Evaluation

For this term in information technology, I learnt about digital citizenship. I learnt the nine elements of digital citizenships which are: Digital Access, Digital Literacy, Digital Health and Wellness, Digital Etiquette, Digital Communication, Digital Commerce, Digital Law, Digital Rights and Responsibilities and finally Digital Security. I did a little search about each, just to define the meaning of each and understanding them. After I did that was assigned to research about Digital Access. I decided to make a PowerPoint presentation about digital access.

Before I start the PowerPoint I had to follow the MYP Design Cycle I was required to do. I started to research information for my investigation. I followed the guidelines on the DigiTeen wiki. I found answers for all the guiding questions on the wiki, with help from Yazan. Yazan was my partner in this project but then somehow he ended up with the group that was doing videos about bullying. Using the information found in the investigation, I gathered them and used it in my PowerPoint. After I finished the first step of the MYP Design Cycle I moved on to the second step which is the Design. I design a story board for the PowerPoint presentation which I handed in at the same time as my investigation. I had no trouble doing it at all and it actually didn’t take that much time. I finished the story board in one lesson.

After planning everything out, it was time to create. I kept a process journal, and wrote an entry every week. Day by day I’d add to the journal the things I did in class and the steps that I took to complete this project. While I was doing the process journal I included some screen shots of what I did in that week. I think that my PowerPoint will help others realize the problem that is occurring in the world, where some people don’t have access to the internet. And when they don’t have access to the internet then it would be harder for them to communicate with people around the world and learn new things about other places and people.
