LI: To share our chromebook tips with LS2

Zooming in & out is a way to see small texts in a artical. But is there a simple way to do that? Well I have a solution to that by using my chromebook tip. By just using CTRL ( Control) – or = it will help you zoom in and out. The – sign is used to zoom out and = sign is used to zoom out.

I found this activity to be quite difficult because I had to find a chrome tip that no one did.

For cybersmart we learned Arrest the Effects of Media Manipulation.

We used our knowledge to find out if the photo is fake and the people who made it wanted money or it is real. We also had to answer a question like this why do you think TV Guide decided to create a Frankenstein version of Oprah? Why didn’t they just use a regular photo of her? and our answer was,  the reason why they made a fake photo is because they wanted money from people buying the TV guide.

We found this activity challanging because we had to find out clues to see if it is fake.

L.I To stop, think and check to find out what artical is false and true.

For cybersmart we learned about stop, think and check to find out if the artical is false or true.

Kahu and I had to figure out what actical stop, think and check, by looking at the artical to see when it was posted, or to see if anyone else also posted the artical, or to find out if it is false.

The first artical we did look at was “Kid goes blind after eating too much french fries”. Kahu and I searched up the artical and another person also uploaded the same artical and it shows that it is false.

The next artical we did was only for one of us to do. So the artical I did was “Spanish flu vaccine kill millions”. I did the needed intructions that I needed to do and found out that it was false because the didn’t kill millions in 1918. It happened in 1933.

The one that Kahu did was “Disney Space Mountain Prank”. The artical said that a disney employee let two kids on the Disney Space Mountain and they went missing. Kahu looked in the artical more and found out that it was false. He also found another artical and it also said that it was false.

Me and Kahu found this challenging because we had to find out if it was true or false and we had to look at more websites to see if other people did the same thing.

L.I To find out what post is mis/disinformation

For cybersmart we learned about Mis/Disinformation.

Sasuke and I had to figure out if the people who posted the photos just wanted money, to damage their reputation or get support for their team.

We did some example ones to understand what we are suppose to do. One was a fake post about a man who made a traffic because there was a Pikachu that he wanted to catch.

The reason why this is fake is because he wanted to get money, by making a site where they get money when someone goes into their site.

Sasuke and I thought this was interesting and made us really think and, had to investigate the post further to find out if it was just for money, to damage their reputation or get support for their team.
