Digital Safety Reflection
Digital Safety
Digital Safety was the last group
project we have to do in our class. It took us three weeks to do the work such
as doing research on each group’s given to topic. I did not quite understand
what the main purpose of it was until I finally do some research on some parts
of our topic, but most especially by seeing all those information presented by
all the groups including ours. From my own point to view, I found it the entire
topic very interesting and helpful because I realized or might not even know if
I already did some of works or things that weren’t right until this last
project. However, since now I know what the dos and don’ts mean, I will be
careful on doing my work on the net.
Most of the presentation we did was targeting on network
users, but mostly the young ones because those were the most affected ones. For
example, the group that were doing a presentation on Cyber Bulling did a very
excellent job on explaining how it affect the young ones, and how it can leads
to some very bad situation. Like I’ve mention that I did not realized about how
cyber bulling can become the cause of some things. For example, I was surprise
on how cyber bulling can lead to low self-esteem, bad mood, and feeling of loss
of control (Psychological Effects of Bulling, updated in sep. 2014).
In addition to, our group did a presentation on the digital
safety of fair use and copyright.
I did not find this
very important until I did a research on it and did a group presentation. From
my own understanding that copyright means you cannot copy else’s creation until
you gets the owner’s approval. Well, I found out in my research that there were
four (4) main exceptions to copyright. And the four (4) exceptions were the
public domain, permission, legal exception, and fair use. These were the only
four exceptions you can used to copy someone else’s work. For example, works
that were created before 1894 were in the public domain (Copyright Term and the
Public Domain in the United States 2014). These were some of the important
works I found very interesting in the digital safety project.
All in all, These topics we did our presentation on were
very important, because they can be the key to prevent anybody from getting
harm, or going to court, or even the end the life’s of others. I am so glad we
have this topic because I learned a lot from it.
