Day 1: INTRODUCTION TO ICT
Information and Communication Technologies (ICT)

• It deals with the use of different communication technologies such as mobile phones, telephone,
Internet to locate, save, send and edit information
• It is a study of computers as data processing tools. It introduces students to the fundamental of using
computer systems in an internet environment.
ICT in the Philippines

Philippines is dub as the ‘’ICT Hub of Asia” because of huge growth of ICT-related jobs, one of
which is BPO, Business Process Outsourcing, or call centers.
ICT Department in the Philippines is responsible for the planning, development and promotion
of the country’s information and communications technology (ICT) agenda in support of national
development.

Computer– is an electronic device for storing and processing data, typically in binary form,
according to instructions given to it in a variable program.
Internet– is the global system of interconnected computer networks that use the internet
protocol suite (TCIP/IP) to link billions of devices worldwide. This means of connecting a
computer to any other computer anywhere in the world via dedicated routers and servers.
Sometimes called simply ‘’the Net’’, is a worldwide system of computer networks- a network of
networks in which the users at any one computer can get information from any other computer.
World Wide Web

- An information system on the internet that allows documents to be connected to other documents
by hypertext links, enabling the user to search for information by moving from one document to
another.
- Is an information space where documents and other web resources are identified by URLs,
interlinked by hypertext links, and can be accessed via the internet.
- Invented by Tim-Berners Lee
- Composed of many web pages that are accessible anytime.
o Website - location where there are many web pages.
o Web browser - search engine: a tool for searching.
o Web Page - is a hypertext document connected to the World Wide Web. It is a
document that is suitable for the World Wide Web.
The different online platforms of World Wide Web:

1. Web 1.0 – refers to the first stage in the World Wide Web, which was entirely made up of the Web
pages connected by hyperlinks.
2. Web 2.0 – is the evolution of Web 1.0 by adding dynamic pages. The user is able to see a website
differently than others. Allows users to interact with the page; instead of just reading the page, the
user may be able to comment or create user account.
3. Web 3.0 – this platform is all about semantic web. Aims to have machines (or servers) understand
the user’s preferences to be able to deliver web content.
Static Web Page- is known as a flat page or stationary age in the sense that the page is ‘’as is’’ and
cannot be manipulated by the user. The content is also the same for all users that is referred to as Web
1.0
Dynamic Web Pages– web 2.0 is the evolution of web 1.0 by adding dynamic web pages. The user is
able to see website differently than others e.g. social networking sites, wikis, video sharing sites.
Activity 1. Static vs Dynamic

Look for 10 websites and classify them as static or dynamic. What makes each website static or
dynamic? Use the table below.
Website URL Static Dynamic Reason
2
Day 2
Topic: Understanding the Web 2.0 Features
FEATURES OF WEB 2.0

1. Folksonomy- allows user to categorize and classify information using freely chosen keywords e.g.
tagging by FB, Twitter, use tags that start with the sign #, referred to as hash tag.
2. Rich User Experience – content is dynamic and is responsive to user’s input
3. User Participation- The owner of the website is not the only one who is able to put content. Others
are able to place a content of their own by means of comments, reviews and evaluation e.g. Lazada,
Amazon.
4. Long Tail– services that are offered on demand rather than on a one-time purchase. This is
synonymous to subscribing to a data plan that charges you for the amount of time you spent in the
internet.
5. Software as a services- users will be subscribe to a software only when needed rather than
purchasing them e.g. Google docs used to create and edit word processing and spread sheet.
6. Mass Participation– diverse information sharing through universal web access. Web 2.0’s content
is based on people from various cultures.
Semantic Web - It is a movement led by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). The semantic web
provides a framework that allows data to be shared and reuse to deliver web content specifically
targeting the user.
Factors for not fully recognizing semantic as web 3.0:

✓ Compatibility-HTML files and current web browsers could not support Web 3.0.
✓ Security – The user’s security is also question since the machine is saving his or her preferences.
✓ Vastness-The World Wide Web already contains billions of web pages.
✓ Vagueness – Certain words are imprecise. The words “old” and “small” would depend to the
user.
✓ Logic- since machines use logic, there are certain limitations for a computer to be able to predict
what the user is referring to at a given time.
Activity2. Exploration
Identifying the Correct Web Platform for Social Change
1. Identify a problem in your community (e.g. littering, garbage disposal, blocked drainages,
etc.)
2. Imagine that you are going to create a website to persuade both community leaders and
members to solve this problem.
3. Fill out the form below. You may refer to the sample provided after the form.
Community Problem: _____________________________________________________________

