This lesson will give you an introduction into ICT and the different online
platforms that may be used for its specific purpose. It allows you to discover the
world of ICT in general and helps you improve your skills in various applications.
This learning activity sheet contains different learning activities on the
internet and computer readiness, evaluate and compare Web 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0,
and identify the correct web platform for Social Change.
1
Social Media - websites, applications, or online channels that enable user to create,
co-create, discuss, modify, and exchange user-generated content.
Digital Native - a person born or brought up during the age of digital technology and
therefore familiar with computers and the Internet from an early age.
Information and Communications Technology (ICT) often deals with the use of
different technologies such as mobile phones, telephones, computer, Internet,
and other devices, as well as software and applications to locate, save, send, and
manipulate information. Empowering ICT is important for its innovative uses
impacts our daily lives. It has affected our ways of communicating, made our lives
more convenient, and assisted countries towards their modernization plans. Thus,
there is a need to create a foundation of understanding in the world of ICT.
When the internet was fully commercialized in 1995, it has tremendously impacted
culture and commerce, including the rise of near instant communication by email, instant
messaging, telephony (Voice over Internet Protocol or VoIP), two-way interactive video
calls, and the World Wide Web with its discussion forums, blogs, social networking,
and online shopping sites. Internet is the global system of interconnected computer
networks that uses the Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) to communicate between networks
and devices.
The World Wide Web is 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. It was invented by Tim-Berners Lee.
The World Wide Web browser software, such as Microsoft's Internet Explorer/Edge, Mozilla
Firefox, Opera, Apple's Safari, and Google Chrome, let users navigate from one web page
to another via the hyperlinks embedded in the documents. These documents may also
contain any combination of computer data, including graphics, sounds, text, video,
multimedia and interactive content that runs while the user is interacting with the page. The
Web has enabled individuals and organizations to publish ideas and information to a
potentially large audience online at greatly reduced expense and time delay.
Web 1.0 or The Web. It is the first stage of the World Wide Web evolution. It is a flat
or stationary page since it cannot be manipulated by the user.
Web 2.0 or The Social Web allows users to interact with the page, the user may be
able to comment or create a user account. Most website that we visit today are Web
2.0.
2
Web 3.0 or Semantic Web. The semantic web provides a framework that allows
data to be shared and reuse to deliver web content specifically targeting the user.
Search Engine will learn about you and your habits from each search you perform
and will gather details about you from your previous activities like likes and social
postings and present the answers as per your preferences.
USER the owner of website is not the only one who is able to put
PARTICIPATION content. Others are able to place a content on their own by
means of comments, reviews, and evaluation.
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, or
a data plan that charges you for the amount of bandwidth you
used.
SOFTWARE AS users will subscribe to a software only when needed rather
A SERVICE than purchasing them.

Online Platforms and Sites
Because of the wide capacity of Web 2.0, it has helped in creating dynamic online
platform sites. Online platform is a specially developed platform using Internet technology.
Online platforms have revolutionized access to any information. Online platforms currently
include, but are not limited to:
3. File Management Platform is used for the storing, naming, sorting, and handling of
computer files. Allows you to convert and manage files without download in the
software tool.
4. Mapping Platform is a transformation taking the points of one space into the points of
the same or another space. Uses GPS to detect location and used for navigation.
5. Social Media Platform is a computer-mediated tools that allow large group of people
to create, share or exchange information, interest and the information shared can be
in the form of ideas, pictures, videos or anything that you want to create and share to
virtual communities. It can be in the following platforms:
Social Networks. These sites allow you to connect with other people with
the same interests or background.
Bookmarking Sites. These are sites that allow you to store and manage
links to various websites and resources.
Social News. These are sites that allow users to post their own news items
or links to other news sources.
Media Sharing. These are sites that allow you to upload and share media
content like images, music, and video. Media sharing sites can be specific
for video sharing, photo sharing, slide sharing, social bookmarking, and
gaming.
Microblogging. These are sites that focus on short updates from the user.
Those subscribed to the user will be able to receive these updates. Posts
are brief that range typically from 140 – 200 characters.
Blogs and Forums. These are websites that allow users to post their
content. Other users can comment on the said topic.
Compare and contrast the nuances of varied online platforms, sites, and content
to best achieve specific class objectives or address situational challenges.

