Overview
Good day, student! Let's start our day with some fun activities. You can exchange take turns on asking the
question with your classmates online to make it more interesting. Answer the following honestly.
1. How many times have you checked your phone this morning?
2. How many status updates have you posted on Facebook or Twitter today?
3. Did you use the Internet for an hour after you woke up this morning?
4. Do you follow a celebrity via his/her social media account?
Now, based on the questions asked by your classmates, do you think you are a Digital Native?
If you happen to be guilty as charged in most of these questions, chances are you. You are a digital
native. And chances are formed the moment you were born. You were surrounded by technology; you are
surrounded by ICT.
Discussion
As the popular saying goes, "Love makes the world go round." But before you start looking for
someone to fall in love with, you could argue on how the internet has made the world's ho round for decades.
Likewise, in motivation activity, the Internet has made your world go round. In this lesson, we will understand
how Information and Communication technologies have improved our lives in such a short period of time.

Share the result with your classmates either in your messenger (group chat or private message) and
notice the trend on most of the reports presented.
To add to these statistics, Time Magazine's "The Selfies Cities around the World" of 2013 places two
cities from the Philippines in the top 1 and top 10 spots. The study was conducted using the data from
Instagram, a popular photo sharing application. With these numbers, there is no doubt that the Philippines is
one of the countries that benefits most of ICT.
Web 2.0 is a term coined by Darcy DiNucci, an information architecture consultant, on January 1999.
In her titled, "Fragment Future," she wrote "The web we know now, which loads into a browser window in
essentially static screenfuls, is only an embryo of the web to come. The first glimmerings of web 2.0 are
beginning to appear; and we are just starting to see how the embryo might develop."
Web 2.0 is the evolution of Web 1.0 by adding dynamic web pages where the user is able to see a
website differently than others. Examples of Web 2.0 include social networking sites, blogs, wikis, video
sharing sites, hosted services, and web applications. Web 2.0 allows users to interact with the page instead of
just reading a page, the user may be able to comment or create a user account. Web 2.0 also allows users to
use web browsers instead of just using their operating system. Browsers can now be used for their user

Features of web 2.0 QMR President
1. Folksonomy – allows users to categorize and classify/arrange information using freely chosen
keywords (e.g., tagging). Popular social networking sites such as Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, etc.
use tags that start with the pound sign (#). This is also referred to as hashtag.
2. Rich User Experience – content is dynamic and is responsive to user's input. An example would be a
website that shows local content. In the case of social networking sites, when logged on, your account
is used to modify what you see in their website.
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. Some websites
allow readers to comment on an article, participate in a poll, or review a specific product. (e.g.,
Amazon.com, online stores.)
4. Long Tail – services that are offered on demand rather than on a one-time purchase. In certain cases,
time-based pricing is better than file-sized pricing or vice-versa. This is synonyms 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.
5. Software as a Service – users will subscribe to a software only when needed rather than purchasing
them. This is a cheaper option if you do not always need to use a software. Software as a service
allows you to "rent" a software for a minimal fee.
6. Mass Participation– diverse information sharing through universal web access. Since most users can
use the Internet, Web 2.0's content is based on people from various cultures.
3. Vastness. The World Wide Web already contains billions of web pages.
4. Vagueness. Certain words are imprecise. The words "old" and "small" would depend on the user.
5. 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.
Trends in ICT
As the world of ICT continues to grow, the industry has focused on several innovations.
These innovations cater to the needs of the people that benefit most out of ICT. Whether it is for business
or personal use. These trends are the current front runners in the innovation of ICT.
1. Convergence- Technological convergence is the synergy of technological advancements to work on a
similar goal or task. Convergence is using several technologies to accomplish a task conveniently.
2. Social Media- is a website, application, or online channel that enables web users to create, co-create,
discuss, modify, and exchange user-generated content.
Six type of social media
a. Social Networks. These are sites that allow you to connect with other people with the same
interests or background.
b. Bookmarking Sites. These are sites that allow you to store and manage links to various
websites and resources. Most of these sites allow you to create a tag that allows you and
others to easily search or share them.

Good day, student! Most of us use the Internet every day. Sometimes, we do not pay attention on how much
information we share online. Below is a questionnaire about how much information you have shared so far.
Put a check mark under Shared or Not Shared.

Information Shared Not Shared
1. First name
2. Last name
3. Middle name
5. Cellphone number
8. Address
10. Birthday
How many checks did you have for Shared? You probably answered Shared in the first two items. If that is the
case, try using a search engine like Google TM then type your first and last name. did you get link to your profile
page? Try switching to image search. Did your pictures appear? If you have a unique name, chances are, it
did. Do not feel bad if it did not appear though; in fact, it is probably for your best interest not to have pictures
of yourself in a search engine.
So how did these things happen? How can search engines locate you? Is there any danger of being
found by search engines?

Let us go back to the "How Safe Are You?" test. Let us visit each item and see how risky it is to share
personal information.
The Internet is defined as the information superhighway. This means that anyone has access to this
highway, can place information, and can grab the information. Any information, even things that you have set
privately, can be accessed one way or another. This is why social networking site like Facebook continue to
improve their security features. The threat of cybercrime is very real. While you may not experience the threat
now. Whatever information we share today could affect us in the future.
Most people would dispute that there is no such thing as private over the internet and they may be
right. There are hackers who can find a backdoor even if your profile is already set on private. You have no
control of whoever is looking at your friend's screen whenever they open your profile or chat with you. You
have no control over people getting access to your friend's account and seeing your private stuff.
Internet Threats
1. Malware - stands for malicious software.
a. Virus – a malicious software program located into a user's computer without the user's knowledge
and performs malicious actions and be transferred from one computer to another through the
Internet and local networks or data storage like flash drives.
b. Worm – standalone malicious programs that can self-replicate and propagate via computer
networks without human help. An example is the ILOVEYOU worm (Love Bug Worm) created by a
Filipino.

Set your post to “private”. In this way, search engine where not be able to scan
that post.
Avoid using names. Names are easy for search engines to scan.
If you feel that a post can affect you or other’s reputation, ask the one who
posted it to pull it down or report it as inappropriate.
Copyright Infringement
If you create something--- an idea, an invention, a form of literary work, or a research you have the right as to
how it should be used by others. This is called intellectual property. In other words, the copyright law includes
your rights over your work, and anyone who uses it without your consent is punishable by law. Try grabbing
any book the browse its first few pages and you will find a page with a disclaimer with the words: "No part of
this book may be copied, reproduces…" that is a copyright page.
As a responsible user of the Internet, you have to consider that not everything out there is free for you
to use. Just like your own, contents that you see from websites have their respective copyrights. There are
several instances where employees or business owners face copyright infringement and are sentences to a
huge fine due to reckless copying of materials.
Here are some tips that could help you avoid copyright infringement:
1. Understand. Copyright protects literary works, photographs, paintings, drawings, films, music (and
lyrics), choreography, and sculptures, but it generally does NOT protect underlying ideas and facts.
This means that you can express something using your own words, but you should give credit to the
source.
2. Be responsible. Even if a material does not say that it is copyrighted, it is not a valid defense against
copyright. Be responsible enough to know if something has a copyright.
Another misconception is that fan-fiction is not copyright infringement. In reality, it is and some copyright
holders ignore them but they can opt to use their rights.

