Reflection Kamil Kielar

Posted by Kamil Kielar in Technology - Freshman - Hull - y2 on
hi
hi
​ Today in class we had watched a video about a little boy that was getting bullied. The bullies were doing all these mean thing to him and you could help him out by pressing this emoji. After you press the emoji the bullies do nice things to him instead bullying him. When I had seen this video I had felt so emotionally touched and bad for him. I remember when I was younger I was bullied by some kids but then I just learned to ignore it and ever since nothing has been able to really offend me. Online I am a complete ghost. I have never have a single social media and never felt as if I need one. Based on this appearance I think people tend to ignore me completely online which is both good and bad. In my opinion the goal for an internet troll is to annoy you and make you feel bad about yourself. The positive side of being anonymous is no one can bully you because you don't exist but the downside is you cannot interact with friend and be able to talk to them even though your not next to them physically.       

Who am I Online? - Andrew Rodebaugh

Posted by Andrew Rodebaugh in Technology - Freshman - Hull - y2 on
In Tech class we had to Google yourself and explain what we think about it. I am pretty proud of what is on Google all the stuff I am proud of seems to be on top and looking through it you can learn about me (In a good way). The only thing is that also on the first page on Google is a article about my heart defect that may seem OK but, I am worried if I want a job and they Google me and they see that I am worried they will be worried about me. I will work on my Internet profile and make it better.

Today we watched an #Iamawitness video, that gave us an overview of both sides of a bullying story. It brings to my mind that we can change the whole perception of bullying by stopping it and supporting people who are victims. I am just one person in the maze of profiles on the internet. The pictures that show up are appropriate and cringe worthy as well ( fetus pictures. )  I don't think people perceive me in a major way because it's just a normal photo, not appropriate at all. The goal of the internet trolls are to hurt you, their main goal is to bring you unhappiness. I am now more aware of cyber bullying and it got me excited to help vicitims.

Home Network, To

Posted by Cynthia To in Technology - Freshman - Hull - y1 on
1) My local area network is Comcast and the internet connects to the modem with the coax cable. Then, the modem is connected to the router with a ethernet cord. Lastly, the router connects to all my devices at my house are 4 wireless phones, 1 wire home phone, 2  wireless laptop, 1 wired computer, and 1 wireless printer with wiFi.
2) I learned about how the information were sent through packets to get to us. Also,  I learned that there were different wires like coax and also that Verizon provider has a 2 in1 modem/router, other internet providers has two of them separately. 
3) I would tell other people that they need to know about having an home network is which wires connect to what and the process on how our computers receive information and also about the internet providers. 

ILP

Posted by Destiny Patton in Advisory Sophomore - Giorgio - adv on
​I have not started my ILP yet. I have talked to Jeremy in person and sent e-mails. I've tried to talk yo him face to face but Jeremy is very hard to find when you're looking for him. So, my plan is to have a face to face conversation with Jeremy and hopefully we can talk about my options. A few weeks ago I went to the ILP meeting and picked things that I'm interested in.
I would like to do something involved with culinary arts. I f not that then something fun like a class about food science or something of that nature. I would like to figure this out soon so I can know how I can help to speed up this process.

Home Network, Jason

Posted by Jason Chen in Technology - Freshman - Hull - y1 on
There are many people on my LAN because i have a lot of family members but the devices connected are Jason's iPhone,Jason's laptop, Cindy's iPhone, Cindy's laptop, Wendy's iPhone, Wendy's laptop, Dad's iPhone, Dad's laptop, and Mom's iPhone
Something i learned about about networks are the black wire that comes into my house i did not know it was a Coax.
If i were to tell someone something about a ISP or Home Network i would tell them what Router and Modern are.

Xfinity, Brown

Posted by Lauren Brown in Technology - Freshman - Hull - y1 on
The devices on my home network include two laptops, two iPhone's, and an Amazon Fire Tablet. I learned about how it is possible for me to access the internet from my home. I didn't have any OMG moments, but I did learn a lot of cool information. I would tell them that Xfinity wifi costs $64.99 per month.

My LAN contains my laptop,phone,TV, and my mom's phone. This has been a quick and wonderful experience, I've learned a lot. I've actually always wondered what in the world the internet is and I was kind of let down that it was so practical yet intricate. I would tell them they should know what all the chords are and how they work so that if ever one needs to set up their TV or system/device they'll have no problem.

1) The internet comes into my house with a Coax cable. then connects to my modem. Two computers are connected with a wire to the modem. The modem connects to the router with a  Ether Net cord. It send wifi out to 3 phones, 2 playstations, one Ipad, and one cromecast. 
2) The most interesting thing was how the information is sent through packets!
3) I would teach them about the way our internet send signals and how much it takes to recieve information to our computer.

