Peer Evaluation

I think Abdulrahman has done a great job in his games so far ! Although the games are a bit volent, they still have a good idea behind them. I like the way he used the crystals as teachers who make the enemies issapear. He is right, if you go to the teacher and complain the issue would be resolved. I also like the other game how you are the player who is the student etting attacked by bullies and you have to defend yourself from them. You have to stand up to bullies.

Investigation & Plan - Bullying Flyer & Poster

My partner and i will create a flier and a poster about bullying. The flier will contain information about what is bullying and the types of bullying. The poster is to persuade people to stop bullying.

It will say on it :

Do You Wanna Be Bullied ?

Stop Bullying !

It Hurts..

and it will contain a picture of a stop bullying sign and a picture of someone getting bullied.

This is a rough draft on what we want to put on the flier :

Bullying Is The Act Of Harming Or Hurting Someone Through All Kinds Of Ways ..

There Are Different Types Of Bullying And They Are :

Exclusion- Leaving Someone Out On Purpose

Physical Bullying- It is When You hurt Someone Physically.Kicking, Punching,Pinching,Pushing Are All Types Of Physical Bullying.

Verbal Bullying-It Is When You Say Words That Hurt Someone. Insults Are A Type Of Verbal Bullying.

Evaluation

My final outcome for my project is not the way i expected it to be. Even though i fulfilled the task i don't think i did as well as i can . That is because i have missed a couple of lessons which let my work down. Because of that i had to rush through it to finish it in the required time. I also didn't get to do the things i was planning to do. I wanted to post some video's but i didn't have any time.

These are some screen shots of my final outcome:

Client Meeting

My goal is to design a web page about earthquakes

Does your drawing/plan fit into your design and layout of your web pages ?

Yes it does. it turned out to be exactly the way i planned it. My home page is designed in the exact same way i planned it except that i was planning to put 3 photos but i changed my mind nd put one instead.

your topic and research. what have you done in class ?

I spent about 2 and a half periods researching about earthquakes. i found a lot of useful information about earthquakes. but some of the language is too complex to understand.

Color, font and the use of media

I am using the colors red,blue and brown. The red represents the blood that was spread during an earthquake and it it used for the titles. The blue does not represent anything but it is a bright color that makes the text stand out and it is used for the questions. The brown represents the color of the ground and it is used for the body text. My font is Comic Sans MS. All of my writing is in capitals . I am also planning on putting in images and a video of an earthquakes happening.

The features of Apple Iweb. What is working.what is not working in the web application

Everything is working well for me in Iweb except when i delete something by an accident i can't seem to recover it . This is a big problem for e because i keep having to start over and over again. Also sice other people can open up my webpage it is a problem because some of the text i wrote is misssing .

Embedding, What is a widget

I will upload a video showing what an earthquake is and the damages it causes .

Do you have an emergency plan ? do you have a reference page?

Yes , i do have an emergency plan and yes i do have a reference page.

Screen Shots


This is a screenshot of my iweb homepage.
As you can see when you click on each title it takes you to that page

Investigate

Why is communication so important during an emergency?
communication is very important during an emergency because if the message is not spread
anything can happen. It is important to make the community aware of what kind of information they might receive in an emergency. They should also learn what might happen when certain events occur. Giving information ahead of time will help those who need more time to prepare.By spreading the message you can save a lot of lives from what is coming. People must receive accurate information so that they can be prepared and take action.
What forms of communication have been used during recent disasters e.g Hurricane Katrina, the Asian Tsunami?
They are establishing a tsunami warning system in the Indian Ocean. The system will be based on national tsunami centers and the free exchange of necessary data among countries. The tsunami warning system will also include substantial awareness-raising and public education, and will be well integrated into other types of national warning and disaster management systems.

Disaster !

How can we use the Internet to communicate when disaster strikes a community?
the internet is a very useful resource. you can find almost anything on it. there are many great resources you can use to find out what's going on in the world. these are some useful resources i use :
- igoogle - you can find almost anything on it . there are a lot of different gadgets you can use. there's a gadget for almost every single news channel or news paper from all around the world. There is also a weather gadget informing you what is the weather like and also an earthquake tracker.

-Phones - The phone is an amazing creation . It has solved many problems for us. With this creation we can keep in touch with people around the world . We can receive messages informing us about the latest news . When something bad happens we can make a phone call to inform people on what is going on.



-Skype - Skype is a program we use to connect with the people around the world. In this program you see the people you are communicating with through the web cam and you hear what they are saying. It's as if the person is actually standing right there in front of you.



-Radio- The radio is very very old creation that is still used these days. There are lots of news channels from around the world. Every single little thing that happens in the country is announced.



-Television- We can also spread the news through Television. Almost everyone watches T.V. There are all kinds of channels. There are news channels, weather channels,music channels, and entertainment channels.


- Blogs - Everyday people around the world create blogs . There are thousands and thousands of blogs on everything. Even on Natural Disasters. We use these to send a message to the people around us.



- E-mails - All types of e-mails are being sent today. almost everyday i get an e-mail informing me what is going on in the world . this is a very good way to spread the news, but only for the people who check their e-mails continuously .