Overview
Scenario 2: you are making a repost on the positive effects of using solar energy to the environment. To make
your report more appealing, you thought of putting a picture of solar panel into your report. You also
considered presenting graphical data on the trends of worldwide initiatives on the use of solar energy.
1. Describe briefly how you can insert pictures or images in a Word Document.
Discussion
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 newsletter or postal mail. You can now use the
Internet to send out the information you need to share. What if we could still do things much faster-an
automated way of creating ad sending uniform letters with different recipients/ would that not be more
convenient?
In this particular part of our lesson, we will learn one of the most commonly used features of Microsoft
Word called "Mail Merge". As the name suggest, this feature allows you to create documents and combine or
merge them with another 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 replace 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?
Mail merging basically requires two components: the document that contains the message and the
document or file that generally contains the list of names and addresses, as in our scenario. When these two
documents are combined (merged) during mail merging, includes the individual names and addresses you
need to send it to.
Let us assume this is the mailer that you would want to send:
<<Name>>
<<Company>>
<<Address Line 1>>
<<Address Line 2>>
<<Address Line 3>>
Dear <<Title>>,
Included in this promo kit are the mechanics of our promo and
the catalog from where you can see and choose from our ©All Rights Reserved
exciting new products.
Also included in the form document is what we call placeholders, also referred to us 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 placeholders 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 guide to
where you need to write the information that you need to fill out. In its simplest form, a form document is
literally s "form" that needs to be filled out with individual information. A common example of a form
document is the regular tax form or application form. There is also a form letter which is exactly like the
one in our example above.
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 World will print individual addresses to a standard from that is already
pre-formatted. Simply put, it creates a blank form document that simulated either a blank label or envelope of
pre-defined size and will use the data file that you have 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 do not need to type or create the form

Exploration 3.1 Mail Merge and Label Generation QMR President
Now that we have learned the components needed to accomplish a successful mail merge, let us put
theory into practice. Take a look at the steps in creating a simple mail merge document.
Following our scenario, do the following steps to create and merge a simple cover letter with a list of
names that you were tasked to send the letters to. To prepare for this activity, let us build a list of at
least ten names of people with their corresponding title, company name, and address. You may use
the following fields: title, name, company, address line 1, address line 2, address line 3. Refer to the
table on the next page for the format of the list as an example. You may write down the list on a piece
of paper to make it handy and available when you need it during the course of this activity.
Exchanging names and addresses with your classmates could be a good idea to build your list
quickly.
1. Open Microsoft Word and start a new blank document. You can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+N
after Microsoft Word has been loaded or opened.
2. on the Mailings tab, from the Start Mail Merge group, choose Start Mail Merge > Letters.
Type the letter. You will be typing in only the common parts of the letter. These are the text that does
not change for each copy you print
5. Save the form document once more. You can use Ctrl+S to quickly do this step.
6. On the Mailings tab, go to Start Mail Merge group and choose Select Reccipients > Type a New List.
7. Click the Customize Columns button on the dialog box to customize the address list.
8. Select a field that you do not need then click the Delete button. A confirmation dialog box appears.
9. Click Yes in the confirmation dialog box. The dialog box closes, and the unnecessary field disappears.
10. Repeat steps 8 and 9 for each field you do not need. After removing the excess fields, the next step is
to add the fields you need.
11. To add a field that you need in your document, click the Add button.
12. Type the field name on the prompt inside a small Add Field dialog box and click the OK button.
13. Repeat steps 11 and 12 for each new field you need in your main document.
14. Click the OK button on the Customize Address List dialog box to confirm your changes.
15. The New Address List dialog box will appear again, ready for you to type in your data.
16. Type the individual data from your list corresponding to Name, Company, Address Line 1, Address
Line 2, Address Line 3, and Title.
17. Press the Tab key each time to enter the next field.
18. To add a new record, press the Tab key after inputting the last field.
When you press the Tab key on the last field in a record, a new record is automatically created and added
on the next line.
19. Repeat steps 16 through 18 until you enter all the records you want.
Once you are done typing your data, click the OK button on the Add New List dialog box to save your
data. A special Save Address List dialog box pops up, allowing you to save the recipient list.
20. Type a name for the address list. Name it "Client List."
21. Click the Save button. You should be back to your main document after.

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 from of your document as well as the
different materials you integrate in it would allow you to be more efficient and versatile in using Microsoft Word.
Let us consider the interesting aspects of inserting or integrating images and other external materials which is
categorized as an advanced feature.
Kind of Materials
There are various kinds of materials Microsoft Word is capable of Integrating to make your documents richer,
more impressive, and more informative.
b. .GIF. this stands for Graphic Interchange Format. This type of image file is capable of
displaying transparencies.
c. .PNG. this is pronounced as "ping". It stands for Portable Network Graphics. It was built
around the capabilities of GIF.
2. Clip Art. This generally a .GIF type. Clips arts are line arts drawings or images used as generic
representation for ideas and objects that can be integrated in word 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.
3. Shapes. These are printable objects or materials that you can integrate in your document to enhance
its appearance or to allow you to have some tools used for composing and representing ideas or
message. If you are designing the layout for a posters or other graphic materials for advertising, you
might find this useful.
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 infographic documents, then you will find this easy and handy to
use.
5. Chart. Allows you to represent data characteristics and trends in your Word Documents. This is quite
useful in 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 in imported from
external files like Microsoft Excel.
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
1. In Line with Text. This is the default setting for images that are inserted or integrated in your
document. It creates your document. It treats your image like text front with the bottom side totally
aligned with the text line. This setting is usually used when you need to place your image in the
3. Tight. This is almost the same as the square setting, but here the text hugs" or conforms to the
general shape of the image. This allows you to get a more creative effect on your document. This
setting mostly be achieved if you are using an image that supports transparency like a .GIF or .PNG

4. Through. The 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 a .GIF or .PNG type of image.
5. Top and Bottom. This setting pushes the text away vertically to the top and/or the bottom of the image
so that the image occupies a whole text line on its own as in the example.
7. In front of Text. As it suggests, this setting allows your image to be place right on top of the text as if
your image was dropped right on it. That means whatever part of the text you place the image on, it
will be covered by the image. In our example below, notice the difference between using a .PNG file
(on the left) with a transparency effect, and a .JPG file on the right.

