Home Network

​home networkI enjoyed this project because I got to show how creative I can get with technology. Now I think i know a little bit more of the different net works. I think that this project could have been a bit more difficult because I like to challenge myself with hard things. I enjoy learn about technology because then later in life I can use the skills that I had in high school to the newer technology.


Reflection #1 for Q2

Posted by Morgan Caswell in Spanish 3 - Manuel - Y on
  Hoy es el 50 aniversario de la muerte del presidente 53 a de América,  Senor John Fitzgerald Kennedy. John Kennedy fue el primer presidente estadounidense en reconocer la importancia de los votos de la gente de todas las razas. Él apoyó los derechos de las personas hispanas, negras y asiáticas. Cuando fue candidato a la presidencia, ganó 85% de los votos del mexicano-americano. Reconocimiento de Kennedy sobre la importancia del voto hispano americano ocurrió 15 horas antes de ser asesinado. Tanto él como su esposa, Jackie Kennedy, apoyó firmemente los derechos civiles y equaltity votación para todos en Estados Unidos. Los historiadores y otras personas que estudian Kennedy piensa que su apoyo a los derechos civiles provocó algo en otros líderes. Muchas personas se unieron al presidente para asegurar que todos los estadounidenses tiene el mismo peso en la que era el líder estadounidense. El Presidente Kennedy fue también el presidente que desafió científicos estadounidenses para llegar a la Luna antes del final de los años sesenta. Kennedy fue un presidente liberal que se movió América adelante en áreas pueden. Mucha gente le gusta Kennedy en el cargo y que estaban muy tristes cuando fue asesinado. Kennedy era joven cuando murió y mucha gente pensó que tenía el potencial de hacer mucho por América.  

Home Network For Technology Class

Posted by Teylor Ellerbe on
Home Network  ​This project is showing a picture we had to draw for Technology class. We had to draw a picture of our home network and later draw the same picture on the app Lucid Chart. According to Wikipedia the definition of a home network is  "A home network or home area network is a type of local area network that develops from the need to facilitate communication and interoperability among digital devices present inside or within the close vicinity of a home." My definition of a home network is all of the electronic devices in your home that run on your home wifi. This project taught me what a home network is and what's supposed to go on a home network , i feel that i learned a lot about the word home network in technology class.

​This lucid chart shows my entire home network.  This includes my ISP (Internet Service Provider), my type of router and the technologies in home house that use the internet.  The arrows show where the internet is going and how it is getting there.  Blue stream did this assignment to learn about the rules of the school network and how it's laid out.  By understanding our home networks, we would understand the school network.

My internet starts out by coming through my dinning room from Xfinity. Then we have another box that connects to the computer. We all have a phone or laptop on the box so it's connected to the wireless that's why I have the signs over six items. We created this project to show how our own internet is connected at home also to show how internet works in general. We need to know how our internet works so we could describe our internet. Also to know how internet works, this is why we made this diagram.

My internet in my household

Posted by Dominique Ballinger on
Okay so in this chart it shows how my internet works through out my house. First we have the "internet cloud", then we have the internet service provider (ISP) which is Verizon. This Verizon ISP is connected on the third floor of my house. This is where my wireless rotter is. This rotter is then directly connected to my dads desktop where he does his work. This rotter is also then connected to the printer. Then on some days my mom will directly connect her work computer to the rotter. Although we have things directly connected to the wireless rotter there is also things that just use WIFI. We have two laptops and to smart phones that use Wifi. This is how the internet is used in my household.

           Ispdrawling (1)   This project was about learning the internet and how it works.This project was showing all our internet connects that we use without even knowing it. Everyone got to go home and search their provider and what is connected to it. We learned the rules and how we can use it without getting cought or even a virus. I think doing this project was really cool because we get to see what we have for our internet but if we did not do this project I would not even have look at these things in my house.

My Home Network

Posted by Talya Laver in Technology- Freshmen - Hull - b2 on
For this project we had to create a drawing of our home internet network. The goal was to help us understand what the internet actually is and where the codes go to bring you the information you need. The next part of the unit was understanding Acceptable Use Policies. We read both the SLA AUP as well as the SDP AUP so we could further understand what acceptable internet use looks like.

Internet AUP

Posted by Kara Heenan in Technology- Freshmen - Hull - b2 on
In this first quarter in Tech, we learned about the internet and what we do on it. Ms. Hull taught us about the troubles you can get into and how to use the internet wisely. She also taught us about the connections of the internet we have for our devices. This is a picture of how the internet connects to the different devices in my home.

