ICT Homework

- What is machine language and how is it difference from human language? 

This language is a language that directly to understand by machine only, since the language only make out of "0 and 1" only which can't be understand by human. And we human instead of using number letters, we use A-Z letters to make up words we commonly understand.

- Who was the first computer programmer? 

That would be a lady named Ada Lovelace who sadly died at age of 36.

- What did he/she created? Explain that in detail. 

The work is original from Charles Babbage who had the first idea for a computer program but sadly in years 1871 after his death the engine was not built cause of political and financial problems until later when she (Ada) translated his article and make more design on work by adding more notes that completely tell full detail about specify on how to calculate certain numbers with the engine machine. Later the ever first computer took about 100 years to built.

Game Addiction? I disagree!

 Sure the Infographic is interesting and some of the facts might be truth (click here to see the Infographic). Yes some addiction could ruining both boys and girls but it is also up to what kind of game you interested in and how much you spend time on game.

 Here are the list of the problems:

• First is how 8-18 year old spent their time more on 'Playing video game' than 'Reading books, magazines and newspapers for pleasure'. I object since kids actually read alot from the game too, video game is also a novel that expressed itself by the characters' speech and the dialogue storyline. Who know? Maybe some may have better storyline than most of books.
• Sure girls like puzzle games and boy like more violence games but sometime things might be opposite, there are some girls in YouTube actually play Yakuza 4 which is a fighting but emotional too game which also a great game for me. While boy can also play puzzle game like Portal 2 it's a 5 stars with new characters and some development.
• They said that boys will fall classes in school if addicted to game, but my cousin played game and he got all A in classes since he is in English system school so homework is not very important. And from what I heard game actually help develop your brain since you have to be a fast thinker.
• Last one, they said that game addiction equal to drug addiction? Oh come on people games are not only about senseless violent, some game are about adventure and some can even teach a life lesson like Metal Gear Solid and Okami, and some with amazing storyline as To The Moon the tearjerker game. Video game are not that bad.

Question: If you think video game are bad influence on children then why can't violence movies or drama influence people too? Video game is famous kids while drama and movies are popular with both kids and adult so you have more victim than only the population of kids.

Motion game play is one step closer to the Reality

Have you ever heard of gaming motion? Yes, you all know them: for example for Wii console like Wii sport, Trauma Team and Legend of Zelda Sky sword, they are all Wii remote control. What about Xbox console? Star Wars Kinect (the one that Jontron did the video about), Sports Kinect, all of them contorl by kinect which is the game for Xbox motion control. And lastly is the new version of PS motion controller which is for PS3 for they look abit weird but they are surprisingly good for games like: The House of the Dead and No more heroes. They are the first step to the real motion gaming (well it may be second step for PS3 motion controller since they are the newest of them all.)

Here is a good news for many gamers, a company called Yost Engineering Inc or YEI make what you call the 3-Space Sensor, what is it? Well it is a wireless motion sensor which have gyroscope, accelerometer and compass as well as processing data capture n where you walk, and surprisingly could captured every motion that this man in the video make (the video is below), now think how this system come out for the whole world gamers, gaming would take to a whole new level to the point that you could called revolution but since that this is just a demo we will have to wait for awhile (but it's a really well done demo indeed).

Question: It is good to know that a new step closer to the more better motion control game, but of course there got to be the competition for others game consoles too, just like how Wii is the first one to start and then Xbox and Ps3 have them too now so...If other consoles release the newest motion sensor based on this demo, will it be better or be other most frustrating thing that been create again?

IMO Instant Messenger?

For those people who alway find yourself open too many app communication programs at the same time like in one half browser you open Facebook and other half of the screen twitter is open while you also open Skype to talk with someone by using headphone too? Now those of the people alway get really annoyed by this multiple apps problem but for those who still like the old style (like myself) will be surprisingly okay with this. But it's still good to at least know about new thing.