Discussion
Whether your work is in the field of accounting or not, the truth is whether you do should be accounted
for. This is because the resources you use cost you experienses. Whether you become a scienctist, an
engineer, a yoga instructor, a bartender, or an airline pilot, it is important to understand how a company
spends its resources to be abble to deliver a product or services. These factors could easily be computed
using spreadsheet programs like Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets.
Product Information
Product Description:
Starbuko Milk Teaa is a special milk tea using organic ingredients especially
made for Filipinos.
Let's assume that we are going to sell milk tea with the following information:
We will use Microsoft Excel to find out if our estimated sale price is reasonable considering the actual price of
the ingredients.
Note: Values with PHP or Philippine peso sign use the Accounting Number format. Its default usese
the dollar symbol ($). To change this, click the drop-down arrow at the currency button $ then select
More accounting Formats, then change the symbol to PHP.
2. Use the SUM formula to get the summation of the values from cells C4 to C7. The SUM formula is
=SUM(C4:C7). Type this on cell C8 as shown below:
3. Check if our estimated price will earn us profit. Type the additional information shown below then
apply the arithmetic formula for subtraction:
5. The result is Php7.80. This is definitely profitable at this price. However, this does not guarantee our
product's success.
Now it is your group's turn to do this for your own product. Remember to research on the
ingredient's price if applicable, divide the quantity of a certain ingredient sp that its cost will only cover
one serving. For instance, a 300 ml condensed milk will cover about three servings of milk tea, so you
have to devide its price by three.
As seen in the exercise above, we must first ensure that the selling price is
greater than the total cost of ingredients. However, these ingredients only represent the
cost per unit, also known as the variable cost of the product. This does not yet include the
variable involved in actually producing the product, which include electricity, rent, labor,
etc. all these overhead experiencing, which are incurred whether or not you produce any
milk tea, are also known as fixed costs.
Suggestions or comments:
Produce your sample product for the actual product testing. The sample product should be for 15 to
20 people. Start the product testing in your school by letting your fellow students, teachers, and/or personnel
to taste/test your product. Afterward, gather the data and place them in Microsoft Excel. A sample of this
spreadsheet is on the next page using the milk tea product example.
Tip: To change the orientation of a text, press Ctrl + 1 to open the Format Cells dialog
box. Choose Alignment tab and under Orientation, specify the degrees you want.
AVERAGE Function
Let us start bby a simple average formula to determine the everage rating of Quality, Taste,
Presentation, and Product.
The syntax would be =AVERAGE(cells involved).
Example:
Using Figure 4.1, determine the average for Quality:
=AVERAGE (F5:F19)
Determine the average for all your criteria and place then at the buttom of your survey results similar to the
screeshot below:
COUNTIF Function
Next, determine how many people said YES or NO if they were satisfied with the product or if they
would recommend it to their friend. For this, we will use the COUNTIF function.
Usng the =COUNT function will allow us to count the number of cells that contains something.
However, in this case, we just need to count the ones that have YES or NO in them. For this, we have to use
the COUNTIF function.
COUNTIF Function Syntax:
=COUNTIF (range, criteria)
Rage – the cells where the counting will take place
Criteria – the label or value that determines if it is to be counted.
Example:
Using Figure 1.9, the formula for getting the number of YES for the criteria is =COUNTIF(J5:J19,"
YES")
Tip: if comma (,) does not work, try using semicolon (;) in separating the formula. Thus, it would be =
COUNTIF (J5:J19;” YES”). This is because of the language settings of using semicolon instead of
comma. To use commas in separating Excel formulas, change the List Separator in the Language

Determine the number of YES answer in both criteria and plae them at the bottom of your survey
result similar to the screenshot below:
If we were to determine if we should sell our product or services to teachers or students, we can use the
AVERAGEIF function.
AVERAGEIF Function
Using the AVERAGEIF Function, we can average a range if the cell beside it equals to "teacher"
and/or "student".
AVRAGEIF uses the following syntax:
= AVERAGEIF (range, criteria, avarage range)
Range – the range of cells where you want to look for the criteria
Criteria – a value or label that determines if a cell is part of the range to be averaged
Average Range (optional) – the actual range of cells that will be averaged, of omitted, the range will be
used instead
Example:
Using figure 4.1
With this, we can definitely say that the teachers rated the product higher.
In other instances, you may also want to use the SUMIF function which works similarly to the
AVERAGEIF function, except that it gets the summation rather than the average.
Checkpoint
Using the formulas you have learned, accomplish the following by analyzing your data. Use the data
you have gathered.
1. Determine the number of people who are willing to pay certain amount.
2. How many of the certain group (e.g., teachers/student) are willing to pay more?

Take not that there are other factors that you have not encountered in your simulation. It is important to take
into consideration the following costs:
1. Fixed Costs:
a) Rents – how much do you pay for renting the area where your products are sold?
b) Salaries – how much do you pay for people who are working make this venture a success?
c) Utilities – how much do you pay for water and electricity (if applicable)?
d) Interest – since you are a student, your money may have come from your parentsd. Treat your parents
as if they are a bank wherein the money you loand=ed from them would have certain interest.
2. Other costs:
a) Maintenance – how much money is spent in maintaining machines and instruments that are use to
make the product of deliver the service?
b) Training – how much money is spent for training your staff?
c) Research – how much money is spent in researching all about your product? This invovle manpower,
ulitiy bills and even transportation costs for the researchers.
d) Advertising – how much money is spent in promoting your product? Whether it is online (electricity)
and/or prints (ink and paper), you still spent money.

Overview
Good day, students! It is no time for your group to present the result of your small business venture in class.
What is better way to present it but with the use of a presentation tool.
Below is a list of presentation tools. Research about them and write their advantages and disadvantages.
2. Prezi
3. Apple Keynote
4. Google Slides
5. Haiku Deck
6. PhotoSnack
You are free to decide which presentation tool/program you can use.
There are plenty of tools yu can use to present data. Whether it is scientific data, statistical, or a book
report, a presentation tool has you covered.
Designing your presentation is the fun part of creating a report for it gives you a chancw to be creative. Palcing
animations, trandsitions, and art could be on your mind right now. But whether or not these features would
help is generally up to you. Sometimes, these things could actually distract your audience rather than help
them. Here are some quick tips in creating an effective presentation.
1. Minimize. Keep slide count to a minimum to maintain a clear message and to keep the audience
attetnive. Remember that the presentation is just a visual aid.
Most of the information should still come from the reporter.
2. Clarity. Avoid being fancy by using a font style that is easy to read. Make sure it is also big enough to
be read by the audience. Once yu start making your presentation, consider how big the screen is
during your report.
3.
Tip: A font size of 72 is about an inch (depends on the screen size). A one-inch
letter is readable 10 feet away; a two-inch letter is readable 20 feet away.
Simplicity. Use bullets or short sentences. Summarize the information on the screen to make the audience
focus on what the reporter is saying than on reading the slide. Limit the content to six lines seven
words per line. This is known as the 6 x 7 rule.
4. Visuals. Use graphics to help in your presentation; however, too many graphic may graphic may
distract the audience. In addition, instead of using tables for data represenation, use charts and
graphs.
5. Consistency. Make your design uniform. Avoid having different font style and background per slide.
6. Contrast. Use a light font on a dark background or vice versa. This will make the text 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.
Now that you know the tips, it is now time to create a presentation about the results of yur product selling.
Use the guide below for your presentation. Remember that it is only a guide and it is up to you to make
appropriate changes. It is also wise to place the information in a Word file before placing it in the presentation.

Links Options:
a. Existing File or Web Page – create a hyperlink to website or a local file saved in your hard
drive. Just browse your file in the dialog box or type the web address.
b. Place in This Document- creates a hyperlink that allows you to jump to a specific slide in your
presentation.
c. Create a New Document- creates a hyperlink that once clicked, creates a new document on
your specified location.
d. E-mail Address- creates a hyperlink that opens Microsoft Outlook that automatically adds your
specified recipient on a new email.
Tips: Notice how the word you selected is now underlined and is colored
blue that changes to purple whenever the link is previously visited.
Embedded objects is easy using Microsoft PowerPoint. With this option, you can insert an Excel file
that would look like a table to a presentation.
Options:
Reference
1. Insert Action buttons on your presentation (action buttons are found in Insert>Shapes).
2. Create action buttons that will allow you to navigate to the next slide, previous slide, and first slide.
3. Insert hidden slides at the end of your presentation then insert an object containing your Excel files.
Create hyperlinks to this slides that contain the charts corresponding to the data.
2. Cite three instances where objects can help you improve your presentation.

