Gadgets/ Widgets

Gadgets and Widgets are the same thing. They are extra features you can add to your blog to make it more interesting or to make it easier for people to follow you. 

Netiquette

Netiquette- the correct or acceptable way of communicating on the Internet.


It is important to be a good Netiquette because while you talk through the internet you want to sound intelligent and well put together. Using proper grammar, avoiding abbreviations and not using all capital letters are some ways you can improve your netiquette use.


Online situations where you would use Netiquette is emails, essays, letters, and talking to a professor or boss online.

Digital Footprints

Digital Footprint-A digital footprint is the data trail left by the interactions in a digital environment; including the use of TV, mobile phone, the World Wide Web, the internet and other connected devices and sensors.

One way you can improve your digital footprint is by making a blog. This blog can include posts about your life, posts about the job you would like to have and basically whatever you want. Another way you can improve your digital footprint is to write a Press Release. "A Press Release is a who, what, when, where about an event or activity that you are involved with" said by Cindy Ratzlaff in her video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdWmhZsJQHo. The last way you can improve your digital footprint is to write an Ebook. An Ebook is an online/ digital book explaining different was 'how to' do things. 

Academic Integrity

Academic Integrity is a code of honor. Meaning you must be honest when doing your work and you may not share your ideas with other students. If you use someone else's work you must give them credit by citing. 

One thing I learned from the video is that you can get suspended for plagiarizing. Another thing I learned was that you must cite the persons work that you got your information from, you can not just use quotation marks. And the last thing I learned from the video is once you get the information you should write it down right away. This is because it is very easy to forget what you learned if you go to do something else. 

What is a Blog?

Blog- a personal website or web page on which an individual records opinions, links to other sites, etc. on a regular basis.



A blog is a page where someone posts opinions, personal experiences, links to other sites, pictures, and many more.


On twitter I follow mostly my friends but I also follow some celebrities. Those celebrities consist of Kendall and Kylie Jenner, Ariana Grande, and a few others.


Blogging could be used to support our learning process. This includes looking at other peoples blogs and learning new information that they posted about. Some multimedia sources that this can include are, Facebook, twitter, and tumblr.


I like Perez Hilton's blog about celebrity gossip. The topics and the celebrity's he uses are a huge interest to me. http://butera-bdk1.wikispaces.com/blog+assignments. I also like a blog about Kylie and Kendall Jenner. This blog includes fun pictures and stories of them. I like this blog because it relates to most teenage girls like myself. http://kendallandkylie.celebuzz.com/
