BEING A TEACHER....

BEING A TEACHER IS A DIFFICULT TASK NOWADAYS, SO I DECIDED TO FOLLOW THIS PIECE OF ADVICE BY BRUCE LEE:

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.

The Internet and Safety

Some good advice about INTERNET SAFETY and very useful to be ready for your Selectivity exam.

Amazing video sent to me by Elena Pérez (3º ESO A)



3º ESO students can insert their comments here. (Unit 4)


Teenagers would rather lose TV than internet or mobile – survey


What do you think the main problems teenagers have when they use internet? Write your experiences and also write about the positive aspects of using it.

By the way, what does 'GOOGLE' mean? Here's a brilliant research by Mª José (3º ESO A).

Online safety has become of paramount importance especially during this pandemic we are going through. Children are spending more time online, and most parents are not aware of the risks they are putting their children through by allowing them unlimited access to streams on the internet. Here's a guide I have been sent and it may be useful for you:

  1. I think that Internet is one of the best inventions of the world, but it is very dangerous if you don´t use it correctly. You shouldn´t give personal information because there are many evil people that uses it to steal or to hurt you. How dangerous internet is!. It's specially dangerous for children because there are many pornographic images and videos that are available to everyone.
    I think that parents should keep an eye on their children to avoid this kind of things.

  2. Internet is the great invention of the future and that is a technological and social revolution as it allows all people can be connected lsa between us. Internet can serve many purposes that improve life in general as the global connection that acts as the basis for the collection of information or the simple use of this information to grow culturally. Now internet is being used as an educational way for the education of students. It is thought that the future may be the only form of communication replacing the great inventions there at this time

  4. I think like Mireya that internet is one of the best inventions in the world, because you can find all the information about differents things, listen all the music, see film ( but nowadays not all the film because of Sinde law), buy things from your home and talk whit someone who is in the other side of the world. In conclusion I think that internet is fantastic, that also can be extremely dangerous if you won´t use it well.

  6. Internet is the best invention of the history, as it facilitates your life both at work and in entertainment ... Internet offers you facilities that any other tool offers you, but it can also cause serious diseases such as addiction or bring serious problems with your identity. Internet is a great help to us, but we must use it carefully, especially all children who begin to experiment with it and give their personal data to any web page.
    Is incredible that through Internet you can talk to a person who is at the other side of the world and I think in the not too distant future everything will be around him.

  7. Internet has changed our lives since it appeared. It makes our live more easy and it is a great way to have fun, learn and keep informed. Yet, we have to be very carefully because we have got used to writing everything about us on the Internet and we don't know what happens with our information in the web. In my opinion, we should think if it's really necessary to give out our data and if it isn't perhaps dangerous. Specially children should be more controlled by their parents and so avoid bad mistakes.

  8. I agree with Anna. I think Internet has changed our lives since appeared and... I don't know what we would do without it. Nowadays we are often using it to chat with our friends in social networks. to watch films and to download whatever archive we would like use. However we have to be careful with some webpages and read them detaily to know what these pages have asked you. We don't konw if it's dangerous and we usually put our personal data with the danger that some hacker could damage the computer.
    In my opinion we should be careful with it, especially children that could make bad things if they were spending much time in front of the screen. Parents must look after them.

  9. In my opinion nowadays the Internet is necessary because it offers us a lot of services like the possibility to be communicated with people who are in the other part of the planet or buy some things that are very difficult to find nearby. I think that the Internet is a very important invention, perhaps the best invention of the world but we also have to know how to use it, because if we don´t use it correctly it can be detrimental for us, for example if we use it a lot of hours. Nowadays children start to use the Internet when they are very little so we have to teach them how to use it and warn them about the danger of a bad use of this invention.

  10. I think internet is not as important if so much people have learned english without internet, it's truth than is better and easier with internet but it's not essential for our learning.

    When I haven't got internet I used to study with a handheld dictionary and the comments we do here we could do it written, I think internet put us the things in our hand, and we have lost the effort of looking for the things I don't like the easy things.

  11. If internet doesn't work a bit of time the world would pass a big colapse, Internet it's the best tool we can use, for learn and study anything like english or.. how to make a bomb with aluminium papper and a bottle.

    In internet there are a lot of thiefs, like in another place and we haven't to give personal information to anybody we don't know, but I don't think the porn is a problem, because someday the childs have to know this kind of things.

  12. In my opinion the internet is a great invention. This invention has revolutionized the technology and social world. The internet has expanded from over the world. In the internet you can find information, chat with other people, you can play online games... The internet has changed our future.

    The advantages of internet are: you can talk to people quickly and free, you can find information, you can play games with other people...

    The disadvantages of internet are: it is dangerous for young children, there is internet vandalism... Another problem is that some people are addictive to internet and can’t live without it.

    In conclusion there are advantages and disadvantages, but finally there are more advantages than disadvantages. I think internet is a good invention.