Learning Module 6: Imaging and Designing for Online Environment
Learning Competencies:
The learners:
1. evaluate existing websites and online resources based on the principles of layout, graphic, and visual
message design;
2. use image manipulation techniques on existing images to change or enhance their current state to
communicate a message for a specific purpose;
3. create an original or derivative ICT content to effectively communicate a visual message in an online
environment related to specific professional tracks.
Overview
What is the most visited website in the world? Think about it for a second. No, it is not Facebook nor
Twitter. Here is a clue, the sites mission statement is “to organize the world’s information and make it
universally accessible and useful. “you have probably guessed it by now--it is Google. On December 2017,
Alexa.com, a renowned website for ranking webpage popularity, rank google as the number one website in the
entire world. Why do you think Google ranks number one despite the countless search engines and websites
in the Internet?
1. Balance- the visual weigth of objects, texture, colors, and space is evenly distributed on the screen.
When visiting a website, check if one side holds the same amount of weight on the other. The colors
should also have a similar visual weight.
2. Emphasis- area in the design that may appear different in size, texture, shape, or color to attract the
viewer’s attention.
3. Movement- visual element that guides the viewer’s eyes around the screen.
4. Pattern, Repitition, and Rhythm – the repeating visual element in an image or layout to create unity in
the layout or image. Rhythm is achieved when visual elements creates a sense of organized
movement.
5. Proportion- visual element that creates a sense of unity where they relate well with one another.
Infographics
Information Graphics or Infrographics are used to represent information, statistical data, or knowledge
in a graphical manner usually done in a creative way to attract the viewer’s attention. Infographics make
complex more visually appealing to an average user.
Retrieve your data from Lesson 4’s Take the Challenge. We will create an Onfographic of your
customer’s age range using piktochart.com, a free online app that allows you to create your own inforgraphic.
Each member of the group will create his/her own infographic using the same data.
2. Fill out the sign up page with the information needed; alternatively, you can connect with Google+ or
Facebook.
4. Click Create New on the upper leftt hand corner of the screen then select Infographic then a template
that you want.
6. While editing a block , you can use the various tools on the left side of the page:
a. Graphics- Allows you to insert lines, shapes, icons, and evenphotos;
b. Uploads- allows you to browse and upload images from your local disk for your infographic;
c. Background – changes the background of a selected block;
d. Text- allows you to insert text to your infogrpahic with the option to add textframes;
e. Color scheme- allows you to modify or create new color scheme of your infographic; and
f. Tools- allows you to create charts (similar to the one in PowerPoint), maps (for demographic),
add videos.
Editing Tips:
Unlike images that are found in our computer, you have to consider that website image should be
more compressed because data travels over the intenet ad nor everyone has Internet connection.
Cosequently, we have to use compressed images on our websites. Likewise, even though a wide variety of
websites already support high-definition (HD) photos, you do not have to use HD all the time. In fatc, most of
the time, you do not really have to.
There are plenty of other image file formats used in the web but most of the time you will be using
these three because of their compatibility with all major web browser.
When inserting text tp a web page, you can simply copy a text to your HTML editor, or you can upload
it on a website as a PDF file. Most browsers support “add-ons” so that you can open PDF files without leaving
the browser.
Personal websites do not necessarily have to downsize the file size of the images. But if you have a wider
target audience, you need to make necessary changes. Here are some tips to help you edit images for your
website:
1. Choose the right file format. Try to make a real-life photograph into GIF to see the difference between
PNG, GIF, anf JPEG. Knowing the purpose is the key to finding out the best file format.
2. Choose the right image size. A camera with 12 megapixels constitutes to a bigger image size. Monitor
has a resolution limit, so even if you have million megapixels, it will not siplay everything. Thus, it is
not always wise to make our image big, most especially in a website. Know how much space you want
the image to consume. Or have a “preview” image where the audience has the option to “ see full
size”.
3. Caption. Remember to put caption on imahes whenever possible. If it is not related to the webpage,
then remove it.
There are plenty of image manipulation tools but if you are going to create a website, you have to use
the one which is efficient. Photoscapeis a good tool because it is feasible for beginners and advanced user
alike.
On the photoscape’s main screen, you will see its various features that you can use for creating web content
as follows:
1. Viewer- picture viewer that has the same featurea with most image viewers (e.g., changing image
orientation)
2. Editor- alters the appearance of a single image
3. Batch Editor- alters the appearance of multiple images
4. Page- arranges several photos to create a single one; similar to mosaic
5. Combine- links several images together to form a bigger image
6. Animated GIF- allows you to create an animated GIF from several pictures
7. Print- readies picture for printing
8. Splitter- divides a single photo into multiple parts
9. Screen Capture- captures the screen and saves it
10. Color Picker- grabs a pixel from your screen to be used in editing
11. Raw Converter- converts raw images (uncompressed images usually from digital camera) to JPEG
For this lesson, we will only focus on the ones that we can use for our future website project: the Editor and
Batch Editor.
Editor Edit
For this exercise, take a photo form your camera. It can be a “selfie”, a “groufie,” or a random photo.
Make sure that you are the one who took it and it is worth spending time with editing. Once you have it ready,
place it on your computer in a directory most convenient to you.
upper left.
3. Once you have selected the folder, you will see a preview of all
the images found on that folder at the bottom of the file
explorer.
On the image above, notice that the phtot is 4000 x 3000pixels and has a size of 3.3 MB. Most
monitors today do not support the resolution and would probably fill up the entire webpage. Due to
this big resolution, th file size is affected even though this is HPG file.
6. Manipulate the image using the tools on the bottom.
a. Home tab- this is where you can add a frame, resize, sharpen, and add filters and effects to
your image.
if you have similar problem as mentioned in the previous step, try to reduce the size of the
image. Most monitors with the aspect ratio of 16:9 support resolutions 1366 x 768. Tyr to
resize your image to lower than 800.
b. Object tab- this is where youcan place a wide variety of images like texts, shapes, and
symbols.
d. Tools- includes other tools like red eye correction, mole rmeoval, mosaic effect, and brush
tools. For more information about the tool, simply click it and a tip will be displayed describing
how to use it.
7. Click Save located on the lower right of the program. The Save As dialog box will appear. Save it in
your activities folder with the file name editorexer.jpg. check the file size and see how much space you
saved.
Batch Edit
Batch editing is one of the most useful tools when you create a gallery of photos for a wbesite. You
can make their sizes uniform to what you have specified. For this exercise, you will need to take atleast ten
pictures and save in your desired folder. It is highly recommended that your photos share the same orientation
(portrait or landscape).
1. Select the folder where your photos are located, then on the Preview window, draf the photots you
want tro be part of the batch edit to the work area (center)
2. Use the tools on the right edit your photo. This is similar to the options in edit except the Crop
and Tools which are replace by the Filters tab. The filters tab is used to ass a certain filter that will
apply to all your photos..
3. Resize the pictures so that they do not exceed 800 pixels in width. Add filters if you want.
Sharing your photos over the internet has never been so easy using social media. However, it is highly
recommended to put your social media photos private and separated from the ones that are posted over the
Internet. In that case, you need an image host. Image host are websites specializing in storing photographs.
This photographs can easily be embedded to a webpage or website.
There are plenty of image hosting sites out there; some of them have fee while others are free where
you can pay for more storage space or badwith. Storage space is pretty straightforward; it is like having a
16GB flash drive where it limits you to just 16GB. Bandwith limits hinder an access to your image once a
certain bandwith qouta is reached (measured by megabytes or gigabytes). This qouta is reached when a lot of
people have loaded the image using their own computers on a certain amount of time (usually by a monthly
basis).
2. Once your account is set up and you are already logged in, click the Upload Images button.
3. A new page will load allowing you to drag and drop your photos or to choose them manually or the
entire folder to upload. Select a folder, add a password(optional), then feel free to upload any photos
you have right then.
4. Once selected, a progress bar will appear indicating that the image is uploading. This may take a
moemnt and will depend on your Internet connection.
5. Once you are done you can add it on Your Bucket. As you select a photo you will see these indicators:
a. Deselect
b. Add Album – creates an album
c. Share -shares everything you just uploaded plus the other contents of your specified folder
d. Image Edit - uses Photobucket’s photo editing tools to manipulate your image
e. Image Detail- shows details of photos
f. Move to album – if you want to put your photo to an album
g. Download – Allows you to download your image
h. Delete – erases the photo
i. Hashtags- updates the hash tags
j. Slideshow – view your photos continuously
k. Order prints
l. Date Uploaded – sort your photos
6. Let us assume you will share a photo individually. Select the photo then click share
7. a pop up will appear and you will see the following options:
8. You may choose to share your photo to your friends on Facebook. If you are done sharing, you may
now log off and close the browser.