 Now IMO or aka in full as IMO: Instant Messenger for iPad, from what I know this is the program that allow many famous app programs to be in 1 app which that app is the IMO. What kind of famous apps you asked? Well first is the Facebook everyone favorite, second Yahoo and MSN very good for those who like to check their mail daily, third is Skype for people who like to call free without losing 4000 baht for 1 hour phone call and Steam for the hardcore gamers! (like myself again). Still believe me there are many more apps that I still haven't talking about. The one for iPad is for sure but there should be one for PC too, I don;t know about for the PC because I can't find the original site for IMO that allow to run in computer. 

Question: There is something that you should know that...I don't have iPad sure laugh but I still want a 3DS more than iPad but will this program ever be for computer?

12 Things That Students Should Not Do on Social Media

This article is about what things that you should not be doing in Internet or Social Media, not only those actions could make negative impact but it might also hurt the others even if you mean it or not. So here is the list:

1. Post Illegal Activities: meaning is to download any things like video or photo that didn't belong to you but other people. Even if you try to set your profile as private someone can alway download and save anything that he or she could use against you in the future. Sound similar to Blackmail alittle.

2.Bullying: This usually happen in the comment section in any websites for the social communication but some people could use them as tools to say hurtful words to others and that could led to the case of self harm from depression.

3.Trash Your Teachers: Now from my personal point of view I don't see this alot but this mean about students who speak badly about their teachers or maybe post embarrassing photo of them. This never happen alot since my country to kind of respect the elder.

4.Post Objectionable Content From School Computers or Networks: Some of the school computer might not be relate to coursework, which can led to other use like creating harassment.

5. Post Confident Information: Meaning to throw all your information that should not be sharing directly like: security number, student ID, address, full name, birthday and other personal information to others out of excitement you might be in trouble cause of someone hacking and steal your information.

6.Overly Specific Location Check-Ins: Like how you protect your identity but try to not be too much specific about it. Some posts might easily for the predators to locate you, especially don't check in on any social media by yourself or in other location.

7.Lie/Cheat/Plagiarize: This just like when you tell your teacher that you will be visiting your sick grandma for a week while you have a important paper to finished in that week so you ask for more time. But you blow off your cover by post update on Facebook or post photo about you going out somewhere with your friends that have absolutely nothing to do with your grandma. So don't be surprise when you see that big F on your paper.

8.Threaten Violence: Meaning to threatening a person or even people to be in any serious situations. This usually cause by peoples'  frustrations and violent thoughts.

9.Ignore School-Specific Policies: Meaning posting your opinions about sensitive subjects like abortion, homosexuality, euthanasia, divorce or birth control,  could damage your standard as a student.

 10.Unprofessional Public Profiles:This will affect you the most when you are at the age to find a career. So while you search for job make sure to lock any unprofessional photo or comment that could a fool or damage yourself.

11.Never Rely on Privacy Settings 100%: Even if you lock all the personal comments or photo but we can't never be sure, so try to post any in fair game, okay?

12.Post Emotionally: Meaning to say things and we regret it later just like how we act without thinking. So at least try to take a movement and think before writing something...We see this alot in YouTube specially with the case of argument between Call of Duty vs Metal Gear Solid

A 3D rendering of Apple's next iPhone?

Summary: There been rumors about a video released that showed a 3D iPhone 5 and a Samsung's Galaxy S3 side by side. Plus with another rumor about that images have leaked which was long before the video have been released today with is Aug 19. But the thing is that we and people are not very sure if this release of upcoming is true or not.

As the video was show and found by RazorianFly it is about how the upcoming iPhone have the feature of longer body than the previous version of iPhone, thinner screen and fewer pin pug connector. And about Samsung they release the Galaxy 3 that show beside the iPhone. This show as if the author try to tell that this is how smartphones but there are also some fault about that it is still not very clear if both the new smartphones will look actually the same as they were show on video and pictures. I mean really I don't really see any clear evidence or anything that confirm how could you be very sure about this? Or Is this just a fake or not?

