WEEK 6: BEEP! BEEP! Speed Limits! or NO SPEED LIMITS!

                   BEEP!
                      BEEP!
                        SPEED LIMIT!
                          or NO SPEED LIMIT!

   
    When we heard the word highways, what comes up to your mind? 

For me, Highways is roads where the vehicles travel to different routes to the destination, much like cars have multiple ways of getting somewhere. There should be a road speed limit.   

   

     In the INTERNET HIGHWAYS, just like the real highways, there are rules to follow, the electronic data travels from one machine to another across networks.

     Take note, there is NO SPEED LIMIT on the INTERNET HIGHWAYS.  We can travel as fast as our Internet service provider allows. It depends on the cost, you are willing to pay to get the better service from telecommunication companies you engage in.  Like us we subscribe in the PLDT company so the better service that we can get from them , is depend on what we pay for. So if we had a better performance connection of Internet we can enjoy the travel in different routes to the destination. And once we are connected to the Internet we’re able to exchange information with other people. Here we can utilize the interactive  services like  E-mail, Facebook , Twitter , Yahoo and other social networking site. It can help also in our everyday life especially our studies. we can easily surfing and search.

      

       Therefore, the information highway better known as the INTERNET

       Nowadays, Personal computers are no longer the only method used for accessing the Internet.  It is also possible to access the Internet on mobile devices such as cellular telephones and other handheld devices.

      In fact, we can go online not only in our personal computers at home, but from internet café, in school, in a library or our friend’s house, and actually now we can access through “FREE WIFI”.  Just like what I’ve notice every time when  I go to mall or riding in the public vehicle  I can see  that anyone can go access internet through WIFI.

        

      Actually, children were got addicted on online games, (even the Adult)  to the fact that there are many games consoles can be connected to Internet.  Aside from that we can use internet for chatting, and other online interaction.

      

      As I have mentioned above those devices that we can use to access internet is the perfect vehicle for traveling in what we called “Internet Highway".  

WEEK 5: "OHANA"

“Ohana means family, and Family means nobody gets left behind... Or forgotten…” -Lilo and Stitch

Even though we are not real brothers or sisters, we are set as one. Like a Family. And I am so proud that I belong to the MMA family. I would like to describe them in three words: KAPAMILYA, KAPUSO, and KAPATID just like other BIG THREE NETWORKS. We belong in this FAMILY as ONE.

 The MMA family really meant for me…They love to discover new things and never giving up to some challenges. We are united. This is my second home and my second family. In my biological family, I’m the only child. I grew up in a small family. But, even though I came from a few member of a family, we live simple, help each other, laugh at the times of trial and not letting one of the member gets hurt. Just like MMA family, treats your friends as a brother or sister, the adviser as a mother or father, and have cooperation with each other. I know we are a small group but we have one heart, one soul and one mind.

"This is my family, I found it, all on my own, It’s little and broken but still good… Yeah…Still good." -Stitch

It's very inspiring, because we as an MMA student will start to BUILD our own dreams....as a FAMILY.

WEEK 4: The essence of teamwork together as a group

Teamwork!” What should I say about this word? I’ve  searched  and  read the quote of Henry Fort about Teamwork: “Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.”

Hmmm… I thought the essence of teamwork would  be  important in every goal of a team as a group.  I remember when I was in high school our teacher assigned in a group project. She said that , It is better to the understand the importance of cooperation between those who are working on a task. " Commonly teamwork is understood as cooperation and willingness to work together.”I have learned also the essential skills an individual needs to acquire in order to work effectively as a team.

 

Now that I am in college I see to it that I apply all the things that I’ve learned in high school. Until now we have assigned to make a project or presentation as a group.  I  impart of what I have learned before to my groupmates like sharing ideas, sharing my talent,  give support , give helped,  and but most of all participate for what they’re doing.

I believed that team spirit is important to attain the success of a group. All we have to do is to apply the sense of unity, the enthusiasm shared in common interest and responsibilities.

It is important to shared goals and a focus the perpormance  and  I believed that it will comes up with the benefit of a TEAM  AT  WORK.

WEEK 3: INSTANT!

INSTANT.
very fast, quick and seconds. Just like our technology nowadays, it helps us in our daily lives. With just one click, there’s what you need. For me, it helps to shape the way people communicate with one another. This allows us to stay connected to everyone we know, ones we don’t, and some that we don’t expect to interact with again. I believed that the strongest ways technologies have shaped development and communication   is how people in long-distance relationships can stay in touch and continue to be in a relationship, be it friends and romantic. Like for instance, I can always keep in touch with my other relatives and friends through Skype not only here in the Philippines but also in other country. We’re able to talk about pictures posted of one another, and share in time those experiences when we’re not with them. In facebook and twitter, I can share my thoughts, chatting with my friends and update what I am doing right now.

It is true that, Technological developments have changed the way we connect to others, and I also believed that all these new advances in communication technology are good or bad seems to be the popular topic. Now, I notice in my surroundings when I’m walking down the street, I see a lot of people with their heads down looking at a phone screen with their non-stop fingers moving. We are communicating all the time. One thing I can say that, people are interacting with one another 24 hours a day and 7 days a week in a different level of communication.

I believe that the modern technology can helped humankind improve their standards of living. Let us think about the advantages and the disadvantages of the modern technology.

In reality the advantages given by modern technology has solved many problems. It has made life better and quicker In our society. As we look at technologies progress make our society more convenient, people have experienced by social change. While  the disadvantages, affects our perception of the natural world. Whether we like it or not, we are all trap with that modern technology to the fact that we create technology but the truth is technology also create us.