2. Research on Photobucket and two more free image hosting sites and check out the limitations of the
free account. What is the best hosting site for you and why ?

Good day! Today you will be having a group chat either a video call on messenger or zoom or you can
just have a group message. Now divide yourselves into two groups, one group represent “team social media”
while the others represent “team bloggers”. The groups will have ten minute closed group discussion about the
advantages of each platform. After ten minutes, the groups will choose five representatives (since not
everybody can be included on the video call) who will debate on which platform is superior and why.
After the debate, write your thoughts in the space provided by answering the question:
Discussion
We will focus on platform that will allow us to share our own content to the rest of the world. We will also
create a few of them to experience what it is like to use all of them.
1. Social Media Platforms. Websites like Facebook allow you to create not only personal accounts but
also pages and groups where you can share content. The only downside of this is that you are
restricted to Facebook’s “one-size-fits-all” design which mater the agenda of your page, it will look the
same as other pages. This design feature is also present in other social media platforms like google+.
On the plus side, Facebook has billions of users. LinkedIn is another example of a social networking
site where its focus is on business and professional networking.
2. Blogging platforms. Websites like WordPress, Tumblr, and Blogger focus on content and design. It
typically looks like a newsletter where you are given options to change the design to your liking.
Though you can manipulate the design, social media platform’s popularity is still unrivaled. The
amount of customize in blogs is also unrivaled depending on the content management system
implemented by the provider.
3. Step 1: first create your Wordpress.com account. Fill in the details make sure the E-mail you use
is still active. Or create an account using Google (using your own Gmail) and Apple (using your
Mac ID) located at the bottom.
4. Now think of a name for your site address. Think about it clearly as it will be part of your URL. If
you are done, a list will appear showing you the available domains that you can use. Since we are
just practicing your blogging skills and are not ready to spend real money, choose the free option.
Once your site has been created, you will see your dashboard containing two tabs. “My
site” and “Reader”. My site includes controls regarding your content that you post, whereas
“Reader” allows you to see articles from other blogs including the ones you follow. For now,
make sure that you are on the “My site” tab, simply by clicking the correct tab. You should
But you’re not done yet, you need to launch your site first. So follow these steps:
2. Name your site. Give your site a title to let people know what your site is all about. A good title
3. Create a site menu. Building an effective navigation menu makes it easier for someone to find
what their looking for and improve search engine rankings.
4. We’ve created the basics, now it’s time for you to update the images and text. Make a great first
impression. Everything you do can be change anytime.
5. Now it is time to launch our site. Now you might be asked again to get a plan but let’s continue
with your free site.

As a new blog owner, you might want to change a thing or two about how your blog looks. There are list of
things you need to do. On the upper right hand corner of the page click “customize” under the “Design” or in
the right hand corner there’s “Manage your site” under are the quick links if you want to edit your website.
Now that you are done with the design of your blog, it is now time for the important stuff: the blog posts!
Creating a blog post is pretty straightforward in WordPress.

WordPress offers more options for you to discover. Simply go to the “My Sites” tab and explore the
options to the left. Here is a brief explanation for each them:
There are plenty of things you can do with a WordPress blog. Even if you do not have a pc available, you
can download WordPress on your smartphone or tablets! Make sure you try it out so you can easily post or
create a draft even when you are not at home or in school.
Cloud Computing
We already mentioned the term “cloud computing” in the previous discussions. From the past lessons,
including this one, you have already used the “cloud” in producing a number of output for this class. Give
yourself a minute to think about this output that used “cloud computing.”
When we created infographics, we used Piktochart, which has an infographic editor that uses cloud
computing. The same goes in making your own blog and creating your first post: these are referred to as cloud
computing because we did not need to install any software in our computer. The software in is the “cloud” or in
the internet. The following are some advantages and disadvantages of cloud computing.
Advantage Disadvantage
1. No need to install 1. Can be hampered down by slow Internet
2. Saves hard disk space speed; no connection; no cloud computing
3. Easy access to your software/files; can be 2. May still require compatible software like a
ran anywhere as long as there is Internet browser
connection 3. You do not own the software; you are simply
4. Saves you money from buying software renting it
licenses and additional hard disk space 4. Security risk of doing things over the Internet
5. No need to update because it updates as opposed to your personal computer alone
automatically 5. More prone to hacking
6. Minimum system requirements 6. Limited control over the infrastructure itself
7. Back up and data recovery are relatively
easier than on a physical device.
Using cloud computing is generally up to you. Large companies opt to use the “cloud” because they
do not need to pay licenses for each computer they have in their company; instead they can use software on
demand.

