Week Six: The internet Highway

 

Hi Guys! here we go again. haha! this is our topic for today. Lets talk about the internet highway.

In this Generation, internet is very important to humans. It help us to communicate to others and it help us to do the things easy, specially to the students.

The Internet, sometimes called simply "the Net," is a worldwide system of computer networks - a network of networks in which users at any one computer can, if they have permission, get information from any other computer (and sometimes it talks directly to users at other computers). The original aim was to create a network that would allow users of a research computer at one university to be able to "talk to" research computers at other universities. Today, the Internet is a public, cooperative, and self-sustaining facility accessible to hundreds of millions of people worldwide. Physically, the Internet uses a portion of the total resources of the currently existing public telecommunication networks. And whatever it’s called, the majority of people in developed nations are now going online to exchange electronic mail (E-mail) and instant messages; participate in chat groups; post and read messages in social networking sites and blogs, “surf” the world wide web; and many other online activities. Even children are no exception in fact they are more likely to be online than adults.

Personal computers are no longer the only method used for accessing the Internet. Children can go online from personal computers at home, a friend’s house, in school, a library, club, or cafe. Many game consoles can be connected to the Internet and used for chatting and other online interaction. It is also possible to access the Internet on mobile devices such as cellular telephones and other hand-held devices. In other words children don’t have to be in the company of responsible adults to use the Internet. And once you’re connected to the Internet you’re able to exchange information with people who use other providers unless you’re using a service that offers restricted access such as blocking mail from outside the service or from people who aren’t pre-approved by a child’s parent. But internet have benefits that reference the information such as airline fares, encyclopedias, movie reviews, news, sports, stock quotes, and weather are readily available.Like what I've said internet can help us in many ways. But internet can affects us in different ways. It's either good or bad. Its a matter of how we used internet in a nice way.

Week Five: My new Family

Last July 19, 2012. they have the program about the Official Organization for the MultiMedia Students. On that Day I got a dengue fever, so I don't know what really happened on that day. But based on my interview to my classmates. I think they enjoyed for being there. The others said that it was fun and memorable to them. 

For me, personally even that I did not come on the Official Organization for MULTIMEDIA students. Because of my fever. I feel happy because of their expressions. And for me, as a Transferee student and a Shifter student I'm Happy for being part of CAS Family. This is my new Family. Like others I feel comfortable here and relax.

MMa Family is my Family Artist, My new Family! I know we can make a fun memories! :-)

Week four:  TEAM WORK

HELLO! What is teamwork for you. Actually for me, Teamwork is very important for me and of course for us as a human. We need each other to do all things together. Teamwork is the process of working together with a group of people in order to achieve a goal. And it means that people will try to cooperate, using their individual skills and providing constructive feedback, despite any personal conflict between individuals. One of my example here is the parents working with teachers to help students achieve their potential are an example of a teamwork. It is the ability to work together toward a common vision. The ability to direct individual accomplishment toward organizational objectives. It is the fuel that allows common people to attain uncommon results. We as a humans, we need each other to do the thing we cannot to do, its a matter of sharing strength to each other.

We can connect teamwork through communication. Communication is a two way street. A team that communicates together is more likely to do the things necessary to be successful. Honestly, you need someone to talk to make you happy and of course to have some information and that's one that we called teamwork. And because to succeed at the task in hand everyone involved needs to combine their efforts. If everyone does their job well, then it increases what the team can accomplish. And teamwork has to be recognized by everyone and know that great things can happen if individuals master the fundamentals and work together as one unit. Everyone has their own unique role, but each person's individual role must be recognized and appreciated. So, Teamwork is Very important to us. Caring for others and sharing their strength to others.

WEEK 3: HOW TECHNOLOGY CAN AFFECT THE WAY OF COMMUNICATION

Communication is an essential part of the human experience. However, as humanity evolves, technology is evolving with it, and impacting the way the communicative aspect of our lives functions. The effects of modern technology on how we communicate with one another are vast and varied, with both negative and positive impacts for our business and personal lives.Technology plays an important role in our lives. We receive entertainment and information in a convenient format from the technology in our lives. One of the most important areas that technological advances play a role in our lives is in communication. Although we often take communication technology for granted, it is nonetheless influential. Whether it's family, friends or a significant other, distance makes life very difficult and complicated. Phone conversations can only do so much and take place so frequently, which is why modern technology is helping communication so much. Technologies such as video conferencing, text messaging and social networking sites like Facebook and My Space can help keep friends and family updated on your life.

Although technology is a way of sharing information. It gives people a better understanding on things and is a lot better than writing down things because it is a hands on activity. Technology is the resource for making life easier. But the technology can affect us, maybe it is good or bad specially to the students. At this current day and age, students have cell phones. The majority of students that have cellphones usually are texting in class, just to talk to their friends about who knows, and who cares. Because they are constantly texting and not paying attention to what the teacher is saying. However, some forms of technology are used to advance the current amount of knowledge one person, or a group of people have. With the ability to communicate with others around the world, students can try to find people that can help them better understand whatever courses they are taking. And they could use the ability of communication to try to find someone who is very fluent in the language, and talk to them to try to understand it much better then they already do.

Week 2: Why We Communicate?

Communication is a tool with which we exercise our influence on others, bring out changes in our and others’ attitudes, motivate the people around us and establish and maintain relationships with them. Communication makes a major part of our active life and is a social activity. This social activity is pursued verbally through speech, reading and writing or non-verbally through body language.Communication skill is not language specific. It is not as though speakers of a particular language have refined communication skills whereas; the speakers of some other language have unrefined communication skills. But communication skill is related to the culture of the group to which the individual belongs. All messages that we send or receive are processed by a mental-filter. This mental-filter or the mindset is forged by our family, friends, neighbourhood, the school and society. Human, communication is more complex, varied and has several objectives, it is complex because of the use of language, a repertoire (Store-house) of previously accepted and agreed oral and written codes. It is varied because it ranges from simple gestures or facial expressions to the most advanced e-mail technologies.

Communication is important to us in order to understand each and everyone of us. We communicate to persuade that we want someone to do something and this desire of ours is communicated. We communicate in order to give or provide information. We communicate to seek information. And we communicate to express our emotions like courage or fear, joy or sorrow, satisfaction or disappointment with appropriate gestures and words. 

Week 1: CAS IS FUN!

In my fist day in Lyceum of the Philippine and be part of CAS Family it’s really fun. I enjoyed in orientation for freshmen and transferees. In that day, I said to myself “I have no regrets Choosing my course of multi media arts here in this department” and being part of CAS Family.

At first, I think it’s hard for me as a transferee student to adjust in the system of this school. But as time goes by I realize that it’s not really hard as I thought. And  because the CAS Family are friendly to freshmen and transferee students. And you know what, the CAS Family is very active in every activity and every programs.

For me, I really appreciate the efforts of CAS students and I see that they enjoyed what their doing. I’m so excited for the coming days of my college life here in Lyceum and being part of CAS family. I hope, I’m one of the participants in the coming activities of CAS. And I hope I can have more friends in CAS department not only in my course.

Truly, CAS is really FUN!! And I prayed that more strength and wisdom to come in CAS family.