My Summer Holiday (Presentation)

what I learned during any other class in this week

In my LA class I actually have 2 group of work jobs, in which I really hate everything about any kind group work. It always make me feel uncomfortable but I need to do it for points. First group work is about the video project which is about us selling a spray by using 5 or more propaganda tactics to make other people believe that our stuff that we sell is really good. Second is to summarize Chapter 6 from a book that's call "Catch me if you can", my job is to summarize what propaganda tactics that the main character use in this chapter.

     

what I learned during ICT class in this week

                        Well this week we done with the restaurant, my cash checker is the same place as the bar counter which I need to download the checker model from the other people and many other model of wine bottles and I think that the wine glass just beautiful (or maybe I am just too easy to get entertained by just a simple small thing). Other things that I missing is to place tables, chairs, toilet bow, maybe toilet paper...Oh! and the kitchen's tools like the freezer, microwave, sink and many other things. And if that's done then I am completely done with the restaurant.

 

iDisorder

Well, have you heard a book that called “iDisorder”, pretty much it is a book that tell about how people could have many kinds of illness that cause by our modern technology. Like for example if those kids or young people who love to spend more than hours texting on Facebook, what kind of adults we will become? I also should very about that too because I am an extreme nerd at games but for me I want to work on cartoonist so it is important to me for always keep on my imagination and daydream, they are the things I have to keep work up and can’t forget. Let’s get on with the story some people are very obsessive on  checking email, facebook or youtube more than hours so that’s kind na remind me of smoking alittle. So there is a psychologist doctor named Larry D. Rosen he’s the one who wrote the book on about many gadgets make some people mentally ill, mainly those who are already got problem or suffered from depression or be obsessive all time. Here might be examples on the book like…people who use a lot mobile device who suffered from “phantom vibration syndrome”  this happened when you forget your phone and discover that it isn’t in your pocket. And other is Facebook depression happened when most teenagers got moodswing which it’s lucky that I only use facebook for gaming (yes people I am obsessive at game.). Again there are many MANY disorders in the book so this is his words for you all, balance and self-awareness (I know it’s hard to keep yourself on those words but you are killing yourself if you never follow those words.

So I kind of think I should buy this book if I see it somewhere in book store but in my case I am only obsessive with YouTube and games that could keep me play them for more or less than 10 hours, still maybe in that book it might be at least one or two cases that actually relate to me. Other problem to me is that I am not directly mentally ill to the technology only but most biggest trouble I have right now is normal disorder like a lot daydream or shyness against other people that I don’t get use to. SO pretty much I need to find a normal disorder or self-help book to help myself.

   

The Psychology of Color

For those people who always get bore or want to find more about yourself by search for quiz that are relate about yourself so I think I might found a good one to share. So you it is an infographic that look like a color wheel and many so what color that most relate to you, they will actually have you the color and its meaning base on each colors have its own personality meaning in it but again maybe don’t believe in it too much cause not all things will be truth so let’s for fun.

So in my opinions it is good for self learning and for fun so let’s share, my most relate colors would be lavender/ purple and silver. Lavender represents the calmness which I always want my own room to be relaxing to make you forget all your worries for moment and need ready for work too because good room isn’t just make you sleepy, it need you to put into mood for working too. For silver I don’t know , well let’s see what most related white represent pureness, and freedom so I still don’t know what silver represent maybe the stillness and alittle cold sometime. Same as lavender to me it mean illusion or dream, purple or lavender isn’t just about wealth and success but what really dear to me is that lavender is a mystery color and the color that represent dream, imagination world. I like daydream and maybe white or silver also can be represent as the truth and realistic. Well this is it and remember to not take things too serious just like myself.   

