Our Reflection

For cybersmart, we had to do a reflection about what we had done in cybersmart this year. So I will be reflecting on what I've done all year. So let's start with term 1.

Term 1: Smart Learner

On our first lesson of the year was about protecting our Chromebook. Next, we had learnt about passwords and keeping them secret so no one can go on your account. Our third lesson was about shortcut keys and learning them. Afterwards, we had learnt about private information and public information, by how to keep your private information, private. On the last week, we had made a DLO (Digital Learning Object) about vlogging, making your videos engaging for the audience by not making it long, have a good background audio, and more.

So I what I learnt on term 1 for cybersmart was that: making a strong password that only you, your family know the password - it should be at least 8 letters long, having a mix of letters, numbers and symbols.

Term 2: Smart Footprint

We didn't do much on term 2 - only one lesson.

We had to find information about other people. So we used Miss Morgan's dog, Cooper. So we found that Cooper had a blog and an Instagram profile page. Also, Cooper told his game username and password.

Term 3: Smart Relationships

We had done the Commenting Challenge. The cool thing was that I had 85 comments! We had done it until the end of the term.

Term 4: Smart User

We had a few weeks on the Research Challenge and some on the Summer Learning Journey Prep.

We had learnt about understanding search results, by learning about the search bar, filters, advertisements and natural results. For the next few weeks, we had done the 'A Google A Day' questions. There were questions that we had to answer by searching on Google. I had made a blog post about the first question, it was, 'Explorers from Kushiro, Pevek and Namsos arrive at the North Pole and check their watches. If they arrived at 11:42 am., 12:17 pm., and three am., respectively which team was first?'. So according to my search, team Pevek had reached there first.

I had also posted about the question 'This invention was initially created as a walking machine and then was tweaked in 1932 to become amphibious. But neither of these are its main purpose now. What is the invention?'. I had posted about this post named, 'What's the Answer?'. Here's a short preview of the post (which includes the answer).

The answer was quite weird. But, let's know what is amphibious? An amphibious is a vehicle which can travel on land and water.

After a few weeks later, we had done the Summer Learning Journey Prep, which was just a practice for the Summer Learning Journey. We had just done it for only one week. There were ten countries and we had to choose one of them, we had to answer: why we want to visit the place, the capital city, the population of the capital city, what is the temperature in January in the capital city, what languages are spoken are there, we also have to include two fun facts. Here's the link to the blog post. 


My favourite part: the Commenting Challenge. - which makes people come to your blog and make your blog more popular.

What I've learnt from cybersmart: researching challenge.

Well, every activity was fun. I hope you like my reflection about cybersmart. Have a cool day!! Bye!!
