Swiss School

THIS VIDEO taught me all about SUMAS
The Sustainability and Management School in Switzerland is the first of its kind in Europe
It is located in Gland, between Geneva and bla.
The students are happy about Switzerland's location in the middle of Europe, and Switzerland's beauty.
It is the only school that handles a masters in Buisness Administration with Sustainability.
Sustainability is the future.

This vid is about consumption and Global Warming
The key player in global warming is industry.
There is a webpage that calculates how big your ecological footprint is.
If we continue on this rate, by 2050 we will need twice the world's surface to satisfy our waste and needs.
Now a days there are many ecological solutions but people just dont use them because theyre expensive.
In Europe there are logos that tell the consumer exactly what theyre buying.

This link was about Al Gore's movie, An Inconvenient Truth.
The hottest ten years recorded were in the last 14 years. The hottest was 2005
If we continue, Shanghai, Florida, Calcutta and New York will be 20ft underwater. \
Glaciers and Snow Peaked Mountains are melting everywhere. Soon, Mt Kilimanjaro wont have snow.
Al Gore was going to be the next president of the United Nations.

This video shows a speech made by the solar impulse pilots.
They say that you need innovation and creativity to stand out in life
We are in the best moment in human kind because we are capable of designing something that can save mankind.
The meeting was held in a basketball stadium.
I know Ms Shawn won't read this, however, I am still doing it.
The graduating class was of Arizona State University.
We need to be pioneers and explorers.

There was a creation of a solar plane that is extremely slow but requires no fuel at all. It can practically fly on forever, however, the pilots get extremely tired and they require sleep and to stretch their legs. That is why I would be willing to take a PS3 with me on the trip, to be able to play FIFA whenever I want.

LETTER TO SUMAS

Dear Ms. Cadenas,

In Bogota, there are many environmental problems that need to be solved. For example, the sewage system isn't the best, not every place has recycling bins and there is no strict law against littering like there is in Southeast Asia. However, the most horrifying thing about Bogota's sustainability is the fact that we have an atrocious Garbage Disposal System. 

The thing is, Ms. Cadenas, that we don't have a very good mayor. Of course it is not entirely his fault, but he still could do a lot more to solve Bogota's crisis. It is practically impossible to walk in and Bogota street and not find a piece of litter around. That is why changing the current Garbage Disposal System in Bogota would be my top priority in the city's current state.

Sincerely,

Alejandro Samper

Growing Up Online

I Wasn't impressed

Teenagers use the Internet excessively. 

They spend lots of time online. 

They are vulnerable to other dangerous people. 

People don't know what to do with their lives without the Internet

They can't spend a break without Internet. 

People lack the ability to focus. 

People lack time to read books. 

People accept many people that they don't know on MySpace

Teenagers try on new personalities to find themselves. 

Bullying happens a lot.
A mistake on the net is open to anyone. 

There are stories of sexual predators online
People that are themselves in the internet.
Parents have no idea about the internet life of their children.
The children are scared to confess their problems to their parents.

I was impressed. 

Schools that eliminated chalkboards for data projectors. 

Some teachers publish podcasts. 

Turnitin.com that fights plagiarism. 

Some teachers are looking to the meaning of cheating over again. 

Real life fights that are started from MySpace. 

People that are such cowards that they insult people through the Internet. 

Some girls are too easy to convince to sent naked pictures. 

Parents tried to intervene in students lives. 

People get popular through the people. 

The principals considered the pictures in Jessica's to be pornographic. 

The effects the internet has in people's lives, especially when there are mistake done.
A mom that is paranoid that TEENAGE BOYS will be wanting to rape their "attractive" daughters. 

A paranoid mom that asks her sons and daughers for their passwords
More "risky" situations were offline than online\
the children that go look for danger. the arrange the meeting with the predator.
Forums for anorexic people that WANT to be anorexic.

What has changed 

People using MySpace. 

People using flip phones 

People start to sext. 

iCloud was installed so there is a virtual drive. 

Security services are stronger.
Internet popularity has increased greatly.
There are portable internet smartphones in which people can access the internet and their mails everywhere, anytime.
Internet and anonymous people can cause an amplification in the suicidal minds of teenagers.
Children are raised with the basic traits of cyber citizenship
Parents support their children regardless.
there are more ways to remain anonymous
More ways to cheat, and to prevent cheating

AFTER THE MOVIE

I identified myself with the internet dependence because I use the internet every day and for a long time. The internet is addictive. You have lots to do and you can do things simultaneously. Also, with the new smartphones and wifi, you can access internet anywhere from any console.  The internet can be your haven, your hub. It shows your real identity, especially in your teenage years.

I didnt identify myself at all with the paranoid parents that require my password. My parents, however, put an internet control thingy that doesnt let me enter dangerous sites.

GAFE

Google Search

It is the world's most used internet tool. People Google search things whenever they feel it is necessary because they know that Google will find an answer. In the top 50 most popular websites, Google.com is the second most visited, google.co.in is 12, google.com.hk is 24, google.de is 25, google.co.uk is 27,  google.co.jp is 31, Google.fr is 34, google.br is 38, google.ru is 42, google.it is 49 and google.es is 50.
http://mostpopularwebsites.net/

Google search works with labels and most visited websites. If you search Futbol Club Barcelona, for example, you will be directed to a page which shows the most visited websites with the labels "Futbol", "Club" and "Barcelona". Since it is a popular subject, the club's official page will appear in the top, alongside some photos from Google images in the left.

Google search has a few shortcuts that may be helpful when you are researching information. For example, there is a translation button in which you can translate full pages into your native language. Also you can preview the link before actually entering it, which is also cool.

Google search can be used as anything and everything. Google offers hidden services that can save you a lot of time if you know how to use them correctly. Here are a few examples of these tips and tricks.

1. Finding the time at any place in the world. Just search Time in *insert place here*.
2. Searching for synonyms. For example, if you put YouTube video ~tutorial (with the ~ in front of tutorial) Google will also search for YouTube video guide, manual, reference. etc.
3. Find the definition of any word. You put define *word* and the first thing that appears will be the definition.Ms. Shawn, if you are reading this far, leave a comment on this post.
4. In Google Chrome the link bar may be used as a search bar. This helps when you are too lazy to enter Google.com to find what you're looking for.
5. You can do mathematical problems in Google search. You can even graph things such as y=10x-5
6. Convert units. Search 10 kg in pounds, etc.
7. You can search images by dragging them into the search box.

This is already widely used by the educational society and will be used throughout Google's age of glory.