Vicinity: _________________________________________________________________________
Campaign Name: _________________________________________________________________
Type of Social Media Used: ________________________________________________________
What will be the content of your social media site? _________________________________

Sample:
Community Problem: Severe flooding during rainy days due to blocked drainages
Vicinity: Lapiz St. Oleander Village, Brgy. Pulo, Quezon City
Campaign Name: “Anti-flooding Movement”
Type of Social Media Used: Blogging
Website Used: Word Press
What will be the content of your social media site?

It will contain pictures of the flooded area during rainy days. It will contain pictures of the
drainages that are blocked with garbage. I also plan to update it every once in a while. Anyone who
views the site will be able to comment on these updates.
Why did you choose that type of social media?

People in my community are avid readers of blogs. Most of them follow several blogs that
concern the community.
Why did you choose that website?

Word Press, unlike other blogging platforms, has a more “serious feel” to it. It also contains
professional-looking templates that will fit the serious tone of my
campaign.
Day 3
Topic: Learning the TRENDS IN ICT
1. Convergence– is the synergy of technological advancements to work

on a similar goal or task. For example, besides using your personal
computer to create word documents, you can now use your smartphone.
2. Social Media– is a website, application, or online channel that enables web

users web users to create, co-create, discuss modify, and exchange user
generated content.
3. Mobile Technologies– The popularity of smartphones and tablets has

taken a major rise over the years. This is largely because of the devices
capability to do the tasks that were originally found in PCs. Several of
these devices are capable of using a high-speed internet. Today the latest
model devices use 4G Networking (LTE), which is currently the fastest.
4
Six types of Social Media:
a) Social Networks – These are sites that allow you to connect with other people
with the same interests or background. Once the user creates his/her account, he/she
can set up a profile, add people, share content, etc.
Example: Facebook and Google+
b) Bookmarking Sites – Sites that allow you to store and manage links to various
website and resources. Most of the sites allow you to create a tag to others.
Stumble Upon, Pinterest
c) Social News – Sites that allow users to post their own news items or links to
other news sources. The users can also comment on the post and comments may also be
rank.
Ex. Reddit and Dig
d) Media Sharing – sites that allow you to upload and share media content like
images, music and video. Ex. Flickr, YouTube and Instagram
e) Micro blogging – focus on short updates from the user. Those that subscribed to the
user will be able to receive these updates.
Ex. Twitter and Plurk
f) Blogs and Forums – allow user to post their content. Other users are able to
comment on the said topic. Ex.
Blogger, Word Press and Tumblr
Activity 3. Answer the following questions.

1. How do social media keep the world connected?

Day 4
Topic: Learning the TRENDS IN ICT
MOBILE Operating Systems

• iOS – use in apple devices such as iPhone and
iPad
• Android – an open source OS developed by
Google. Being open source means mobile phone
companies use this OS for free.
• Blackberry OS – use in blackberry devices
• Windows phone OS – A closed source and
proprietary operating system developed by Microsoft.
• Symbian – the original smartphone OS. Used by Nokia devices
• WebOS- originally used in smartphone; now in smart TVs.
• Windows Mobile – developed by Microsoft for smartphones and pocket PCs
4. Assistive Media– is a non- profit service designed to help people who have
visual and reading impairments. A database of audio recordings is used to read to
the user.
5. e.g. Yahoo!, Gmail, HotmailCloud computing-distributed computing on
internet or delivery of computing service over the internet.
-Instead of running an e-mail program on your computer, you log in to a Web e-mail account remotely.
The software and storage for your account doesn’t exist on your computer – it’s on the service’s
computer cloud.
Three components
1. Client computers – clients are the device that the end user interacts
with cloud.
2. Distributed Servers – Often servers are in geographically different places,
but server acts as if they are working next to each other.
3. Datacenters – It is collection of servers where application is placed and is
accessed via Internet.
TYPES OF CLOUDS
PUBLIC CLOUD
allows systems and services to be easily accessible to the general public. Public cloud may be
less secured because of its openness, e.g. e-mail
PRIVATE CLOUD
allows systems and services to be accessible within an organization. It offers increased security
because of its private nature.
COMMUNITY CLOUD allows systems and services to be accessible by group of organizations.
HYBRID CLOUD
is a mixture of public and private cloud. However, the critical activities are performed using
private cloud while the non-critical activities are performed using public cloud.
Activity 4. Boost your knowledge and skills

