1) If you believe that all students should be Web literate, what is the best strategy for your school to prepare you with this skill? Explain.
- I believe that all students should be web literate and should be prepared by schools to use web skills. Some skills that can prepare you is to know basic things like what a "url" is and what "www" stands for. Knowing things like this will make web browsing much easier. Another strategy is knowing how to truncate a website because knowing how to do this will help you to get an original website if you get a different version of this.
2) What skills should all teachers have to be Web literate? Explain.
- Skills all teachers should have to be web literate is plenty of knowledge and information about the web. The teachers should know the basics of the web so things that's needed to be taught to students could be easily understood. Teachers should also know the history of the internet and what life was like before the internet started. Knowing things like this and more would should define if the teacher is web literate.
3) What role should school filtering play in your school district? Explain why schools should block or not block Web sites.
- I don't think school filtering should play a role in school districts because when students go to do research they turn to Google. Turning to Google isn't good because Google gives many examples or answers of what your actually looking for and sometimes they tend to be false. School filtering prevents students from going to actual websites and finding information needed. I think instead of school filtering teachers should find another way to prevent students from going on inappropriate websites or just use better supervision over students.
4) Do you believe the Internet is as big a transformer of culture as the printing press? Explain.
- I believe the internet is not a big transformer of culture as the printing press. People do rely on the internet everyday though. Statistic would show that millions of people use the internet everyday worldwide. The internet affects the everyday lives of people with its trends and social media.
5) If yes, what parts of our culture do you believe will be most affected? Explain.
- No