Overview
How hard is it to create a web page? You may already have your Facebook or Twitter account, and
you just recently made your own blog. What about a site that gives you full control over its design?
Interview three of your classmates and ask them to name a website they normally visit but are not
familiar to you. Ask them what makes the site great – graphics, layout, or content. You can do that through
chat or group message. Write their answer on the pace provided.
However, that is not the case in web page creation. First, the Internet is free. Second, it is of free
courtesy of many website providers that provides basic functionalities for our website to function. Back in the
day, you actually have to learn HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) and CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) to be
able to create a decent website. Today, we will use a WYSIWYG editor
WYSIWYG
WYSIWYG is the acronym of What You See Is What You Get. Thus means that whatever you type,
insert, draw, place, rearrange, and everything you do on a page are what the audience will see. Like using the
Microsoft Word, WYSIWYG shows and prints whatever you type on the screen.
As mentioned earlier, people use HTML codes to create pages and CSS codes to design them. If has
taken up these coding skills before, it will help you in creating pages using WYSIWYG. If you have not,
WYSIWYG is design for anyone who has not or does not have prior coding skills.
Tip: Any file inside the Sample Web page files folder is generated by MS Word . These are the
files that make HTML files display visual elements correctly.
You have just created a web page using Microsoft Word—a technique you can also use
using Microsoft Excel. These office applications can be used as a WYSIWYG platform. The next step
is uploading these files to a web server. However, we will skip that step because we are going to use a
much easier approach in creating websites. We are going to use an onlien application that is actually
designed to create websites.
Jimdo is a WYSIWYG web hosting service. It offers free, professional, and business web hosting
services. Jimdo also has an iOS and Android app which you can use to manage your website whenever you
do not have access to a PC.
For this exercise you will create your own personal website that focus on your passion or hobby.
1. Create an account on Jimdo by going to www.jimdo.com and clicking “Start Now”. Optionally, you may
also download the official Jimdo App on your iOS or Android device.
2. Input your email address, create your password. You may also review the terms of use and privacy
policy. Afterwards, click “Sign Up”
4. Choose Make your own website with Jimdo creator. Then skip the question about what website you
would like to create.
6. Select a website address you want. Though there are options for profesional domain or a domain you
already own, ignore them and choose to use a free jimdo.com subdomain. This measn that your
website will be something like hellopenz.jimdo.com.
7. Select FREE when ask which Jimdo account is right for you.
8. Wiat for the page to load (it may take a while). This will load the website editor wherein you can get a
chance to modify the website oto your liking. This is called the WYSIWYG.
To use the editor, simply click on the element you want to change, whether it is the navigator on top,
the texts, or images. Almost everything can be changed.
By default, the home page is shown on your editor. To naviaget to another page, simply click the page
title on your navigator. The site navigator contains a set of links going through the different pages of your
website. The navigator currently available to you to you depends on which template you used. A sample of
navigator is shown below:
Inserting Page
1. Hover your mouse pointer over the site navigator. The Edit navigator button will appear:
2. Click on the Edit Navigator butoon. Click on Add a New Page.
3. Rearrange pages using the tools on the page title.
4. Click Save when done.
Editing Elements
Hovering over a text, image, or any element you see on the website will highlight the element.
Sizing tools- use to make image larger or smaller or restore to actual size page.
Align Tools – used for left, right, and center alignment page
Rotate Tools – used to rotate image clockwise or counter clockwise page
View Tools - used to enable enlarge image, link photo, and remove link (Tip: Enable Enlarge
Image will show a small image on the page and will only be enalrge when a user clicks it. Link
photos allow
Other Tools – caption and alternative text; allo sharing to Pinterest (Tip: Alternative Text refers to
the text that will be shown if the image does not load.)
III. Paragraph
if it is a paragraph, you will be treated to even more options similar to using a word processor:
Adding Elements
1. To add elements on screen, hover the mouse pointer over the top or bottom of an existing
element until the Add Element button appears:
2. Select the visual element you want to add:
a. Heading – to insert the heading type of text
b. Text – to insert a paragraph type of text
c. Photo – to insert a single photo
d. Text with Photo – to insert a photo surrounded with text
e. Photo Gallery – to insert multiple photos on one area
f. Horizontal Line – to insert a horizontal line that acts as a divider
g. Spacing – to add a space with a specfies size
h. Columns – to insert columns that divide an area vertically
i. Video – to insert a video from a video hosting site like YouTube
j. Form – creates a Send Email form for feedback
k. Store Item – adds buttons for the site visitor to share your website
l. Share Buttons – adds buttons for the site visitor to share your website
m. Additional Elements – includes other options like Google Maps, file download, widgets,
etc.
3. Edit the element to your liking then click Save.

Overview
Good day, student! So far, you have created blogs and website that can be categorized as personal. But like
many websites and blogs you visit every day, you can see that some of them are produced by multiple people.
Think of the blog you have previously created. Ask yourself the following questions:
1. Who is the target audience of my blog?
2. Are my blog posts of good quality?
3. Is my blog updated regularly?
4. Who usually comments on my blog?
Discussion
Facebook would not that be interesting if it were not for all your friends. In fact, the more friends you
have, the more content you get. This also rings true for other websites and blogs. Now, it is time for us to
create a collaborative ICT content.
Web Portals
A web portal is a website that contains information from different sources and places them in one
location in a uniform way. An example of a web portal is Yahoo! (www.yahoo.com). Yahoo.com offers a web
portal where news email, weather, etc. are found in one page. The information found in the image came from
different websites/sources.
Working together does not necessarily mean you have to be physically together. These tools can help your
group “go the distance” and work as if you already have your own office.
1. Create a Trello account by going to their home page (https://trello.com/), and click “Sign Up”. Fill out
the form and click Create a New Account.
2. Once you have signed up and logged in, click on Create a New team. If you have multiple boards
already, it will be found at the bottom of the page.
For steps 3-6, only one person should do this, preferably the group leader.
3. Click on the Invite button. Input a member’s Trello name or email address or if the team member has
not signed up for Trello yet, you can invite them just simply adding their email. They will get invitation
which will require them to sign up. Click Send when done. Do this again until you have sent an
5. Create a new board for the task named Jimdo Site. Name it and use the default options then click
Create.
6. You will be taken to the newly created board. Click on Add a List to add tasks to be done by your
group. For now, add one task named Create a Jimdo Account.
7. Ass a card under this with the label containing a description. It should look something like what is
shown on in item 11:
8. Click the down arrow on the lower right to view more options.
10. Any input you place in this card will be viewed by anyone. You can also use options on the right to add
members, edit labels, put a checklist, add a due data and attachment (like photos and office
documents). Going back to the board will show that the card is updated.
11. All members should have a list of tasks under their position. The leader should arrange these tasks
according to priority (due dates). Make sure all tasks are covered.

Good day, student! Was advertising campaign successful? To get regular traffic for your website is already a
pretty tough task to accomplish. This is especially true if your website is not as desirable as you think.
It is time to enlist the help of the entire class. Gather your group and visit the websites of other groups
in your class. On a sheet of paper, answer the survey form below. You need to review at least two groups as
assigned by your teacher.
III. Write the features that should be present and the feature that should be removed from the
website.