Using your mobile phones, or personal computers, and the Internet, list down the current
available applications, icons for the application, and description of the application that supports the
following:

Day 1: Advanced Word Processing Skills
In the professional world, sending out information to convey important information is vital.
Because of ICT, things are now sent much faster than the traditional newsletters or postal mail. You can
now send much faster than the traditional newsletters or postal mail. You can now use the Internet to
14
send out information you need to share. What if we could still do things much faster – an automated way
of creating and sending uniform letters with different recipients? Would that not be more convenient?
I. Mail Merge and Label Generation

A. Mail Merge
One of the important reasons in using computers per se is its ability to do recurring tasks
automatically. But this ability has to be honed by learning the characteristics and features of the software
you use with your computer. After all, no matter how good or advance your computer and software may
be, it can only be as good as the person using it.
In this particular part of our lesson, we will learn one of the most powerful and commonly used
features of Microsoft Word called Mail Merge. As the name suggests, this feature allows you to create
documents and combine or merge them with another document or data file. It is commonly used when
sending out advertising materials to various recipients.
The simplest solution for the scenario above is to create a document and just copy and paste it
several times then just replaces the details depending on whom you send it to. But what if you have
hundreds or thousands of recipients? Would not that take too many hours? What if you have a small
database of information where you can automatically generate those letters?
Two Components of Mail Merge

1. Form Document
The first component of our mail merged document is the form document. It is generally the
document that contains the main body of the message we want to convey or send. The main body of the
message is the part of the form document that remains the same no matter whom you send it to from
among your list.
Also included in the form document is what we call place holders, also referred to as data fields
or merge fields. This marks the position on your form document where individual data or information
will be inserted. From our sample document, the place holders are denoted or marked by the text with
double-headed arrows (<< >>) on each side and with a gray background. On a printed standard form,
this will be the underlined spaces that you will see and use as a guide to where you need to write the
15
information that you need to fill out. In its simplest form, a form document is literally a “form” that you
fill out with individual information. A common example of a form document is your regular tax form or
application form.
2. List or Data File