  14. Internet is as addictive as television. In my opinion people can decide how much time they want to using it.

    Internet is more interesting than real life but people can´t live completely disconnected from his real life.

    I write in my blog every day like a diary. I need to chatting with my friends. I am less interested in play games than chatting with my friends,

    Spent all ninght online is the same as when you go out with friends, you have been up all night.

  15. In my opinion, Internet is the best invention of the S. XX. Can you imaginate your life without internet? Nowadays there are a lot of pages where we can read the news or watch sports but somes pages are falses and we must be careful.

    Other thing is that nowadays the children are starting to use internet an we must teacher them a good use of it for this reason, shouln’t be a pages for adults or pages with a virus.

  21. The internet is a thing that was created not long ago and has been getting better and more up to this day as we know it. I use it a lot for whatsapp, instagram, twitter, facebook ... When I have not the phone I feel that bringing empty for so long with not having it makes me weird. When me and my friends were we planned everything for whatsapp, because if there is someone in times now without the internet is rare and harder to find. In conclusion the Internet is necessary for our lives.

  24. In my opinion Internet is very useful. It is a great invention, but it is very dangerous. So you have to use it correctly.
    There are a lot of good things about the Internet:
    1) It makes communication much easier
    2) you can find information more easily
    3) you can buy easily to shops in other countries
    4) you can share a lot of things with people the other countries
    5)you can download music or filmas from Internet
    There are a lot of good things about Internet, but there also bad things. The worst thing there is that it can produce addiction. There are a lot of people who spend hours in a network. I think that people need help, it is bad spending so much time in Internet.

  25. I think Internet is a great creation. If we haven't the Internet, we can't comunicate with other people, search information, create webpages, dowload music, watch videos on the YouTube.. The life wouldn't be the same without Internet, so we must thank the creators of Internet for their invention.

    However, Internet also has bad things. There are a lot of people in it, a lot of bad information, lots of things.
    Also you can become an addict. An Internet addict is a person who is completely disconnected from real life, because he's always on the Internet. In his free time, he plays games online and chats with friends. It can be a problem and maybe you need help. In some cases, Internet addicts fail a lot of exams and they're less interested in everything. It's like an illness. They need to talk to someone.

    Internet has got good and bad things, so be careful with what you do on the network.

  26. I think internet is a second differentiated world of real life, where you can make friends being connected to social networks and good fun time with games, videos and the blog. The bad consequences is that some friends tease you with pages of scares or downloading such games when they are actually virus. My experiences are good that I could earn some money online.

  27. In my opinion the internet is a great invention with which you can find many things. You can search in it: cars, bikes, information on specific topics, a lot more pictures, listen to music, watch videos and many things. But you have to be careful because there are also bad information, for example in Wikipedia there is much good information but there is also bad information. For me the problem that the teenagers have when they look on it is that they don't know how to find good and safe information. If you want to have a good security in internet you musn't give a personal information, where you live, your number of mobile phone, your name....etc. Internet is the best invention of the century. Google is an American multinational company specializing in services and related software, Internet, electronics and other technology products.

  28. There are a lot forms to search things, you can use encyclopaedias, you can go to libraries... But, nowadays all people use Internet to search things, listening to music, talk with their friends, do the shopping... However, people must to be conscious of the problems that it could have. Unless you have a lot of attention, you can have a lot of problems.

    On the one hand, Internet can be very useful when you are doing your homework for example, and you want to search something. Another factor to take into account is that teachers send a lot of information by email and if you don’t have Internet at home it can be very difficult, because students are supposed to see their email every day.

    On the other hand, Internet can make you more and more addictive. In my class there a lot of students that are using Internet with their mobile phones, while the teacher is talking. And they stop doing that, when their batteries don’t have more energy in their mobile phones. But, it isn’t only with teachers, they also are using it, when they are talking with their own friends.

    All in all, I think that things will change, and Internet will also be useful in the future. Not every people are so addictive, but it can be really maddening when they don’t pay you attention, when you are talking to them.

Internet has many good things, for example for search answer to your homeworks, search information of some famous, play onlines games, dowload music or films, but internet also has many bad things for example incorrect information about someone, hackers can extract personal information about you and some person can become addicted to Internet.

  31. The world has changed dramatically since the invention of the internet.

    We have rapid access to a huge amount of information. We know have the abilty to comunicate instantly with another person wherever we or they are. It's given us more freedom of choice about our purchases because the market is so much wider, as bussincess and comerce is now global. There are many things that we can do now directly without leaving your home; such as banking and filling in official forms.


    Nevertheless, everyone should be careful in the way that they use the internet as there are dangers. The internet can be used for illegal actiities such as child grooming and black mailing, but it can be used in ways that can cause great social damage to users. Bullying, hate mail,recruitment into cults and extremist organizations are all negative products of the internet . Teenagers are perhaps the most affected ones. They start talking to people who they think they can trust and give them private information, but what they don't understand, is that it can be used against them in someway. The video I've uploaded shows this very well.

