Assignment #1: Open the Door to Ecuador

1. How does Ecuador make most of their income now and in the future how would they like to make their income? 
2. What does ICT stand for? 
3. If Ecuador increases their connection to the internet what are 2 possible advantages they will have compared to their neighbouring countries? 
4. What are "Infocentros" and do you think these would work in New Brunswick or are we too far beyond this strategy? 
5. Why is the city of Yachay important and what main courses are being taught at the University of Yachay? 
6. After reading the story of Ecuador what do you think about their efforts over the last few years to become independent and a leader in science and technologies? Will it work out well for Ecuador and should New Brunswick consider a similar vision and goal? Why? 

1. Certain sectors of the Ecuadorian government would like to become less dependent on natural resource extraction as a source of economic growth. Instead, they are seeking to create a digital- and knowledge-based economy.

2.Information Communication Technology.

3. the Information Communication Technology (ICT) sector has become an increasingly important source of growth for many Latin American countries.  A report published by the Economic Commission for Latin American and the Caribbean (ECLAC) discovered that between 1995-2008, there was a positive correlation between ICT capital, economic growth and productivity. During those years, ICT capital made up 14 percent of GDP growth in Brazil, 7 percent in Chile and Mexico, and 5 percent in Argentina.

4.public spaces that provide computer training and internet access to rural communities. I think we are too far beyond this stragity.

5. the country's first planned city of nearly 17 square miles designed to become a hub for technological research and scientific infrastructure.

6.I think its very nice, I am not to sure if it will work out but i hope so because it would be good.

• I found it most surprising that digital shopping could be considered becoming the main focus, because there are still many people who still shop in stores, and stores could lose a lot of customers if they stop supplying some products. 
• I found it confusing how Paypal is so trusted. If they can trust that, then why can't they just trust the online websites themself. 
• I've purchased many things online. All my online shopping experiences have been positive, I got what I want.
• I have never sold anything online.
• Two tips that I think are helpful/important to think of when online shopping are:

1. When buying online sometimes prices seem too good to be true so be careful of LARGE SHIPPING COSTS designed by the seller to get the real price through trickery. because people may not be aware of what the shipping cost may be, on top of their order.
2. When buying using KIJIJI and other online service make sure buying is done in a PUBLIC PLACE and never send money via mail or other ways to the seller. because many people use online services like KIJIJI, and products on those websites may not always be real, it could be someone just looking for money.

• I think the biggest issue among young people when it comes to onling shopping and/or selling, is that people don't realize how you have to check where and who you are getting your product from. If you don't check all the services, then your purchase may never come, or may come the completely wrong thing. Also when selling things online, you have to make sure you include all of the information needed.

Assignment #2 PayPal

1. Paypal stores and helps you protect yuor financial information, and allows you so enjoy online shopping without needing to re-enter card details.
2. Paypal keeps you safe when shopping at all online stores, by not sharing your financial information with sellers. 
3. Paypal makes money through the fees that they charge to a payments recipient.
4. If a purchase does not go as planned, Paypal gives the customer 180 days to raise their concerns so that Paypal can help. 
5. If I were to start a business I would allow payment using Paypal because if I didn't, I could lose the customers who may not want to pay without it.
6. I would prefer to use Paypal because it keeps your financial information safe. It also makes you more trustworthy of shopping online when using it. 

Assignment #1: Shopping Carts

1. What are the 2 biggest reasons people still shop at stores?
2. What are the 2 biggest reasons people shop online?
3. If you had the ability which buying experience would you prefer and why?
4. Will online shopping be the only method in 2050 or will people gradually return to stores or strike a balance? Why?
5. Canada Post has been crippled by the lack of letter sending due to social media and emails etc..... They have decided to focus now mainly on digital shopping and delivering the puchased products. Is this a smart business plan change? Why or why not? 
6. If something is wrong with your product it is far easier to return it to a physical store. Suggest one way that online shopping could make their return process easier for the buyer and make physical stores even less meaningful. 

1.The 2 biggest reasons people still shop at stores is because they can pay in cash, and can actually see what the item looks like insted of looking at a photo of it.

2.The 2 biggest reasons people shop online is becaue you can sit home and shope; you dont have to go anywhere. Also because you can shop anytime there is no store hours.