The second component of our mail merged document is the list or data file. This is where the
individual information or data that needs to be plugged in (merged) to the form document is placed and
maintained. One of the best things about the mail merge feature is that it allows data file to be created
fro within the Microsoft Word application itself, or it gets data from a file created in Microsoft Excel or
other data formats. In this way, fields that needed to be filled up on the form document can easily be
maintained without accidentally altering the form or main document. You can also easily add, remove,
modify, or extract your data more efficiently by using other data management applications like Excel or
Access and import them in Word during the mail merge process.
B. Label Generation
Included in the mail merge feature on Microsoft Word is the Label Generator. It just makes sense
that after you print out your form letters, you will need to send it to individual recipients in an envelope
with the matching address printed directly on the envelope or on a mailing label to stick on. By using
virtually the same process as a standard mail merge, Microsoft Word will print individual addresses to a
standard form that it has already pre-formatted. Simply put, it creates a blank form document that
simulates either a blank label or envelope of pre-defined size and will use the data file that you selected
to print the information, typically individual addresses. So even in generating labels, the two essential
components of creating a merged document are present: the form document and the data file. Only in
this case, you did not have to type or create the form document yourself because it was already created
and pre-formatted in Microsoft Word. All you need to do is select the correct or appropriate size for the
label or envelope and select the data file that contains the addresses (data) to be printed. You can also
preview your merged labels before printing if you want to.
16
II. Integrating Images and External Materials
Integrating or inserting pictures in your document is fun and it improves the impression of your
document. A common use of inserting a picture on a document is when you are creating your resume.
Though seemingly simple to do, your knowledge on the different kinds of materials that you can insert
or integrate in a Word document and its characteristics can help you create a more efficient, richer
document not only in content but also in physical form. A better understanding of the physical form of
your document as well as the different materials you would integrate in it would allow you to be more
efficient and versatile in using Microsoft Word.
A. Kinds of Materials
There are various kinds of materials Microsoft Word is capable of integrating to make the
documents richer, more impressive, and more informative.
1. Pictures
Generally, these are electronic or digital pictures or photographs you have saved in any local
storage device. There are three commonly used types of picture files. You can identify them by the
extension on their file names.
a. .JPG/JPEG
This is pronounced as “jay-peg“ and is the short form of .jpeg or Joint Photographic Experts
Group. Like all the rest of the image file extensions, it identifies the kind of data compression process
that it uses to make it more compatible and portable through the Internet. This type of image file can
support 16.7 million colors that is why it is suitable for use when working with full color photographic
images. Unfortunately, it does not support transparency and therefore, images of this file type can be
difficult to integrate in terms of blending with other materials or elements in your document. But if you
are looking for the best quality image to integrate with your document then this is the image file type for
you. .JPG does not work well on lettering, line drawings, or simple graphics. .JPG images are relatively
small in file size.
b. .GIF
This stands for Graphics Interchange Format. This type of image file is capable of displaying
transparencies. Therefore, it is good for blending with other materials or elements in your document. It
is also capable of displaying simple animation. Apparently, this may not be too useful on a printed
document but if you are sending documents electronically or through email, or even post documents into
a website, then this could be quite impressive. The downside is that it can only support up to 256 colors
so it is good mostly on logos and art decors with very limited and generally solid colors. .GIF is much
better for logos, drawings, small text, black and white images, or low-resolution files.
17
Example of a .gif format picture
c. .PNG
This is pronounced as “ping“. It stands for Portable Network Graphics. It was built around the
capabilities of .GIF. Its development was basically for the purpose of transporting images on the Internet
at faster rates. It is also good with transparencies but unlike .GIFs, it does not support animation but it
can display up to 16 million
colors, so image quality for this image file type is also remarkably improved. .PNG allows the control of
the transparency level or opacity of images.
Example of .png format picture.
2. Clip Art
This is generally a .GIF type; line art drawings or images used as generic representation for ideas
and objects that you might want to integrate in your document. Microsoft Word has a library of clip arts
that is built in or can be downloaded and used freely. There are still other clip arts that you can either
purchase or freely download and use that come from third-party providers.
Clip Art Icon in Microsoft Office 2010
3. Shapes
These are printable objects or materials that you can integrate in your document to enhance its
appearance or allow you to have some tools to use for composing and representing ideas or messages. If
you are designing the layout for a poster or other graphic material for advertising, you might find this
useful.

Shapes Icon under the Insert ribbon tab
4. Smart Art
Generally, these are predefined sets of different shapes grouped together to form ideas that are
organizational or structural in nature. If you want to graphically represent an organization, process,
relationships, or flow for info graphic documents, then you will find this easy and handy to use.
5. Chart
Another types of material that you can integrate in your word document that allows you to
represent data characteristics and trends. This is quite useful when you are preparing reports that
correlate and present data in a graphical manner. You can create charts that can be integrated in your
document either directly in Microsoft Word or imported from external files like Microsoft Excel.

Chart – Used to illustrate and compare data
6. Screenshot
Sometimes, creating reports or manuals for training or procedures will require the integration of a more
realistic image of what you are discussing on your report or manual. Nothing can get you a more
realistic image than a screenshot. Microsoft Word even provides a snipping tool for your screen shots so
you can select and display only the part that you exactly like to capture on your screen.
III. Image Placement
Layout of text wrapping options
A. In Line with Text. This is the default setting for images that are inserted or integrated in your
document. It treats your image like a text font with the bottom side totally aligned with the text line.
This setting is usually used when you need to place your image at the beginning of a paragraph. When
placed between texts in a paragraph or a sentence, it distorts the overall appearance and arrangement of
the texts in the paragraph because it will take up the space it needs vertically, pushing whole lines of
texts upward.
B. Square. This setting allows the image you inserted to be placed anywhere with the paragraph with
the text going around the image in a square pattern like frame.
C. Tight. This is almost the same as the Square setting, but here the text “hug” or conforms to the
general shape of the image. This allows you to get a more creative effect on your document. This setting
can mostly be achieved if you are using an image that supports transparency like a .GIF or .PNG file.
D. Through. This setting allows the text on your document to flow even tighter taking the contours and
shape of the image. Again, this can be best used with .GIF or .PNG type of image.
20
E. Top and Bottom. This setting pushes the texts away vertically to the top and/or the bottom of the
image so that the image occupies a whole text line on its own.
F. Behind Text. This allows your image to be dragged and placed anywhere on your document but with
all the texts floating in front of it. It effectively makes your image look like a background.
G. In Front of Text. As it suggests, this setting allows your image to be placed right on top of the text
as if your image was dropped right on it. That means whatever part of the text you placed the image on,
it will be covered by the image.
IV. Key Terms

