmates
5.  Completing and submitting (by a deadline) an assignment
6.  Completing an assignment by deadline in a group project

This might be helpful to me if I was going to do online classes.

thing 5.2

Google chrome and Firefox are the top web browsers. I use Firefox at home.

VLC media player is a great replacement for windows media player. It’s key features are that the VLC media player is an lightweight, open-source multimedia player that supports nearly all digital audio and video formats (e.g. H.264 ,MKV, TS (but not from Technisat DigiCorder), MPEG-2, mp3, AVI, MPEG-4, Ogg, DivX, aac, ...). It can also transcode and convert media files, and act as a streaming server over unicast or multicast and IPv4 or IPv6. VLC does not need any codecs to work.



Having software playing off my flash drive when I plug it in would be really helpful by having a program at my fingertips. I would use the graphics & picture editors so I can work on game characters no matter what computer I am on. It might be a bad idea to use usb flash drive software in cases of the computer being highly restricted.

thing 5.1



these might be helpful if i didnt know how to fix computers.

thing 2.2

i most likely won't use my delicious account.

i wouldn't use either website because i have some unique usernames that no one else uses and i memorize all of my passwords. I use all of the shortcut command almost every day.

thing 1.4

the usefulness of screenshots are really nice, mostly when people are taking tests online or are having computer problems. Domain names are the URL you type into the URL bar when you go to a website.
