MODULE 4

WHAT I'VE LEARNED SO FAR



This module taught us how to search effectively and find accurate information. It was particularly beneficial for me as I needed to gather sources for an English paper that was due. We learned how to filter out inaccurate or "fake news," and I recognized that I still need to improve in this area. This knowledge is important to me because I want to avoid falling for false information.


 

This module also taught us how to use social bookmarking. I wasn't aware this existed, but I love it! Diigo will be very helpful as I continue my school journey. It's absolutely going to be helpful to have all the saved information in one spot. 

 

MY PARTICIPATION 



In complete transparency, I didn't give this module as much time and attention as I've given the last three. Some family issues and personal health issues all hit at the same time and took a lot of my physical and mental energy. I will do my best to give this my best effort from now on!

 

TERMINOLOGY


Digital Citizenship - Using technology in an appropriate and responsible manner.

Deep Web - Parts of the internet generally accessible only with a password.

CRAAP Test - Currency, Relevance, Authority, Accuracy, Purpose - When asking these questions, it can be assessed if the information you're accessing is what you're looking for.

Netiquette - A set of rules on how to interact with people online. Basically, netiquette is remembering that the people you're interacting with are human and should be treated as such.

What I've learned so far in DIG110      It is difficult to narrow down all I've learned in this first module to just three things. There is so much new technology out that I had no idea about! In doing research for my Canva project, I learned about Agentic AI. I knew what AI was but I had never heard of Agentic AI . Learning about was surprising, because while I knew that AI could do a lot of things, I didn't realize that it could be used on such a human level.      While looking through my fellow students projects there was so much more to learn. From rings that can track your fitness and whole body wellness to extended reality where you can seemingly enter a whole different world. The possibilities are endless!     After learning about where technology is going, I went back to where it started. In learning the history of the internet, I realized it had many more steps to get where it is now than I realized. Learning it really started in the 1950...

  WHAT I'VE LEARNED SO FAR Module 6 AR vs. VR vs. AI     The letters are similar; however, augmented reality, virtual reality, and artificial intelligence are all vastly different.  Augmented Reality is adding some sort of media to a view of the actual world.   Virtual Reality is seeing a completely different setting around you using a headset.  Artificial Intelligence is a machine that can learn, in its simplest terms.

  WHAT I'VE LEARNED SO FAR MODULE 5  1. While going through this module, the thing that most surprised me was the sheer number of social media types. I knew about the big ones (Facebook, Twitter/X, Instagram, etc.), but I didn't realize just how many different things are considered social media. Online communication and etiquette: I've been communicating online since AIM was popular, so I'm pretty familiar with the information in that area. (I also remember asking Jeeves questions, yikes!)       I know we learned about Diigo in the last module, but that really stands out as what I will take most from the social media section. I find that so helpful in so many different areas of my life.  2. I watched this when it was first posted, but after watching it again after recent life events, I have a new appreciation for the information Erik gave. I want my digital footprint to be all about making the world a better place. That is so cliché, but it has never b...