1. Mail Merge – a feature that allows you to create documents and combine or merge them with
another document or data file.
2. Form Document – the document that contains the main body of the message we want to convey
or send.
3. Data File – includes the individual information or data or the recipient’s information.
4. Merge Field/Place Holder – marks the position on your form document where individual data
or information will be inserted.
5. .JPG – file extension for the Joint Photographic Experts Group picture file.
6. .PNG – file extension for Portable Network Graphics image file.
7. .GIF – file extension for the Graphics Interchange Format image file.
8. Clipart – line art drawings or images used as a generic representation for ideas and objects.
9. Smart Art – predefined sets of different shapes grouped together to form ideas that are
organizational or structural in nature.
10. Text Wrap – adjusts how the image behaves around other objects or text.

improve your presentation skills and allow you to communicate your message
successfully. The five features of PowerPoint were: adding smart art, Inserting Shapes,
Inserting and Image, Slide Transitions, Adding Animations.
Creating an Effective Presentation

1. Minimize: Keep slides counts to a minimum to maintain a clear message and to keep the audience
attentive. Remember that the presentation is just a visual aid. Most information should still come from
the reporter.
2. Clarity: Avoid being too fancy by using font style that is easy to read. Make sure that it is also big
enough to be read by the audience. Once you start making your presentation, consider how big the
screen is during your report.
3. Simplicity: Use bullets or short sentences. Summarize the information on the screen to have your
audience focus on what the speaker is saying than on reading the slide. Limit the content to six lines and
seven words per line. This is known as the 6 x 7 rule.
4. Visual: Use graphics to help in your presentation but not too many to distract the audience. Instead of
using table of data use charts and graphs.
5. Consistency: Make your design uniform. Avoid having different font styles and backgrounds.
6. Contrast: Use a light font on dark background or vice versa. This is done so that it is easier to read.
In most instances, it is easier to read on screen if the background is dark. This is due to the brightness of
the screen.

Day 1: Basic Principles of Web Graphics and Lay-Out
o BALANCE- The visual weight of objects, textures, colors, and space is evenly distributed on the
screen.
o EMPHASIS - An area in the design that may appear different in size, texture, shape or color to
attract the viewer's attention.
o MOVEMENT - Visual elements guide the viewer's eyes around the screen.
o PATTERN AND REPETITION - These are the repeating visual element on an image or lay-
out to create unity in the lay-out or image.
o RHYTHM - is achieved when visual elements create a sense of organized movement.
o PROPORTION - Visual elements create a sense of unity where they relate well with one
another.
o VARIETY - This uses several design elements to draw a viewer's attention.
BLOGGING ETHICS
o ACCOUNTABILITY - Authors must be accountable on whatever they write on their blogs.

Accountability means holding responsibilities to high standards of performance, the goal is to
produce the best content with our readers' interest in mind. They are, after all, the only reason we
write.
o ACCURACY - As a content creator, educator, news relayed, information slayer, your job as a
blogger is to give your readers the most accurate information - identifying your sources,
checking facts, never sacrificing accuracy and fairness for the sake of a "good" study. This
includes citing and attributing everything you've used, read and referenced when writing a post.
o INDEPENDENCE - means freedom from outside control or support, a blogger can write
anything he or she wants to share without having someone saying he/she must do.
o TONE - bloggers must write with their intended audience in mind. The key to successful
blogging is alignment of interests between writer and reader. It's that sweet spot where what's
good for your readers matches what's good for you. Don't focus on having a great blog. Focus on
producing a blog that's great for your readers.