3.I would prefur shopping online because you can sit home and shope; you dont have to go anywhere. Also because you can shop anytime there is no store hours.

4.I think in 2050 online shopping will be the only option because the internet\tecnology just keeps getting busey.

5.

I think this is a smart option because letter sending is never going to get bigger again so they might as well find another way to make money.

6.Online shops could make one place in every town where you could take your returns and then they could make one big order tio send the stuf back and they could ship you your new product or send you money through mail from the actual company.

Journal Entry #5 (Digital Wellness)

1. I found it most suprising how many people use the internet.

2. I found it most hard\confusing to watch all of the videos and answer questions on my blog.
3.I think the biggest issue for young people when it comes to digital wellness is that they dont actually read the rules and terms of aggrement.

.

1. The thing I found most surprising was how we do not realize how unprotected the sites we use really are.

2. No, I do not think they do but they should because if you do not it is very easy for people to find out information and take your information from you.

3. I would rate my behaviour as a 6, I do not read the terms of agreement usually, but my accounts are protected.

4.  Be aware of the terms and agreements.

5. I think the biggest issue is that we do not realize what actually can happen on line and how easy it is for something to happen.

"Netiquette" Online Discussion Boards

1. Number 6 and number 12. Usuallly when people are talking to you face to face they respect you more than they would on line and if your in class they usually try to find the answer out them self before asking you.

2. Number 1,2,3, and 15. All of these are important because they all have to do with respecting others and that is very important.

3. I have never made comments.

4.No, I would not enjoy a course like this because I do not like doing things online.

• 2. According to "the street" pretty much every social network has a clause written into their user agreements that allows them to use your pictures for commercial purposes.

• Facebook says that it will provide notice of any pending changes to its terms and conditions, and give users an opportunity to comment on those changes. But to get this notice you'll need to "Like" the Facebook Site Governance page, and for your comments on a proposed change to make any difference, at least 7,000 users must comment on the post announcing the change.

• Source: http://www.thestreet.com/story/11375242/4/4-scary-terms-of-service-youll-click-anyway.html

• Google is particularly interested in what you do with your time, and you can even see the online dossier the company keeps on you.

• For some services, such as antivirus software, you're buying a one-year update agreement, and typically they're opting you in to sign up for another year for the going rate.

• Netflix requires you to input your credit card info when signing up for a free week or month of service. Their hope, of course, is that you'll like the service enough to continue on beyond the free trial - or failing that, forget you signed up in the first place.

Journal Entry #4 (Digital Rights and Responsibilities)

• The thing that I found most surprising was how strict some of the rules are and how easy it could be to break them.
• I think most people do but over half probably do not because teenagers do not realize what they do when they are online.
• If I had to pick only one commandment I would choose " thou shall not create a false identity" because acting like your someone else or stealing someone's identity is not okay.

Assignment #1 (Communication Compass)

1.Digital Communication- Electronic transmission of information that has been encoded digitally (as for storage and processing by computers)

2. Advantages- 1. It is fast and easier. 

2. No paper is wasted. 
3. The messages can be stored in the device for longer times, without being damaged, unlike paper files that easily get damages or attacked by insects. 
4. Digital communication can be done over large distances through internet and other things. 

Disadvantages- 1. the softwares can be easily hacked. 

2. Sometimes, the quickness of digital communication is harmful as messages can be sent with the click of a mouse.  
3. Digital Communication has completely ignored the human touch. A personal touch cannot be established because all the computers will have the same font! 
4. The establishment of Digital Communication causes degradation of the environment in some cases. 

3.Texting, Social media, and sending pictures. They are popular because you can easily access them and they are easier than sending a letter in the mail.

4. Email, msn, and audio on cell phones. I think this because everyone already has forget about them is is using text messages to communicate.

5.Text your boss and say your gonna be late for work. You should call him or try to be on time.
Do not text and drive because it is dangerous.
do not use your phone in class. 
do not break up with someone over text.
do not use your phone in the tub because you could get shocked if you drop it in.

6. texting and driving and rude comments over social media. Texting and driving harms you because you can get in an accident and rude comments over the social media can hit a persons feelings.

7.People will continue to be more and more connected because the social media and digital things will just keep improving.

8. They should be deleted and someone who is related to them should delete it.