Submit your work to your teacher. Remember that any negative comment about your website is a
room for improvement ad should not be taken personally.
So far, we have managed to add interactively to your personal blog, website, and even your company
or group website. At this point, you can already consider that these websites are, indeed, Web 2.0. At some
extent, the advertisements generated by your web host (WordPress or Jimdo) are only glimpse of Web 3.0.
The as displayed on someone’s screen are sometimes affected by the things they have already visited.
There was a time that the Internet that was not fast as today’s Internet – only text, images, and bits of
sound are placed on most websites. Today, however, videos and music are now placed freely on most
websites. If you visit CNN.com’s website today using the Internet of the year 2000, your World Wide Web
(WWW) would turn him into a different kind of WWW: World-Wide-Wait. CNN now hosts videos placed on their
home page, which was unthinkable in the past because of slow Internet speed. Videos way back then were
never on the home page and can be viewed “on-demand” or only when a user clicks on it. The same goes for
high quality images and background music.
Most websites you see today have embedded YouTube videos on them. To remedy the problem that
not everyone has fast Internet connection, these YouTube videos can be set to be played “on-demand” rather
than having them played automatically.
Multimedia Content
Here are multimedia contents that you can find on some websites:
1. Videos. Through video hosting sites, you can take a video and show it worldwide (e.g., YouTube)
2. Sound, Music, or Audio. If videos are too much for you, you can always record sound. You can
produce “sound bites” and share them globally (e.g., SoundCLoud)
3. Online games. Game developers now create what is called “browser-based games.” You do not need
to install these games to your computer as they run in most updated web browser (e.g.,
AdventureQuest, Farmville, Candy Crush).
4. Online tests. These are online survey forms and tests that automatically display the results when
finished (e.g., Online IQ and personality Tests).
5. Courseware. These are online courses that simulate the classroom through online connection (e.g., E-
learning Courses using a Learning Management System).
6. Podcasts. These are episodic series of audio or text files streamed online (e.g., Stuff You Should
Know, TED Talks, The Starters, ear Biscuits).
7. Vodcasts. These are episodic series of videos streamed online (e.g., YouTube series/shows like
Video Game High School, Good Mythical Morning).
Create a blog post about any significant OPM (Original Pilipino Music) that you like. Any music will do
just as long as it does not have any swears or inappropriate messages.
1. Search any OPM song of your choice on YouTube.com. You can use an official music video or
someone else’s upload.
3. Click on Embed.
4. Pop-up will appear. Copy the code found on the right hand side of the videos.
5. Create a new post on your WordPress then on the editor, click on the add block button (+) and
find Embed and click the YouTube icon.
Note: write an article about this song describing it and why you featured it on your blog.
6. Paste you code here. Once pasted, do not worry if this code changes to a shorter code.
7. Go back to the Visual tab and add text content on either the top of your video or the bottom.
8. Preview then publish the content.

For a moment, imagine the Internet has disappeared and will never be back. What do you think will happen?
List down your thoughts and share them with your classmates.
Information and Communication Technology is a part of a Digital Age, where Internet communication
is one of the most common ways to keep in touch with other people. But even before the digital age, there are
plenty of ways humans were able to communicate.
During the tribal age, or ancestors started communicating through body and verbal communication.
Eventually they learned to be literate and were able to store knowledge through wall paintings and stone
carvings.
By the eleventh century, our Chinese invented the movable type that was able to replicate documents.
By 1440, a German named Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press in Europe that made it possible to
reproduce document using ink. This made books easy to reproduce and eventually made newspapers
available by 1605.
Finally, electronic-based communications started with the invention of the telegraph. This invention
was only the start as newer technologies like the telephone, radio, and television (TV) came to reality.
Today, we consider ourselves leaving in a digital age. Almost every device is now updating. Back
then, TV were just TVs, and cell phone were just for calling and sending SMS. At present, most devices are
now “smart” – smartphones, smart TVs, and smart refrigerators are only examples of devices that do more
than their regular function. Computers make it possible for these devices to be programmed with codes and
can do more than what we are used to.
Second Phase: Personal Computer – During the 1970s, the development of personal computers
started. This is made possible by chip technologies and magnetic discs which made bulky computers
fit a desktop. This technology made word processing, accounting, and graphics easily available to the
public.
a. Fourth Phase: Networking – Soon thereafter, small connection was made so that computers were able
to communicate with each other. This all started in small distances then eventually broke the distance
barriers which gave birth to the Internet. These days, we still see newer developments which make our
Internet connection faster, thus improving this technology.
b. Fifth Phase: Wireless technology – Wired connections were already a huge advancement for the
Internet, but to travel different places while still being able to browse websites, update your social
media status and search Google were all made possible with wireless technology.
Throughout recent history, the Philippines has been one of a few nations that demonstrates unity for a call
to action or social change. The following campaigns for social change would have not been successful if it
were not for ICT.
1. EDSA People Power Revolution. The people Power Revolution lasted from 1983 to 1986. During a
radio broadcast of Radyo Veritas, Cardinal Sin encouraged the Filipino to help end the regime of the
President Ferdinand Marcos. A major protest took place along EDSA from February 22 to 25, 1986
involving two million Filipinos from different sectors. These includes civilians, political parties, the
military, and religious group. The radio broadcast helped change the course of history. Without it,
Filipino would not have been moved into action.
2. Second People Power Revolution. This is also known as the 2001 EDSA Revolution, happened during
January 17 to 21, 2001. It was fueled after 10 senators-judges and 11 prosecutors of then President
Joseph Estrada walked out of the impeachment trial. As a result, the crowd in EDSA grew over the
course of few days through text brigades. Like the first People Power Revolution, EDSA II would not
have been successful without the text brigades.
4. Yolanda Person Finder. Recent storm in Philippine History gave birth to the Person Finder database
powered by Google. During typhoon Yolanda, the People Finder was a vital tool for people across the
globe to track the situation of their relatives. This provided to be successful and is now adapted by
more organizations to help people track relatives during calamities.
Change.org
Change.org is dubbed as the “world’s platform for change” where anyone from the online community
can create a petition and ask others to sign in. during the past times, petitions are only done through signing a
paper, usually done by a group asking for signatures via travel. Chang.org gives access to more people by
allowing the online community to affix their digital signature on a petition.
Change.org’s mission is to help people from around the world to create change they want to see. For
years, Change.org hosted several petitions that help solve the following problems: economic problems,
criminal injustice, abuse of human rights, lack of education, environmental concerns, animal abuse, human

Overview
So far you have several online platforms and applications to your advantage in promoting and selling products,
and even in starting a small campaign in your community. It is now time to take all of these knowledge to the
next level by identifying which platforms can help your group in your complain for social media.
Form your group from last Lesson’s Skill Exploration. Identify all the platforms and applications that you can
use for your campaign. List them down and explain their roles in your campaign.
Discussion
For the next few weeks, your group will be focusing on creating your social media campaign. For this
lesson, your group will go through the planning stage.
Before starting your project, your group should be able to do necessary paperwork.
This allows experts to see if a project is doable over the time frame that was given and if it is
significant enough to be made into reality.
A concept paper is a document used to convince a panel of potential funders to help a product,
program, or service becomes a reality. Your teacher will play the role of the sponsor and you have to convince
him or her that your project is worth your time and effort.
1. Introduction – includes your group’s mission and vision and a brief introduction of your
project;
2. Purpose – includes the reasons why this project is worth your group and your sponsor’s
time, effort, and money.
3. Description – includes all the necessary information about the project. In ICT, it involves
the size you are going to produce and the purpose of each and how the work in unison.
4. Support – contains the budget needed for the project. Some concept papers do not specify
any amount requested from the sponsor.
5. Contact Information – includes information on how the group can be contacted.
For years, many students depend on the school’s drinking fountain. Aside from saving
them money, the schools drinking fountain contains filters that make the water safe enough to
drink. But according to our research, the last time the water was tested was about three years
ago and by using the drinking fountains around schools, it is highly questionable that the
water is still safe for drinking. Our group theorized that the natural water-and-tear of the
drinking fountain has led to the water’s unpleasant taste. Our group, The Mosaic Alliance,
aims to create several online sources that will help promote the awareness of people involved
about this problem and create an online petition with the goal of improving out drinking
fountains here in school.
Our group aims to create a petition in Change.org, a Facebook group, and a blog to
help achieve our goals. We will be creating infographics and other related information
connected to the dangers of drinking unsafe water especially at a young age. The scope of our
project is to be able to reach the school’s administration, parents, teachers, and students to
sign our petition.
We will be requiring a week to develop this project and we will start our promotion
right after we have uploaded the website. We will also be using our own resources so the
funding for this project will be close to none. Our expenses may only include the printing of
campaign materials and the Internet and computer shop rentals in case we need more time
outside school hours. We will also be using free services already offered by Facebook,
Blogger, and Change.org.
Should you have any questions about our project feel free to contact us at
mosaicalliance@email.com.
2. Development – involves the actual creation of the website(s); the production of images, infographics,
etc.
3. Release and Promotion – involves the actual release of the website for public viewing and promoting
it. Promotion typically starts before the actual release.
4. Maintenance – involves responding to feedback of your site visitors and continuing to improve the
website.