Day 2: Imaging and Design for Online Environment
PHOTO EDITING
• Photo editing encompasses the processes of altering images, whether they are digital photographs,
traditional photo chemical photographs, or illustrations. Traditional analog image editing is known
as photo retouching, using tools such as an airbrush to modify photographs, or editing illustrations
with any traditional art medium.
28
Graphic software programs
• Which can be broadly grouped into vector graphics editors, raster graphics editors, and 3D modelers
are the primary tools with which a user may manipulate, enhance, and transform images. Many
image editing programs are also used to render or create computer art from scratch.
BASIC OF IMAGE EDITING

1. RASTER IMAGES are stored in a computer in the form of a grid of picture elements or pixels.
2. VECTOR IMAGES such as Adobe Illustrator, Inkscape and etc. are used to create and modify
vector images, which are stored as descriptions of lines, Bezier curves and text instead of pixels.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RASTER AND VECTOR IMAGES
RASTER IMAGES use many colored pixels or individual building blocks to form a complete image
JPEGs, GIFs and PNGs are common raster image types. Almost all of the photos found on the web and
in print catalogs are raster images.
• VECTOR IMAGES alternatively, allow for more flexibility. Constructed using mathematical
formulas rather than individual colored blocks, vector file types such as EPS, AI and PDF are
excellent for creating graphics that frequently require resizing.
3. 3D MODELING (OR MODELLING) is the process of developing a mathematical
representation of any three dimensional surface of an object via specialized software. The product is
called a 3D model. It can be displayed as a two-dimensional image through a process called 3D
rendering or used in a computer simulation or physical phenomena. The model can also be
physically created using 3D printing devices.
IMAGE FORMATS
o JPEG is a commonly used method of lossy compression for digital images, particularly for those
images produced by a digital photography.
o PNG (PORTABLE NETWORK GRAPHICS) is a raster graphics file format that supports
lossless data compression.
o GIF a lossless format for image files that supports both animated and static images.
o BMP is a raster graphics image used to store bitmap digital images
o EPS used in vector-based images in Adobe Illustrator.
o SVG is an XML-based vector image format for two-dimensional graphics w/ support for
interactivity and animation
o .3ds is one of the file formats used by the Autodesk 3Ds Max 3D Modeling, animation and
rendering software.
o .fbx is an exchange format, in particular for interoperability between Autodesk products and
other digital content creation software
29
FEATURES OF IMAGE EDITORS
SELECTION One of the prerequisites for many of the app mentioned below is a method of selecting
part(s) of an image, thus applying a change selectively without affecting the entire picture
o MARQUEE TOOL for selecting rectangular or other regular polygon-shaped regions
o LASSO TOOL for freehand selection of a region
o MAGIC WAND TOOL selects objects or regions in the image defined by proximity of color or
luminance
o
LAYERS which are analogous to sheets of transparent acetate, stacked on top of each other,
each capable of being individually positioned, altered and blended with the layers below, w/o
affecting any of the elements on the other layers.
o IMAGE SIZE resize images in a process often called image scaling, making them larger, or
smaller. High image resolution cameras can produce large images which are often reduced in
size for Internet use.
o CROPPING creates a new image by selecting a desired rectangular portion from the image
being cropped. The unwanted part of the image is discarded. Image cropping does not reduce the
resolution of the area cropped.
o CLONING uses the current brush to copy from an image or pattern. It has many uses: one of the
most important is to repair problem areas in digital photos.
o IMAGE ORIENTATION – Image editors are capable of altering an image to be rotated in any
direction and to any degree. Mirror images can be created and images can be horizontally flipped
or vertically flopped. Rotated image usually require cropping afterwards, in order to remove the
resulting gaps at the image edges.
30
PERSPECTIVE – is the art of drawing solid objects on a two- dimensional surface so as to give the
right impression of their height, width, depth and position in relation to each other when viewed from a
particular point.
SHARPENING AND SOFTENING– Sharpening makes images clearer. Too much sharpening causes
grains on the surface of the image. Softening makes images softer that removes some of the highly
visible flaws. Too much causes the image to blur.
SATURATION- is an expression for the relative bandwidth of the visible output from a light source. As
saturation increase, colors appear more “pure.’’ As saturation decreases, colors appear more ‘’ washed-
out.’’
31
CONTRAST AND BRIGHTENING
Contrast of images and brighten or darken the image. Underexposed images can be often be improved
by using this feature.
Brightening lightens the image so the photo brightens up. Brightness is a relative expression of the
intensity of the energy output of a visible light source.
Adjusting contrast means adjusting brightness because they work together to make a better image.
PHOTO MANIPULATION
Photo manipulation involves transforming or altering a photograph using various methods and
techniques to achieve desired results. Some photo manipulations are considered skillful artwork while
others are frowned upon as unethical practices, especially when used to deceive the public, such as hat
used for political propaganda, or to make a product or person look better.
32
DIFFERENCES
PHOTO EDITING – signifies the regular process used to enhance photos and to create them ‘’Actual
editing simple process’’. Also includes some of the regular programs used for editing and expose how to
use them.
PHOTO MANIPULATION – includes all simple editing techniques and have some manipulation
techniques like erasing, adding objects , adding some graphical effects, background correction, creating
incredible effect, change elements in an image, adding styles , eliminating blemishes from a person’s
face and changing the features of a person’s body.
Activity 2
Guide: Using any type of photo editing tools Create a Digital Movie Poster with your face in placed in

