Semiosis https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semiosis from Ancient

Greek σημείωσις
(sēmeíōsis),
from σημειῶ
(sēmeiô) 'to
mark'), or sign
process, is any
form of activity,
conduct, or
process that
involves signs,
including the
production of
meaning.

Signs https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign_(semiotics) In semiotics, a

sign is anything
that
communicates a
meaning that is
not the sign itself
to the interpreter
of the sign. The
meaning can be
intentional, as
when a word is
uttered with a
specific
meaning, or
unintentional, as
when a symptom
is taken as a
sign of a
particular
medical
condition. Signs
 can
communicate
through any of
the senses,
visual, auditory,
tactile, olfactory,
or taste.

In semiotics, the
Meaning https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meaning_(semiotics) study of sign
processes
(semiosis), the
meaning of a
sign is its place
in a sign relation,
in other words,
the set of roles
that the sign
occupies within a
given sign
relation.

Visual https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_system The visual

system
comprises the
sensory organ
(the eye) and
parts of the
central nervous
system (the
retina containing
photoreceptor
cells, the optic
nerve, the optic
tract and the
visual cortex)
which gives
organisms the
sense of sight
(the ability to
detect and
process visible
light) as well as
enabling the
formation of
several non-
 image photo
response
functions.

Auditory https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hearing Hearing, or

auditory
perception, is the
ability to
perceive sounds
through an
organ, such as
an ear, by
detecting
vibrations as
periodic changes
in the pressure
of a surrounding
medium. The
academic field
concerned with
hearing is
auditory science.

Tactile https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somatosensory_system In physiology,

the
somatosensory
system is the
network of neural
structures in the
brain and body
that produce the
perception of
touch (haptic
perception), as
well as
temperature
(thermoception),
body position
(proprioception),
and pain. It is a
subset of the
sensory nervous
system, which
also represents
visual, auditory,
olfactory, and
 gustatory stimuli.

Olfactory https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sense_of_smell The sense of

smell, or
olfaction, is the
special sense
through which
smells (or odors)
are perceived.
The sense of
smell has many
functions,
including
detecting
desirable foods,
hazards, and
pheromones,
and plays a role
in taste.

Gustator https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taste The gustatory

y system or sense
of taste is the
sensory system
that is partially
responsible for
the perception of
taste (flavor).
Taste is the
perception
produced or
stimulated when
a substance in
the mouth reacts
chemically with
taste receptor
cells located on
taste buds in the
oral cavity,
mostly on the
tongue.
ACTIVITY #2

According to the article, cyber-bullying is prevalent in the Philippines with a significant

number of individuals admitting to experiencing or witnessing online harassment. In
response, the government enacted the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012 to protect
online users from various forms of abuse. The government is also working hand-in-hand
with businesses, academic institutions, and communities to raise awareness about
cyber-bullying and promote safety measures. Additionally, social media platforms and
internet service providers are encouraged to take up corporate responsibility in curbing
online abuse. To create a safe and healthy online environment, the article suggests that
education, mental health support, and better parental guidance are essential.
