3. You have learned that the internet consists of a variety of information that can be
readily accessible through search engines. This is why, we do online navigation. But not
all information is relatable to your topic and not all information can be readily accessed.
As a learner, you now have the opportunity to gather specific details depending on the
situation presented to you. Yet, always be reminded that not all information is vital and
not all information is a good one. As the generic saying goes, “Think, before you
Click!” Being an individual, you must use these engines responsibly in order to achieve
your objective.
Using your Social Media accounts, create a slogan or campaign regarding proper
and responsible use of internet. Use the tag, “#ThinkBeforeYouClick!” For the teacher
to know that you have made your slogan mention your teacher’s Facebook account in
your post.
Note: For those who don’t have social media account, you may ask your classmates or
schoolmates who have theirs to post your slogan using their social media account. Just