Day 1-2
Topic: Online Platforms for ICT Content Development
1.Facebook
Posted on February 13, 2017
1. Marketplace – allows members to post, read and respond to classified ads.

2. Groups – allows members who have common interests to find each other and interact.
3. Events – allows members to publicize an event, invite guests and track who plans to attend.
4. Pages – allows members to create and promote a public page built around a specific topic.
5. Presence technology – allows members to see which contacts are online and chat.
Within each member’s personal profile, there are several key networking components. The most
popular is arguably the Wall, which is essentially a virtual bulletin board. Messages left on a
member’s Wall can be text, video or photos. Another popular component is the virtual Photo
Album. Photos can be uploaded from the desktop or directly from a smartphone camera. There is no
limitation on quantity, but Facebook staff will remove inappropriate or copyrighted images. An
interactive album feature allows the member’s contacts (who are called generically called “friends”)
to comment on each other’s photos and identify (tag) people in the photos. Another popular profile
component is status updates, a microblogging feature that allows members to broadcast short
Twitter-like announcements to their friends. All interactions are published in a news feed, which is
distributed in real-time to the member’s friends.
Facebook offers a range of privacy options to its members. A member can make all his
communications visible to everyone, he can block specific connections or he can keep all his
communications private. Members can choose whether or not to be searchable, decide which parts
of their profile are public, decide what not to put in their news feed and determine exactly who can
see their posts. For those members who wish to use Facebook to communicate privately, there is a
message feature, which closely resembles email.
2. Instagram
Instagram is an online mobile photo-sharing site that allows its users to share pictures and videos either
publicly or privately on the app, as well as through a variety of other social networking platforms, such
as Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, and Flickr. Originally, a distinctive feature was that it confined photos to
a square shape, similar to Kodak Instamatic and Polaroid SX-70 images, in contrast to the 4:3 aspect
ratio typically used by mobile device cameras. In August 2015, version 7.5 was released, allowing users
to upload media captured in any aspect ratio. Users can also apply digital filters to their images. Videos
on Instagram debuted in June 2013, allowing prerecorded square standard definition resolution clips of
up to 15 seconds to be shared; later improvements added support for widescreen resolutions of up
to 1080p and longer recording times for either prerecorded (up to one minute) or disappearing live (up to
one hour) videos.
Instagram was created by Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger, and launched in October 2010 as a
free mobile app. The service rapidly gained popularity, with over 100 million active users as of April
2012[10][11] and over 300 million as of December 2014.[12] Instagram is distributed through the
Apple App Store and Google Play.[13]Support for the app is available for iPhone, iPad, iPod
Touch, Windows 10 devices and Android handsets, while third-party Instagram apps are available
for BlackBerry 10 and Nokia-Symbian Devices.
3. Twitter
38
Twitter is an online news and social networking service where users post and interact with messages,
“tweets,” restricted to 140 characters. Registered users can post tweets, but those who are unregistered
can only read them. Users access Twitter through its website interface, SMS or a mobile
device app.[10] Twitter Inc. is based in San Francisco, California, United States, and has more than 25
offices around the world.
Twitter is about learning and adding value
It is also about adding value to others by giving or sharing something valuable to them so that
they are able to learn something. That is why I usually tweet about stuff that I read, learned or have good
value. I have learned so much from the others that is why I love twitter. It is also about helping others, I
disagree with many ‘experts’ that say you should only follow ‘influential’ users because I don’t judge
someone that way, and because I believe the people at Twitter don’t believe in them either. I also
disagree that you should only share your own stuff otherwise you will dilute your brand. Sure it makes
sense but 24/7 sharing your own blog post and following influential people?
BLOGGING SITES
1. Weebly
Weebly is one of the easiest website builders in the market. They allow you to drag and drop
content into a website, so it’s very intuitive to use (click here to see our opinion on Weebly).
By using Weebly’s website building elements, you can literally drag them into your website and
have a website built relatively quickly, and painlessly. The beauty of this system is that you can pretty
much drag the elements to wherever you want – so it’s not very restrictive on where and how you place
your website content.
Weebly’s elements include pictures, paragraphs, videos, buttons, maps, contact forms – basically
all the basics for website building.
2. Tumblr
Tumblr is a popular microblogging platform designed for creative self-expression. It is