My ISP is Verizon Fios. I have both a modem and a router. Connected to my router I have wireless wifi. Connected to my wifi I have a printer, 4 iPhones, 3 iPads, a PS4, a xBox 1 and an apple desktop. These are the things that make up my home network. One "OMG" moment I had was learning that there were firewalls inside of firewalls. For example, if you were a hacker and the thing you are trying to hack has multiple firewalls, it will be way harder to hack into the thing or site. If you are to have a ISP make sure you pick a ISP that has good quality for a good price.

My internet is provided by Verizon Fios, we then have a modem/router. We have our computer connected via Ethernet cable. Then we have an iPad, 4 i Phones, a wireless printer, an xbox, and a smart tv. In this class I have learned the different between the World wide web, and the internet, and have been taught how to use canvas, which was EXTREMELY helpful. Something I could tell other people is to think about all the devices you have that are connected to the internet and make a drawing of it and how its connected to the internet.

My Local Area Network consists of a wired PC, two wireless laptops, four wireless smartphones, and a wireless printer.

One thing I learned that I found interesting was the difference between the World Wide Web and the Internet, which I use interchangeably.

I would tell other people that an ISP is very much like a Carrier that provides phone service, but instead provides internet connection. Having internet connection is also very costly, something that is often overlooked.

​From the Internet, I have an ethernet cord that connects to my motem/router. From my motem/router an ethernet cord connects to my printer/scanner. The rest of the technology in my house is wireless. The other devices in my household include four iPhones, one Windows PC, two Chromebooks, and two tablets. I had an OMG moment when I realized there was an ethernet that connected to my motem/router at home that gave me Internet. This home network lesson taught me how specifically each of my devices connects to the Internet, whether it's via wire or wireless. I also learned that there are a lot more wireless devices in my house than devices connected by wires. You need to know what wire brings internet into your home or what cords connect to your motem/router in case you have future problems with your internet. This would help clear up whether you need a new wire or if the problem is on the ISP's end.

2. The devices connected to the internet at my house are 5 smartphones, 4 tablets, 1 console, 3 laptops, 1 desktop, and 1 smart t.v. 3. One "OMG" moment I had was when Ms. Hull told the class that every thing we do on the internet is being watched and saved. 4. I would tell other people to be aware and be careful of what they do on they internet because everyone is being watched.

Answer to the QuizBowl question above: Stonewall Riots

Home Network: Christina Santana

This unit expanded my interest on learning more about computers, their networks, and how they work. My Internet Service provider is Comcast. That I believe is the beginning of my network. My network includes a modem that is connected to my computer by an Ethernet cord. This Ethernet cord connects to a modem. Connected to the internet off of that modem are 3 IPhones, 2 Kindles, 1 computer, 1 wireless printer, 1 laptop, and 1 user. Which is me. In this class I learned that the world wide web and the internet were two different things. I also learned how to represent my internet router in a chart. I would tell other people to make their own homework because it is interesting to see how it looks in a 3D diagram.

Home Network, Ashley De La Cruz

My internet service provider is Verizon. My internet is connected to my modem/router by a fiber cable. The modem/router then sends off wifi signals to my SLA laptop and my iPhone. The modem/router also sends off wifi signals to our laptop, my sister's iPhone, my mom's iPhone, and my dad's iPhone. I learned that different internet service providers have different cables. I learned that when we search up something online, it goes through multiple steps, so depending on our internet, the search may come faster or slower. I also learned that I have a 2-in-1 device, because my modem and router are 1 device. I would tell other people to be cautious of copyright and what they're looking up because even though you may think you're not doing anything wrong, it could come back to get you. 

Jowon's Home Network

Posted by Jowon Dorbor in Technology - Freshman - Hull - y1 on
All the devices connected to my internet is my phone, parents' phone, computer, and two laptops. I didn't know about the modem and router I thought we just had extra things for our computer to go fast so now I know the different and it's important to have them. I would tell other people that they need to know the difference between the modem, router and the wires importance just if they want to remove some things from their computer.

1. There are many devices on my home network. There are three cell phones, three kindles, three computers, and one printer that are all wireless and a house phone that is wired.
2.I learned a lot about networks, before this I knew nothing about my home network and now I feel like I know a good amount. I did have an OMG moment, my OMG moment was when I realized that the internet has a lot more to it than I thought it did. I knew there was a lot to the internet but not that much.
3.I would tell people that they should research their isp and home network before they get it. Also I would tell them to teach the other people on their home network about it so that they all know how it works and they don't take it for granted like I used to.