Home Networking

Posted by Chiara Nemati on
I learned about networking and how to be safe with the Internet. I also learned about the acceptable use policy for the school district and S.L.A. I now understand how my Home Network runs through all of the devices in my home. I also learned about cyberspace and the process that information goes through when you send someone an email. It gets packaged, then codes itself and goes through a whole process of security checks. These security checks are a bit like the ones we go through at an airport. When a file is not allowed to go through it gets destroyed. There are many firewalls that information has to pass through. For this project I had to create a Lucid Chart of my Home Networking system. I showed where each device was in my house and how they were connected. All of the devices are connected to a wireless modem. My server is Comcast so I have an Coax cable. This is a chart that I made, it demonstrates all of the devices in my home and how they are connected. I made this chart because it helped me understand how my network works. In this chart you can see that for each room devices are listed and the arrows show that they are all connected to a netgear Modem which lets the devices run on a wireless network.

Internet connection

Posted by Chloë Epstein in Technology- Freshmen - Hull - b2 on
This project helped me see how my electronic devices really work. Before, I knew nothing about how these devices were working and what helped them work. For all I new they could have been working "magically". But now I know there are different wires and connections that have the internet work and the device alone to power on. We also learned about the application Lucid chart which we used to create our internet connection document. Now we have more knowledge on the different programs that we have access to on the SLA website.

In the first quarter of Tech, Ms.Hull taught us a great deal about the concept of the Internet.We learned the difference between SLA AUP and PSD AUP.We also Learned about how we are able to get the internet and how it operates the electronic devices we own.This diagram below shows  how my Internet enters my house and  connects to my electronic devices in my house.This activity was very fun.  I never really thought about how my tablet allows me to get on the internet.I just knew I was on, now I know the reasoning behind it.

MY INTERNET AUP

Posted by Niah Lombo in Technology- Freshmen - Hull - b2 on
During the first marking period in Tech. we learned about the internet and how mistakes people made on the internet. SLA internet policy is more reasonable than The School District. They have some similarity like no porn, no downloading, no personal files, but I believe SLA gives you more freedom to expand our work to the world than the School District. As we learned about the internet policy we also read a book called "LOL OMG". The book is about mistake people made on the internet and how it effected their personal lives. The book teaches us to be more careful on what we say on the internet. This lesson is for us to figure stuff out and to learn more about our internet and where it comes from. Overall I learned to be more careful on the internet and to think twice before we post.

Quarter 1 Aaron Watson-Sharer

Posted by Aaron Watson-Sharer in Technology- Freshmen - Hull - b2 on

This quarter we learned many things, from how our internet works to the School districts AUP. The districts AUP was very specific in what we can and can not do. There are big consequences if you are caught violating these rules. We learned a little bit on how some computers communicate in 1's and 0's. I had a god time reading about idiots on the internet. Now we all know to be more careful.

My Home Network

Posted by Jaiyeola Omowamide in Technology- Freshmen - Hull - b2 on
​ During the first quarter of Tech, we first drew a diagram of how the internet works in our home. From there, Ms.Hull taught us the rules of SLA's and the school district's acceptable use policy and we looked at the similarities and differences between the two. We read a book about the dangers of the internet, and how to use it in a positive way. Here is a diagram of how the internet travels through my home. It was frustrating to create at first, but in the end, I got it completed.

My Home Internet

Posted by Siawale Vesslee in Technology- Freshmen - Hull - b2 on
In this quarter, we learned about where our internet comes from in our homes. Because of this, we also had to learn about the different Acceptable Use Policies (AUP) that we, as SLA students, are held under. We learned about the School District of Philadelphia AUP and SLA's AUP. After learning about the AUPs, we discussed about how to make smart decisions when using the internet. To me, this was very insightful because I never knew that my activities on the internet were being monitored. This was a reality check and it kept me informed.

Lucid Chart

Posted by Harrison Freed in Technology- Freshmen - Hull - b2 on
​Today in Tech, Orange stream had to use the online application "Lucidchart" to create a flowchart showing the online network in our homes. We did this to:
1. Learn more about our home and the internet by knowing how it works (to an extent) and
2. To learn more about Lucidchart, so that we may utilize it for our classes.
We had previously been taught about the differences between the AUP (Acceptable Use Policy) for SLA and the School District of Philadelphia. In general, the school district's seemed to be more strict.
In other news, I forgot to bring in lunch today.

