Reflection- Hinson

Today in class, we viewed a short interactive clip about a boy, Jack, who was being bullied by peers, both verbally and through the internet. We were able to stop the bullies in advanced by clicking the eye-looking button. This button was there to let the bullies know someone was watching them. After watching this video, lots of things ran through my mind. I really hate the fact that people are bullied and I never noticed how bad it can affect a person being bullied. Online I appear the same as I would in person. When I searched myself I didn't really find anything bad. I believe people think I am a nice and well conducted person. The internet trolls is to make you upset and very mad. A positive result of online anonymity are used to send positive messages. A negative anonymity is used to send hurtful and mean spam messages.

​ Home Network by Sean DeSilva

My Internet Service Provider also known as ISP is Xfinity from Comcast. The Comcast cable connects to my modem/router which activates the Wifi. Then the other piece of the cable connects to my laptop, so it's known as the Ethernet. My Samsung Galaxy S4 smart phone, 3DS Xl, PS Vita and my dads Nokia smart phone can easily connect to the modem/router which gives off wifi. During my Technology course with Mrs. Hull, I learned that when you connect your device to Wifi, you actually pay additional amounts of money for having that device connected to your ISP which I thought was very shocking. I will tell other people to not have your devices connected to you ISP all the time because they will have to pay more than they need too. Also, I would tell them to call their ISP to fix any issues with the Internet.

My ISP is Verizon fios, so I have a fiber cable connecting to my router.  Connected through WiFi I have a tablet, six cell phones, two laptops, a TV, and a wifi extender.  I also have two hardwired desktop PCs and a printer that is WiFi connected as well.  An OMG moment for me was when we watched that video in class and I learned about what happened behind the scenes of the internet.  I would want others to know what they have connected to their network and how expensive it can get.

1:This was a class project on how we are perceived online, and we watched an interactive video on preventing cyber trolls, and this blog post is about the questions associated with the video


2: This video brings to mind cyberbullying, and its very similar to it too


3: Online I don't use my real name, but my user names are usually MooseMan, or DriftRacer88


4: I think people perceive me well, since I usually try not to be mean if i'm online, for example, I don't start fights while playing games online


5: To get a response, and then get enjoyment out of your suffering


6: Anonymity is good because people can’t find you in real life, and possibly hurt you. It's bad because people could post things that are really mean, and you wouldn't know who it is, and not be able to stop them

We watched I Am A Witness in Tech class about Jack, a boy being bullied by his classmates.  We watched the video two times, once without clicking the button to help Jack, and another to see what happens when we did help Jack.  The video sort of showed how bullying can happen anywhere and in any form.  It also showed how many people don't step up and help, even if they see what's going on.  

There's not much on me online.  A few of my old projects and another girl's website for becoming Bat Mitzvah are what appear right away.  I doubt people who search up my name would randomly click on the websites that feature my name nonchalantly, so I'm not sure whether I would be perceived as anything. 

The goal of internet trolls is to get a reaction, usually a negative one, out of other people on the internet.  This is made easier because of anonymity granted by being online.  Anonymity online makes the internet trolls' jobs easier, but it also allows for people to have conversations and opinions without giving too much of themselves away to strangers.

Today during class we watched a video about a kid named Jack being bullied. On the video there was an eye emoji which represented the witnesses, if you clicked the eye it would be as if the witnesses acted and helped the victim. When you didn’t click the emoji it showed how sad Jack was when nobody stood up for him when he was being bullied. When you did click the emoji it showed how just a few people standing up for him made him so much happier. This video brings to mind that all it takes to help victims of bullying just one person to stand up for them.  Online I appear as an Australian professional athlete. This would make people think I’m athletic and Australian. The goal of trolls is to give themselves entertainment from bothering because they probably don’t have much going for them in their life. The positive results of online anonymity is that people who sometimes are shy when having a confrontation in person feel more comfortable. A negative result of online anonymity is that people can harass each other without much consequence.

Bullying Video Response

Posted by Avraham Cantor in Technology - Freshman - Hull - b1 on

​

​Today we watched an animated video on bullying and its effect on people. In relation to that, we did an assignment on our identity on the internet and how we are portrayed by our social media.


The video we watched today about bullying really showed me how people feel when they are bullied. When you are bullied, even if the things people say aren't true, you begin to believe the lies you are fed and eventually this effects your self esteem. Online, I monitor myself pretty well. I don't curse or cyber bully other people. Once you put something on the internet, even if you delete it, it still resembles and embodies things that you associate yourself with, good or bad. I think that people think of me as a good kid who likes baseball. The goal of internet trolls are just to make you feel you feel horrible and to draw attention to themselves. Anonymity allows people to stay anonymous for the better or for the worse.

Who am I ONLINE? by Sean DeSilva

Today, in Mrs. Hulls class we watched a short little animation called "I Am A Witness". While watching the video I thought to myself, "Wow, poor kid.. he did nothing to those three kids and yet they still bully him." I was thinking to myself, what I would have done if I were in his shoes. Bullying has been going on for years. To kids calling people names on the bus, to physically hurting them and even Online Bullying, called "Cyberbullying". Try your best to avoid bullying because once you get yourself into it, it's hard for you to get out of it. And it might not just be you that gets yourself into it, it might just be the bully himself/herself that just picks on you knowing that you can't do anything about it. So please, stand up for yourself if you're being bullied, and if you see someone else being bullied/picked on, don't just stand their and watch tell an adult. Because watching someone being bullied is worse than being the bully!

Today in class we watched the "I am A Witness" video. The video was about a boy named Jack who was being bullied by a group of his classmates. First we watched the video without clicking on the emoji, and then we watched the video and we clicked on the emoji and Jack wasn't bullied and his story ended up happier when we clicked the emoji. This video made me think about how bullying isn't always a public issue but there are so many ways for a bully to hide themselves. There are different types of bullying too that so many people are unaware of and they don't even see it happening right before their eyes because it's hidden. 
I am someone who has multiple social media accounts, but I mainly use Snapchat and Instagram. I'm not a bully online and I haven't ever witnessed someone being bullied online, but if I ever do see something going on then I would say something or tell someone who could stop it. I don't think I'm a whole lot different from other people who are online. I keep to myself, I don't comment rude things or say anything to people online or anything like that. All my accounts online are private and although Snapchat can't really be private you can control who views your snaps and who can send you snaps and even when people add me as a friend I have the option to block them, deny them as a friend or let them add me. I think people perceive me based on this appearance as basically a pretty average teenager. I'm not so incredibly different from any other person online. I post pictures of myself and me and my friends, I don't talk about other people on any social media in a negative way. There isn't anything that separates me drastically from other teenagers my age I don't think. 

The goal of internet trolls is to get attention. They want to get a rise out of the person that the'ye bullying. Their whole purpose of cyber bullying someone is to get some form of attention from someone. Most cyber bullies remain anonymous which makes it harder for the person who is getting bullied to stop them or face them. When your bully is anonymous in a way they have more power over you because they can torment you all they want without having to deal with any consequences when the person being bullied can't stop them as easily and it makes it harder for the adult who is supposed to stop the bully. A positive point for a bully to stay anonymous is that it usually means that because they've chosen to bully you online as supposed to in person means they are too afraid to go up to you in person. I think it depends on the circumstances, but if you are only getting bullied online then that should mean that you are at least getting somewhat of a break from the negative vibes.