Checkpoint
Your group’s goal over the course of two weeks is to create a legitimate change.org campaign and accompany
it with a website that will promote the campaign and supple more information about the campaign. Create a
concept paper about this social campaign. Send it to my E-mail account for approval.
Once approved by your teacher, the following will be required for this project:
1. A website or blog that will promote and explain what the campaign is all about;
2. Pictures that will accompany the website or blog;
3. At least one infographic posted on the website (requires research either through the simple survey or
through the use of secondary data);
4. A Facebook fan page about the event that will help your audience meet and collaborate.
Optional:
1. A Photobucket account to host your images;
2. Another social media account like Twitter to reach a broader audience.
Using the Simplified ICT Project Process Overview, do the steps in planning your social
campaign.
Assessment
1. As a group, take photographic and videos for your campaign. Avoid using portrait videos;
use landscape ones instead. Prepare the videos for upload on YouTube. On the other
hand, upload your pictures to a Photobucket account or any image hosting site.
Using your prior knowledge and skills, your group will have to create, design, and
upload content or your website. All content should be original. It is advisable not to post
all the contents at once, plan the time between each post.
Your group should also prepare campaign materials to post around your school. You may
also start promoting via page shares and word of mouth.
Watch the video and comment about it through your blog. Make sure you embed
the video in you blog post. Write why you chose that campaign and how change can be
done if we all worked together.

websites?
Discussion
Have you ever wondered why websites publish new content at a certain time or date? In the business
world, companies would use site statistics to check how popular their website is and at which day time they get
the most traffic. This way their new content could reach more people.

In the previews activity, did you find drawings that look really good? Or were they not that good?
When you create content and you find it highly successful without anyone giving you feedback is a game of
chance. In the corporate world, time and money are wasted when you leave things by chance. The same goes
with webpage creation – feedback is very important.
The internet will give you plenty of options in gathering your audience’s feedback. The only difference
that you and your group my notice is how these services are presented. Some of them, because they are free
to use, may have too many ads or some features are lacking. In any case, it is your group’s choice which of
these services is not cumbersome to reach your objective.
Google offers one of the easiest ways to gather user feedback. Google Forms allow your audience to answer
a set of questions you have set. These can be used for surveys, feedback, online registration, and customer

Overview
Good day, student! In various aspects, ICT and technology as a whole brought us comfort and convenience in
life. We, as a Filipinos, have been known to be avid users of technology. Some even made a name as an
Internet sensation. However, aside from those successes are the downfalls of users.
Discussion
Walking on a sidewalk does not pose danger as opposed to walking in the middle of the street.
Remove the sidewalk and you are left to dodge approaching vehicles. That is probably how much of us deal
with the Internet. In the Internet, there are no sidewalk; just a huge superhighway where information freely
flows through. If in the real world we have the police or the military to monitor us, the Internet is unmonitored,
making it one of the most abused technology we use.
Cybercrimes
Cybercrimes are illegal acts done through the use of the Internet. In 2012, Stephen Nale (Complex.com)
posted a list of ten most common Internet cybercrimes as follows:
1. Phishing/Spoofing – thee act of sending multiple emails to multiple users in hopes of having a number
of them clicking on the links or malwares attached to the email. Most email services today have spam
or bulk folders that automatically put these suspicious emails to that folder. However, it is not 100%
accurate that some emails are not filtered and some other emails that are legitimate end up on the
spam folder.
2. Blackmail/Extortion – the act of using the Internet to threaten or damage someone’s reputation to
export money or anything else of value. This can be avoided if you are aware of what you should post
on the Internet. The victims of this act tend to have posted something “inappropriate” over the Internet
even if they put it at a secured location.
3. Accessing Stored Communications/Hacking – the act of obtaining unauthorized access to data from a
computer network. This is typically done to commercial and government sites to threaten its owner. In
late 2014, a group of hackers hacked Sony’s website because of the impending release of the
controversial film “The Interview”.
4. Sports Betting – the act of wagering on any sports event on the Internet. In some countries, gambling
(including sports betting) is illegal even if you are doing it on the Internet.

5. Non-Delivery of Merchandise – the act of devising a scheme wherein a culprit posts an item or
services for sale on the Internet and once the transaction has been done, does not really give the item
or service.
6. Electronic Harassment – the act of anonymously using the Internet to harass, abuse, threaten, or
annoy other people. This is also an act of cyberbullying, however, because the culprit is anonymous, it
is hard to detect who is bullying you.
7. Child Pornography – the act of using the Internet to show child pornography. This act is highly
punishable by law.
8. Prostitution – the act of using the Internet to engage in prostitution;
9. Drug Trafficking – the act of selling illegal substances by using the Internet;
10. Criminal Copyright Infringement – the act of piracy mainly for financial gain. In late 2014, the number
one pirate website, ThePirateBay, was raided for the second time due to years of pirating movies,
music, games, book, and other software. The kinds of websites earn money through advertising.
The Internet is the present and the future of your generation and you will define what impact it can do to shape
our society, whether it is negative or positive. The future is in your hands.
Combating Cybercrimes
There are several ways the authorities can help solve or prevent cybercrimes. Here are some of them:
1. Network Security. Before a hacker can get through the authorized files he or she is targeting, the
hacker has get through several security measures like firewalls, secure connections, passwords, anti-
malwares, and data encryptions. Encryption is the process of converting raw data into code. However,
these methods are not 100% secure and there will always be a way for a hacker to hack.
2. Investigation. URL tracing and logging are used by websites to track your unique IP addresses. This
can be used by investigators to trace hackers. In piracy, trackers are used to identify IP addresses
currently sharing a pirate file.
3. Penalties. More and more laws are being created and implemented today. Penalties include both fine
and imprisonment.
Reference
Checkpoint
As responsible users’ technology, we should be aware of the limitations of using the Internet.
1. Form a group of three members.
2. Write the Internet crimes that are rampant today.