Lesson Content: Online Safety, Security and Netiquette
Date: WEEK 1 ______________________
In this lesson you will tackle on online safety, security, and online etiquette
standards and practices in the use of ICTs. You will be able to understand possible
deceptive information and wrongly evaluated data, and the importance of making
judgment calls on possible implications and consequences of making certain
information public.

Spyware – a program that runs in the background without you knowing it. It has the
ability to monitor what you are currently doing and typing through keylogging.
Adware – a program designed to send you advertisements, mostly pop-ups.
Spam – unwanted email mostly from bots or advertisers
Phishing – acquires sensitive personal information like passwords and credit card
details.
Pharming – a more complicated way of phishing where it exploits the DNS (Domain
Name System) system
The internet is the guiding technology of the Information Technology Age just as the
electrical engine was of the Industrial Age. In these times, more and more people are already
engaged in the use of technology. These people who are raised in a digital, media-saturated
world are called digital natives. No doubt, the Internet has been very useful to us but with the
rise of instant messaging, chat rooms, emails and social networking sites, it can also bring
trouble - from cyberbullying to more serious Internet dangers, including exposure to sexual
predators. Thus, internet safety is always our primary concern.
There's almost no limit to what you can do online. The Internet makes it possible to
access information quickly, communicate around the world, and much more. Unfortunately,
the Internet is also home to certain risks, such as malware, spam, and phishing. If you want to
stay safe online, you'll need to understand these risks and learn how to avoid them.
Online safety refers to the practices and precautions that should be observed when using the
internet to ensure that the users as well as their computers and personal information are safe
from crimes associated with using the internet. Below are personal information that must be
kept confidential.
2. Last name If sharing your first name is a small risk, having both your first
and last is more risky. You will be vulnerable to being searched
for using search engines which include image search. Matching
a name with a face is modus to several cybercrimes like identity
theft.
3. Middle name Sharing your middle name alone is probably not the most risky
of these shared information, but sharing your full name would be.
4. Current and previous Most people who steal identities study their subject. They can
school(s) use this information for verification purposes.
5. Your cellphone number Your cellphone number should never be posted over the
Internet. The Internet is a public place. It is the same as posting
your number on a billboard. You would not want random

strangers to text or call you, or worse, pretend that they are
someone else.
6. The name of your mother Risky, yet not as risky as posting their full names, especially your
and father mother's maiden name. In fact, you may have already
encountered many websites that require your mother's maiden
name as an answer to a secret question whenever you lose your
password.
7. The name of your siblings Disclosing this is a huge risk. Strangers may pretend or use their
identity to dupe you.
8. Your address Hopefully, you answered 'no' to this one. Giving the Internet your
number is one thing; giving them y0ur address is a whole other
level. It would be much easier for criminals to find you.
9. Your home phone number This shared information is more risky than sharing your personal
phone number. Scams usually use this information to deceive
you, one of which is when a stranger pretends to know your
parents or pretends to be you.
10. Your birthday Letting people know your birthday is probably a must if you want
to get as many gifts as possible. But having it in your profile
makes you vulnerable to identity theft.
There are numerous delinquencies that can be committed on the internet such as
stalking, identity theft, privacy violations, and harassment.
To avoid these online crimes, follow the following online safety measures:
Never give any personal information out about yourself over the internet.
Do not give any banking or sensitive information unless you are sure that it is a reputable
business having a secure service. To make sure that you are in a secured network, the
website address should begin with “https://’ as opposed to “http://”. Never access your
accounts by following an email link, instead type your URL by yourself.
12
Regularly review your privacy settings in your online accounts to make sure you are not
sharing important personal information.
When using a public computer terminal, be sure to delete your browsing data before
leaving.
Do not download or install software or anything on your computer or cell phone that is
unknown to you.
Netiquette is a combination of the words network and etiquette. It is a set of rules for behaving
properly online. Below are the 10 rules of netiquette:

Lesson 2.2 - Kinds of Online Threats
There is no doubt that you need to be vigilant online. As the World Wide Web evolved
over the years, many internet predators have been playing on vulnerabilities to attack
computers and retrieve sensitive data from individuals. Half the time, we aren’t even aware it
is happening until it is too late.
Online threat is deemed any malicious act that attempts to gain access to a computer
network without authorization or permission from the owners. These are usually done by
computer hackers who uses the World Wide Web to facilitate cybercrime. Web threats use
multiple types of malware and fraud, all of which utilize HTTP or HTTPS protocols, but may
also employ other protocols and components, such as links in email or Instant Messaging
apps, or any malware attachments on servers that access the Web. They benefit
cybercriminals by stealing information for subsequent sale and help absorb infected PCs into
botnets. Web threats pose a broad range of risks, including financial damages, identity theft,
loss of confidential information/data, theft of network resources, damaged brand/personal
reputation, and erosion of consumer confidence in e-commerce and online banking.
The following are the top kinds of online threats that you should be aware of:
Phishing happens when an email is sent from an internet criminal disguised as an email
from a legitimate, trustworthy source. The message is meant to lure you into revealing
sensitive or confidential information.
Pharming happens when a hacker (or “pharmer”) directs an internet user to a fake
website instead of a legitimate one. These “spoofed” sites can capture a victim’s
confidential information, including usernames, passwords, and credit card data, or
install malware on their computer. Pharmers usually focus on websites in the financial
sector, including banks, online payment platforms, or other e-commerce destinations.

Internet robots are also known as spiders, crawlers, and web bots. It is a software
application that is programmed to do certain tasks. Bots are automated, which means
they run according to their instructions without a human user. Some bots are useful,
such as search engine bots that index content for search or customer service bots that
help users. Other bots are "bad" and are programmed to break into user accounts, scan
the web for contact information for sending spam, or perform other malicious activities.
If it's connected to the Internet, a bot will have an associated IP address.
15
Malware or malicious software, is any program or file that is harmful to a computer user.
Here are the most common offenders in the rogues’ gallery of malware:
Spams are unsolicited emails, instant messages coming from recipients that are not
granted verifiable permission for the message to be sent. Spam messages can be
damaging if you open or respond to it.
Cyberstalking refers to the use of the internet or other electronic device to harass or
stalk individuals or organizations.
16
Cyberbullying refers to the act of tormenting, harassing, or embarrassing another
person using the internet.
Apply online safety, security, ethics, and etiquette standards and practice in the use of
ICTs as it would relate to their specific professional tracks.

Lesson 3.1 - Searching the Web
There are billions of information on the web and it is a challenge for us to truly find which
information is reliable and relevant. Here are some tips you may use to be able to look for
relevant and reliable sources:
Search Engines are websites used for retrieval of data, files, or documents from data
bases. Some search engines we use today are:
Anatomy of a URL
A URL is one type of Uniform Resource Identifier (URI). It is a generic term for all
types of names and addresses that refer to objects on the world wide web. Knowing
the URL endings will give you clues to who is sponsoring the website and help
evaluate the sources.

3. Plus (+) – indicates that the word after the sign is a required word must be found in
search. Example: +fire
26
4. Minus (–) sign – indicates to exclude a word from your search that is not required
on the result. Example: Jaguar speed –car
The web provides access to some excellent information and can also give access to those
that are irrelevant and outdated. Here is some checklist that you can use to evaluate your
website:
1. Authority. It reveals that the person, institution or agency responsible for a site has
the qualifications and knowledge to do so. Evaluating a web site for authority:
2. Purpose. The purpose of the information presented in the site should be clear. Some
sites are meant to inform, persuade, state an opinion, entertain, or parody something
or someone. Evaluating a web site for purpose:
27
Is the site organized and focused?
Are the outside links appropriate for the site?
Does the site evaluate the links?
4. Currency. It refers to: (1) how current the information presented is, and (2) how often
the site is updated or maintained. It is important to know when a site was created, when
it was last updated, and if all of the links are current. Evaluating a web site for currency
involves finding the date information was:
first written
placed on the web
last revised
6. Accuracy. It refers to the credibility of the website. Evaluating a web site for accuracy:
Use the Internet as a tool for credible research and information gathering to best
achieve specific class objectives or address situational.
