The internet is something we all love and frequently need for many things, such as for school, jobs, experiments, , college, entertainment, specially to access the web.

What is the web?

First of all, it comes from the acronym WWW, which means World Wide Web. It’s a system used to access content on different global servers, known as websites.

What are the cons of using the WWW? Sadly, it can have its negative parts too, such as cyberbullying, viruses, false information and much more. This is why we have to take certain precautions when accessing these sites. We can protect ourselves by using complex passwords on different accounts, accusing verified websites, etc.

Copyright Lesson

Posted on by

On February 18, 2020 we discussed in the Computer class, Section 3, about copyright and copyright laws.  Since we have been creating our website, it is always important to be well informed to avoid minor or major accidents.  For this, Professor Vantaggiato showed us different websites where you can find photos and content where the author gives us permission to share and use.  The best example was creativecommons.org, where you have access to a search tab and find exactly what you are looking for, well, you will almost always find what you need.  In case you do not find your favorite content, you can always go to Google or any page, as long as its safe and secured, and take a photo, AS LONG AS YOU GIVE CREDIT TO THE PHOTOGRAPHER OR THE AUTHOR.  If this is not complied with, you will suffer the consequences, at a legal level.  To avoid this, let’s do everything correctly, inform ourselves correctly and others about this issue.
