Reflection Post

There are many things I learned so far in computers class. I have learned how identity theft takes place, and how said identity theft can be prevented, and what to do if it happens to you. I've also learned a lot about cyber-bullying. Did you know that chat rooms are where most bullies and sexual predators go to find victims? This and many other facts I have learned while studying cyber-bullying. Speaking of sexual predators, we have been learning about online safety too. For instance, never give out your address, phone number, picture, or school to someone you meet online. Certainly never agree to meet them somewhere. Tying in with online safety is password safety. We've learned things like how to create a secure password. To do this, have both capital and lower letters in the password. Make your password something that is easy for you to remember, but hard for others to guess. Keep in mind that you should never share your passwords.

These facts are just a few of the many things we learned during a few weeks in Computers class. I hope you learned something, too!
