Would You Trade Your Paper Books for Digital Versions?

I think that students should be given a choice to weather or not they want to read traditional books or electronic books. I would say that electronic books would be best for on the go with dealing with you cellphone. Traditional books would be more on the school environment area because there are no cellphones allowed in the classroom.
I believe that the reading you improve dramatically because since it would be on an electronic device everyone would read it because that mostly what everyone have in the 21st century. This would also increase or help students whit reading disabilities. If the book it electronic then it would be able to read it out for them. It is better to watch the lesson in action like a movie and go through it step by step that way we learn more.
It also depends on what you are learning. If it has something to do with science then it would be best if you use the digital books. This would help everyone with a business job and it would make life easier as we go on. I would hope to see the digital book later on in the future.

Question of the Day: Do you think robots will cause unemployment (loss of jobs) in the future or make more work? Why?

Yes I do think that robots would cause unemployment because if the robots are there to do everything then there would be no use for us to do anything. There would be no point of us even lifting a finger.

Question of the Day: Would you speak up if you saw someone being bullied online? Why or why not? Would you speak up if you saw someone being bullied in school? Why or why not?

No I would not speak up if I saw someone getting bullied on the internet because they should pay no attention to the one who is bullying them on the internet, and plus its none of my business. I also wouldnt speak up if I saw someone in school being bullied because if I speak up that person that is the bully might try to come bully me next, so therefore I would not speak up I would just mind my business. If the person who is geting bullied really wants help then they could go to someone like an administrator and tell them because it is not my place to help them in that situation.

Question of the Day: Do you think that social networks appropriate resources for use in education? What are appropriate resources and where can they be found?

Yes i do think that some social networks are appropriate use in education because you can look up schools and colleges to go to. There are sometimes social networks that has nothing to do with education but that doesn't mean that there's none out there. Its very important to find social networks that deal with education, so therefore you can be prepared for the future so go out on the internet and find a social network that's in your field of education.

Cycle 1 Test 2 ICT 1&2

To me people who say unkind things on the internet are just mean and have nothing better else to do with their life. The way people express their feelings on the internet in a negative way just show how they are in real life. The people who say unkind things to other people on the internet have low self esteem.
If someone said something mean to me on the computer or on the telephone I would feel hurt but at the same time I would ignore it because I know that they are only doing that to get their self esteem back up.
To me there is no difference between the telephone and the computer because either way it will all come out the same and hurt the same way. If you really have low self esteem then you would have the heart to do it over the telephone.