Internet Safety: Rules for Kids

This article is about how kids should learn how to use internet in safety way and beware of their action. So as parents we should teach them to understand of their actions and prepare them just like by naming a user name “FatGreenWizard” which it is a cute for grade 5 but I don’t think it will be suit for first job interview. Second is about how we should help them about thinking before posting a picture, like if it is private or not, if it is private then the result might come back and bite them after. So here are the safe rules for kids: 

No. 1 Guard you privacy meaning it is up to you on what you want people to know other you. 

No. 2 Protect your reputation meaning think clearly before you do anything in online it might come back and cost you a lot of trouble tomorrow. 

 No. 3 Nothing is private online meaning people can see whatever you say, do and post in online so beware of your action.

No. 4 Assume everyone is watching nearly same as rule number 3 even they are friend or not, they still can see everything.  

No. 5 Apply the Golden rule meaning if you don’t want all this to happen to you, don’t go and do it on other. No. 6 Choose wisely meaning if you went to web sites beware again because not all sites are appropriate. 

NO. 7 Don’t hide meaning by to use username as anonymous doesn’t mean it could help turn to someone who is trustworthy or responsible.

 No. 8 Think about what you see meaning because not all things in online are real. 

And last no. 9 Be smart meaning be careful just in case someone try to trick on online.

Is this useful or not? Well to me some points are useful to me but some also are the most common things we should know later like number 5,3,7, and 9 but then again this is a list for kids who just newly know about the online world. I think number 8 have the most relate to me because as you know I like to read or listen to Creeypasta which they are stories that are legends or in other word scary mystery stories and I can’t tell which are real or fake, I know most of them are fake but then again about some of the stories can be real even if they are just 30 out of millions. 

what you learned during ICT class in this week

In ICT Class we actually start doing our own Restaurant design in which we have do use all what we learned on pass few weeks to create one, and it is not easy like when I want to design my own door. Well windows are fine they are easy to make but it's hard to a door that you want every single details about it is the same door as inside your head, which I am sure that I will regret it and somewhat make a new one or hopefully I could use the same door and try to ignore the problem. But still let's hope for the best.

what you learned during any other class in this week

We don't really study much this week so the last class that I remember clearly is Science, which we do experiment about the different between Beetle and Cockroach. A we have materials for testing them first is the hand-making box which it look like a cross because each 4 sides will use to put test material or like food or something else and it the middle of the 4 side cross is to put the test subject in there. Well we put leaf, soil, food  and rice in each 4 sides and so we put a cockroach in the middle box which it alway move to the brown box color but for the beetle it isn't matter what color the box is so it move to only leaf and soil but mainly the soil. Which it mean that Cockroach love the darkness of brown color and for Beetle alway move toward to its natural environment which is the soil.

Game-Based Learning and Children

This article is about GBL or Game-based learning, it is how we use games for education which the goal is to let kids learning from game as a tool.  There are 5 elements that GBL have to be include which are healthy, safe, engaged and challenged.  First healthy, healthy games supposed to be about to make us learn about health and well-being usually about physical fitness. For example like the game that release on mobile called ‘Run, Zombies!’ which is the mix between running and zombie apocalypse. Second element is safe, the game should be physically and emotionally safe for both kids and the elder like not to punish students by grading or only have one chance to get the answer right so we should give more chances to the game.  Third is engaged, like to create any environment where kids have interest and want to know more about in education.  Last but not least is the supported, games should be good the support for kids knowledge and need to be caring too. Last is challenged all games are often quite challenging so their job is to make the game with enough challenge but not too impossible which of course need to base on learning.

About this article I think it is a good idea but I rarely see education game when I am rolling on search something that interest me or maybe the things I usually interest in is the games the mostly involved about arts (like Minecraft and Which for example) so I don’t really care about education very much. But I do also have an interest in Run, Zombies! too which it’s a plus between zombies and running exercise, if you are a huge fan or get used to zombie stuffs I think it might be quite useful for me who don’t really like to go out very much, which I just hate and scare to go outside.
