I was originally in group 1 but I did the assignment for group 2.

Introductions - Learning Literacies - Find it
The article below lets readers better understand how important privacy online is and how to implement it into our lives as a habit. Most people know the dangers of being online, but they do not practice how to safely be on the internet. This article helps them better practice this and incorporate it into their lifestyle.

This article was broke down a lot of how literacies came to be about. It steers into different subcategories, and in each subcategory there was a description and it broke down what each word meant. There were more links that lead to five examples of literacies, these five examples explained differnt scenarios.

This was my first resource and I found it very helpful to start my project. What I liked about it was that it was easy to read and follow without confusion, I would recommend it as one of my favorites, another one of my favorites was in the "Privacy and Freedom of Speech" module, It was an article called Freedom of Expression.

Privacy and Freedom of Speech
This article is a research study from Harvard and it focuses in depth about privacy for anyone who is online. It gives information regarding why privacy is important and what steps need to be taken in order to keep your privacy as secure as possible.

When i was looking for freedom of speech online, I found this influential article called freedom of exprssion. liekd this article the most bevause it creatively spoke about our freedom as indivuduals. This wasntt what I was expecting because the other articles online stuck to a structure and a monologue.

This resource made me smile because I have an obsession with Harvard University. What I liked most about is it answered a lot of questions that I had about how we came to this data and research. The second source was my second best one though, it was a article called "Freedom of Expression" and it creatively helps you think about what the subject at hand is.

Intellectual Property
Piracy

I found an article on the dangers of digital piracy. From this link I learned a lot about the laws and boundries of piracy. It's illegal because of the exposre it gives to dangerous content and people are regulated on this for numerous reasons. There are a lot of things parents should be paying attention to for their children but it also informs on piracy for everyone to stay away from.

Fair Use

I found this article and it has codes to follow. It helps guide anyone online who has concerns about the practices of fair use. This website provides them the best way to understand it from history and origins to the necessarily literacy for it, as well as what it is and what it isnt.

These two articles worked very well for me. They didnt make me smile but they did in fact open a new perspective for online piracy. I am now better understanding of what it is.

Crime
Risk Forum

This article below is similar to a step by step process targeting the risks we can find ourselves in online. Sometimes they aren't noticable because the online world can be very discreet but this post helps you become more aware of the internet world and how to stay safe in a online society.

Computers and Crime

This online article steers into how much crime is committed online everyday and why people are subjected to it. We lack knowledge of the online world and make our online profiles vulnerable to hackers. This article tries to help us become more involved in our safety online to prevent online crimes being committed

http://critcrim.org/computer-crime.htm

Crime online is still a crime, and people have to deal with it in a long process. They aren't exactly the same as street crimes but the repercussions can take victims a long time before the case is solved and closed. I found this interesting.

Employment, Education and Entertainment
Key Word Edutainment

Edutainment is entertainment, especially video games, with an educational aspect and the article I found is a fourteen page research journal that helps separate who might be online and where we might find them. The uprise in online gaming started with the internet and has had a constant uproar. People from all ages and competence are online using some sort of online game. These games are used to learning, stress relief and sometimes just for entertainment.

This second page I found was more focused on learning games. Parents and teachers know them as educational games and they target all sorts of differnt topics or themes to help someone learn and understand better outside of the classroom. This website really wants people to transition into all the resources online for learning.

I liked researching into this word. I didnt know what this word meant before my group had chose to research this word and that made it very interesting.

Midterm - Grand Challenges
This website wants to better the enviroment. How they do that is by recycling CO2

There are so many people that are marginalized by location, age, gender, race, etc., and to give them a fighting chance in this changing world I think this would be a great idea. And who doesn't want free college?

This article discusses ways to avoid peoples' lives being impacted by job automation by teaching them new skills in the tech industries.

I likde this part of the discussion, I found myself finding a lot of resources to chose from. I liked the online results and thought this was the most thorough to research on.

Risks, Failures and Responsibilities
For my first article I found this website that enforces the importance of privacy. People are online all day and can be using the internet loosely. If someone, a hacker wanted to, they could hack your data. Without you knowing it, they could have acces to passwords, accounts and other valuable information that's personal. This article uses five easy steps to secure the network you are on.

https://staysafeonline.org/blog/5-easy-online-safety-tips/

My second article helps users uncloak their ip addresses to better stay safe online. An IP address is assigned to each online device, and can contain the most personal information. If someone is hacked or their IP address is violated then so is all of their personal information.

https://whatismyipaddress.com/data-protection

My third article focuses on more safety online. How can users stay safe, well they have to maintain their online presence, by updating their software routinely and keeping their guard up they can better avoid online intrusions.

https://www.velomethod.com/6-tips-to-protect-yourself-on-the-internet/

The riks online are crazy, no where is safe unless the user is being mindful of what their doing online and where. I liked this because it helps me when I go online in unfamiliar places.

Anytime, Anywhere
I was so intrigued by what I found online about IP addresses that it struck me to research more. I found this online forum where people online talk about not only IP addresses but their own experience with them. I read on it how an IP address was able to stop a hate crime in our very own sister city of San Francisco. The user had been flagged for intense and harsh language, he wanted to pursue a violent crime like terrorism at the warf. With the trace of his IP address, cops and oficials were able to stop him as soon as he arrived on scene. Officials had known where he was going to be by regulating his online activity.

The author Toni Morrison recently passed away. She was older and not as active online, but all of her books, quotes and literature is online. She says "''If there is a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, you must be the one to write it.". People online are voicing how much she will be missed.''

This part made me smile because I learned about a new author. She had a lot of inspiring quotes but he also used curse words which makes her more real and relate to more.