Colin's Home Network

Posted by Colin Pierce in Technology- Freshmen - Hull - b2 on

In the beginning of the first quarter, Ms. Hull had us research and create a diagram of our home network. The purpose of the assignment was for us to get a better understanding of how exactly the internet worked, and to give us an idea of how the school's wi-fi worked. In my diagram I have a Comcast Co-Ax cable coming into my house and connecting to my modem. Then, the modem connects to my router through an ethernet cable, and the router connects to all of my family's devices using a wireless network. The router also connects to a signal extender, which transmits to my PS3 and Wii, which are out of range of the regular network. There is no connection to the laptop in the lower-left corner of the diagram because it's too old to install wi-fi drivers on.

Home Network

Posted by Gabrielle Kreidie on
We were given a assignment a couple weeks ago, with the task of figuring out and drawing our home networks. I went home and tried finding the connected wires to my internet connection. I had to find all the devices connected by wireless, which came with a whole lot of devices since there are five people, including myself, in my household. With figuring out my home network, I was able to find the uses of the ethernet wires and airport. I figured out how internet is used and how large it really is. I figured out the price for what my parents pay every month for wireless. I came to a conclusion, the internet is a wonderful thing and everyone should know where it comes from and what it stands for.

Artículo 1: Canal de Panamá y Un Alcalde

Canal de Panamá y Un Alcalde


El Canal de Panamá es un gran canal para barcos. Se conecta los océanos atlántico y pacifico. Mucho de comercio internacional se lleva a cabo a través del canal. El canal remonta a primeros exploradores europeos. Ellos tenían la gran idea para conectar los océanos. Vieron el puente tierra entre Norteamérica y Sudamérica y pensado un canal. 

Ahora el canal va a ser ampliado porque Vicepresidente Joe Biden dice que va a obtener trabajos. Un canal más grande permitiría que los barcos más grandes y muchos más. Comercio más rápido. Más comercio. Más trabajos. 

Alcalde Nutter dice es una buena oportunidad para América y para Filadelfia. Nutter va al canal con Biden para observar el sitio y contribuir en el debate. También dijo que esto es bueno para el puerto de Filadelfia porque se va a hacer a la economía mejor y hará trabajos. Biden y Nutter claramente están haciendo grandes cosas. Están haciendo importantes cosas suceden. 

Creo que todo es genial. Más trabajos que me hace más feliz. Si quieren un canal más profundo, bien. Si quieren barcos más grandes, bien. Pero sólo si la economía se mejora. Si todo esto no era para nada, voy a estar infeliz. Tal vez enojado. 

En conclusión, canales son buenos.

Chhievling's Home Network

Posted by Chhievling Seng in Technology- Freshmen - Hull - b2 on
During my quarter one in Tech, I had learned many things; from reading about people who had made huge mistakes online, then onto learning about the School District's and SLA's AUP. Ms. Hull had guided us well in understanding how the source "internet" can be such an advantage, but in order for the internet to be something we use in a positive way, we must understand it. Here is the creation of my home network (picture below) that I had made on LucidChart. I had never used LucidChart before, and Ms.Hull had left my classmate and I to figure it out ourselves. In the end, I did figured out how to use it , otherwise there wouldn't be a picture to blog about. After all of Ms. Hull's lessons, I realized that the purpose of it was for us to be wise and understand what we are using. For example, the purpose of drawing my home network was for me to understand how the internet work in my house. Then, to transfer the drawings onto LucidChart, and then blog about it without her guidance was to teach us how to be an intelligent independent thinker.

Reflection # 1 Quarter 2

Ms. Manuel


Los Mexicanos lograron reducir niveles de pobreza. Universidad de Nueva York (CUNY). En Nueva York, hay 32,6% en 1990 y 30.4% en dos mil once. Latinos están en la pobreza porque en dos mil siete, nosotros tenemos la crisis económica. Africanos Americanos son pobres y la segunda grupo fue son Mexicanos. El profesor de Laird Bergad enseña estudios los Latinos Americanos. El ingreso promedio en los hogares de Nueva York en 1990-2011. Hay muchos pobrezas de los Mexicanos en ciudad. El artículo dijo más Mexicanos no van a la escuela.