    I'm aware of these dangers and I am cautious in the way I use the internet, so it has influenced my life positively and I would not like to be without it.

  33. I think that Internet is the best. You can do a lots of things with it, look for many things, download music or films, watch videos, chat with friends, login social pages, share files with the world, play games online... Today, all the people is connected to internet, we use it all the time in all moment. But some people, in special, the teenagers can have problems as that people can steal your identity, with chat rooms, ciberbullyng, sexting..
    It can be cool to blog, chat or play games online, but when you`ve been on the internet for more forty-eight hours a week, your idea of reality change, and be a problem. The people who do this are real addicts.
    Internet addiction has ruined people's education, relationship and careers.
    I use the internet for send messages to friends, watch something in Facebok and look for something. For example today, I've used it for send messages in Whatsapp, make comments in Albert's blog and watch a video on YouTube. I don't thing that I used to much the Internet.
    An advice for people with problems, is that you should to tell to someone, because most probably it helps you.

    Here a video of Amanda Todd, who had problems and finally she committed suicide https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=NaVoR51D1sU

  34. Careful what you write!

    I enjoyed watching this video as it was very funny to see the faces of the people when they thought the `magician` had got personal information about them which only they and their friends knew.But it is aso a serious problem which was shown when the `magician`resolved his `magic`and you could see that all that information was what they themselves had put on their personal webpages.
    So be careful what you write on the internet you don´t know who might read it!

  35. I think internet isn't very safe because there are a lot of hackers there. You must to be carreful to your publications on facebook or the shops that you do on internet.

    The people can hack your banck account and they can thieve all your money. You also be carreful for share your locations or photos for you, there are much pedophiles on internet.

    You be in danger if you enter in a private habbo or holo, the admins can view your ip and hack you. Once time a friend do a DDoS attack with the habbo ip.(An Internet Protocol address (IP address) is a numerical label assigned to each device (computer, printer) participating in a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication).

    You mustn't publicate personal information in any social red, like facebook, twitter or instagram. Your also mustn't put your adress in the description for your account.

  36. Nowadays the Internet is more and more important for us. Not only is Internet used to search for information or to chat with friends through sociles networks, but also many people work through this revolutionary network, for example, at the present time doctors can operate a patient that is miles away from him. In addition, Internet allows you to buy everything you want from you house. People buy everything, such as trips, flights, clothes, phones, computers ...

    According to the survey, most teens would rather lose TV to the Internet, but the question is, why? Television, one of the biggest phenomenon in history, is becoming obsolete, because now you can watch television anytime and anywhere, and also without advertising, which is the best. The same happens to newspapers because many people prefer to be informed via the internet.

    However, all that glitters is not gold, the Internet also has disadvantages: Internet can be a vice for many people, so they don't go out and spend all day at home. This also causes diseases such as loss of sight or obesity, as these people don't use to do exercise.

    Finally, I believe that the Internet has been a historical invention that has revolutionized telecommunications and has made our daily lives easier. I couldn't imagine my life now without the Internet, it would be a big step back in time. Therefore I agree with the survey, if I had to choose between losing television and losing Internet, I would choose to lose TV.

We can use internet for a lot of things, for example: searching for information, listening to music, watching fims, playing games, communicating with other people. I use internet every day, especially to communicate with my family and friends in my mobile phone.
    On the other hand, we must be very careful because there are a lot of bad people who use internet to steal or to harass people.
    So, I think we must take care and use internet for useful things, not only to have fun.

  39. In addition to everyone knowing what the internet is, let's talk a little about this tool so useful but at the same time so dangerous.

    Internet is a world-wide network of computerized devices and servers. Data travels to and fro among computer systems and servers. Around three billion people around the world are using internet. The countries with largest number of internet users includes China, United States, and India.

    On the one hand, there are plenty of adventages of internet, such as we can make donations online, Internet has opened doors for virtual online offices, we can earn online by doing freelancing jobs, selling online, completing surveys, affiliate marketing or sell old items that are of no use for us.

    On the other hand, there are also disadventages of it. Some of these may be, for example, we often trend to purchase those extra items that we rarely need. We feel helpless when the internet conection is down, or something very important, our life is moving at the pace of internet. We seldom spare few moments of peace of us.

    In conclusion, We have the intellect to make smart choices. We should not allow internet to distract or disturb our mind. We should use it in a way that brings harmony in life.

  42. Internet is a very good thing, in my opinion one of the best inventions, a network that helps us obtain information without having to pick up any books and is obviously more convenient.

    But although it has many good things, it also has bad things, on the internet you can find false information, people looking for your personal data, scams and people who believe that by being behind a screen they can do whatever they want without having any consequences. On the internet there are many toxic people who just want to criticize you, for things like that young children are not usually allowed access to the internet.

    Even if you are an adult and you know what you are doing, it is still dangerous since just by entering a web page there are people who can access all your data, get a virus or even make you a back door