considered a mindful alternative to Facebook and other social media websites where users blog on a
myriad of topics.
You can link your Tumblr account to other social networks you use and you can feed your
traditional blog or other RSS feed to your Tumblelog. You can also create static pages such as your own
Questions page that people are automatically taken to when they ask you a question. If you want to
make your Tumblelog look more like a traditional website, you can do it by adding pages. You can
make your Tumblelog private or just make specific posts private as needed, and you can schedule posts
to publish in the future.
Tumblr is perfect for people who don’t need a full blog to publish lengthy posts. It’s also great
for people who prefer to publish quick multimedia posts, particularly from their mobile devices. Tumblr
is also a great choice for people who want to join a larger community. If a blog is too much or too big,
but Twitter is too small or too little for you and Instagram isn’t versatile enough for you, then Tumblr
might be just right for you.
It’s also easy to invite other people to contribute to your Tumblelog.
If you want to track your stats, you can add any analytics tracking code to your Tumblelog. Some users
will even burn a feed with Feedburner, create custom themes, and use their own domain names
39
3. Pinterest
Pinterest is a free website that requires registration to use.Users can upload, save, sort, and
manage images—known as pins—and other media content (e.g., videos) through collections known as
pinboards. Pinterest acts as a personalized media platform. Users can browse the content of others in
their feed. Users can then save individual pins to one of their own boards using the “Pin It” button, with
pinboards typically organized by a central topic or theme. Users can personalize their experience by
pinning items, creating boards, and interacting with other members. The end result is that the “pin feed”
of each user displays unique, personalized results.
Content can also be found outside of Pinterest and similarly uploaded to a board via the “Pin It”
button, which can be downloaded to the bookmark bar on a web browser, or be implemented by a
webmaster directly on the website. They also have the option of sending a pin to other Pinterest users
and email accounts through the “Send” button. Some websites include red and white “pin it” buttons on
items, which allow Pinterest users to pin them directly.
Initially, there were several ways to register a new Pinterest account. Potential users could either
receive an invitation from an already registered friend, or they could request an invitation directly from
the Pinterest website that could take some time to receive. An account can also be created and accessed
by linking Pinterest to a Facebook or Twitter profile. When a user re-posts or re-pins an image to their
own board, they have the option of notifying their Facebook and Twitter followers. This feature can be
managed on the settings page.
On the main Pinterest page, a “pin feed” appears, displaying the chronological activity from the
Pinterest boards that a user follows.
A “board” is where the user’s pins are located. Users can have several boards for various items
such as quotes, travel or, most popularly, weddings. A “pin” is an image that has either been uploaded or
linked from a website. Once users create boards and add pins, other users can now repin, meaning they
can pin one user’s image to their board as well. Once the user has set up their account and boards, they
can browse, comment, and like other pins. Users might be discouraged by repeated images and difficult-
to-follow direct linking features. Pinterest has also added the option of making boards “secret” so that
the user can pin to and view boards that only the user can see when logged into their own account.
Pinterest does not generate its own content; rather, it draws from many resources around the web
and compiles them in one convenient location for users.
Day 3-4
LESSON 8: Basic Web Page Creation
1.) What are the advantages and disadvantages of a WYSIWYG editor?

ADVANTAGE:
➢ You don’t need any scripting/coding experience.
➢ It’s simple and easy for beginners.
➢ Everything moves fluently, and you can easily preview what you want.
DISADVANTAGE:
➢ A lot of HTML code churned out by the editors is superfluous which makes the web pages bulky
in file size
➢ WYSIWYG editors let you ignore certain aspects that are important.
➢ WYSIWYG editors simply do not provide enough support and help in optimizing your web site
for search engines.
2.) List Down (3) more WYSIWYG web hosting services and their URL.
➢ Weebly Web Builder ( https://www.weebly.com/ )
➢ Wix Web Builder ( https://www.wix.com/ )