Aprendí en California, hay muchos Mexicanos y Latinos viven en So-California. Amigos de mi tia tiene tres hijos, su madre, su padre. Ellos tienen una casa pequeña con dos dormitorios y una patio. Los hijos dormían en una dormitorio con los abuelos. Yo estaba feliz de que son pobres porque ellos tienen una casa. Yo pienso familias en California, comida y cosas eran caras. El impuesto es 9.75%! Una familia con un padre, una madre y una niña pequeña ellos preguntaron por dinero. Estaba triste porque ello tenían hambre. Mi tía dijo ella no tiene dinero porque ella tiene que comprar comida por mi familia. Fue muy triste.

The Afterthought

Posted by Jesse Shuter in English 2 - Pahomov - A on

Scene Opens to a locker room everyone is chatting, and getting dressed


Okay you know how to do this one leg at a time. Are the shin pads tight enough? Ya they are on good.

Now to put the skates on the longest part. How is everyone already done I was the first one here?

Just ignore them, let them talk, you need to focus. put your skates on grab the strings pull, grab the next ones and pull, pull, pull, pull until you have nothing left in you to pull with.

Okay the skates are on, what did I forget, I feel like I am forgetting something?

Oh ya….that…..the thing that shows everyone that I am weak, that I am vulnerable. Should I use it and face the stares or skip it a risk an asthma attack out on the ice where it counts?

You know what, who cares what they think of me, if it makes me a better player than I need to use it!

Okay shake it up, don’t draw too much attention to yourself, take the cap off, take a deep breath in……...and out……...now before they realize take a puff. POOF! Wow that was loud, and they noticed, they are looking, what do I do?

I need another puff but now I’m vulnerable like a deer caught in headlights, I am already halfway across the street but maybe if I stay here the car will stop and turn around so I can keep going in privacy.

Nope, I am not so lucky. The car is staring right at me waiting for me to make my move, so I guess that I should continue not ever looking back.

Breath in……..and out……...in…….and out…….here it comes…...PUFF!

Thank god that’s over, and here comes the coach ready to provide his words of wisdom.

-----------

That’s it, that’s all you got!?!? Play hard he says, pass the puck he says. Gee thanks coach, couldn’t have thought of those on my own.

What time is it?

Oh it’s game time, we gotta go.

Stand up make sure everything feel good, loose yet tight, that’s what to look for.

Where is my stick? Oh of course, right next to me. My glowing red stick was hiding in plain sight.

----------

Step out onto the ice and scan the scene. The first thing to always look at is the opponent. How big are they, do they wear glasses, are there any girls on their team, how many players are there.

I always need to know just how intimidated I should be.

So lets see, they are huge and in more ways than one. Holy crap there must be twenty of them and they each must be six feet tall each, I can only imagine how the younger kids on my team must feel.

They don’t look nervous. If they aren’t nervous, then why should I be nervous? Am I just a panicky person, or are they ignorant.

Oh well, I need to shake this off and focus, it’s time to put everything aside and play the game.

----------

Coach is announcing the lines, he will probably put me out first, I played really well last week and I think he finally noticed.

Doug, Pat and Murph. Pat, Murph, and Doug. Murph, Doug and Pat. No mention of me. Never a mention of me.

How hard do I have to work just to show I am as good as everyone else. No one works harder than me, no one has more skills than me and yet week after week it’s as if I am a ghost.

Do I have to score 10 goals in a game just to be an afterthought?

---------

Okay it’s my turn, here comes my teammate, I am going out to the promised land! The welcoming ice glows. Where is the puck, wait…..is that it? It is up for grabs, right in front of me! Reach out and take it, it want you as much as you want it. Is someone coming? I feel like someone is…...boom! Where did he come from? Where am I now?

Gather your thoughts stand up and hit him back. Of course, he doesn’t fall, but at least I hit him enough to steal the puck back.

Now I am on a break away, there is one guy in front of me. Get low, left right….ooooohhh I just made him look silly. In I go and I see another guy ahead. I begin to make my move when I hear my teammate.

“I’m open!” He says.

Do I pass it and let him have the glory or try it myself.

Would he pass to me? Definitely not. So why should I do the same?

I go to make the move and it works but not fast enough because I’ve been caught from behind. Now I have no choice. I quickly get the puck away from me as I crumple to the ice and to my open teammate who scores.

We win! We are going to the finals! Everyone surrounds him, congratulating him.

He is the hero. Not me, I am an afterthought.
