  1. A Student’s Survival Guide toComputers & the Internet By: Parm Sekhon 2/7 - I.T - Oct 15, 2013

  2. Internet Safety • Don`t use weak passwords • Don`t go on illegal websites • Don`t download files from websites you don`t trust • Read the terms and conditions before agreeing • Don’t click ads or pop ups

  3. Internet Safety The internet is not a safe place for young children and for people that don’t know the risks. This is why we should be aware of the consequences. One thing everyone should know is that, “once on the internet, always on the internet.” So don’t put anything on the internet that could affect you in the future. Whether it is your job, or your life in general. Another important thing is to keep private. If people know where you live, you and your family can be at risk. Also on the internet, cyber bullying is occurring more and more often. Nowadays many young kids are signing up for social networking websites such as Facebook, Twitter, Tumblrand Instagram. Man children are being cyber bullied on these websites everyday. Even your children can be at risk of getting bullied through these websites. The internet can put your child at risk of getting bullied, harassed and discriminated. But if you learn how to be safe, you can use it to your advantage.

  4. Healthy Computing and Ergonomics Ergonomics:[ur-guh-nom-iks] The study of how efficient someone or something is in there work environment. The reason everyone should be concerned with ergonomics is because it shows how efficient everything is. If people aren’t concerned, this could affect everyone faster and at the workplace. Your job can also be a risk, since you can get replaced by another person that knows more. Also nowadays technology is getting more and more advanced and people can be replaced technology. Long term: The long term affects of working in a workplace that is not ergonomic would be the lack of getting work done on time. Which could lead to the possibility of the business shutting down. Short term: The short affects of working in a workplace that is not ergonomic would be workers not getting work done on due dates. Which would decrease the reliability of the workers and the company in general.

  5. Comparison – ExtraPadded – Bad Executive Recline ExtraPadded Office Chair: This chair is not a bad chair but it has less options than the Aeron Chair. There is no adjustable options just reclining. The Aeron chair has more options than this one which makes this a non-ergonomic chair. The backing on this chair is cheap leather with a soft feel. After along time the chairs backing wears down and you can feel the screws and nuts threw the backing.

  6. Comparison – Aeron Chair – Good Aeron Chair: The Aeron Chair is a very comfortable chair. The lean feature allows for you to lean with ease and without having to tighten or loosen anything. This makes the job easier for the employees and reduces the back pain many office workers complain about from bad chairs. Also the chair has a removable seat pad, which is fully adjustable to your likings. The mesh material used to cover the seat where your back rests is very comfortable. It evenly distributes the weight that is put on it throughout the whole chair. Overall, this is a very good chair. I rate this chair 10/10 since everything on the chair can be adjusted to your likings. So if anything is bugging you, adjust it with ease. It is also very comfortable, very light and portable.

  7. Intellectual Property Definition: A creation or product that isn’t aloud to be copied or taken without permission from the maker or creator of the product or creation.

  8. Is File Sharing Illegal? Canada’s Law: File sharing is illegal in Canada. My Opinion: In my opinion file sharing should be legal, but only if the sharer owns the file or document they are sharing. It should be illegal if you are sharing properties or documents that you don’t have permission to share to others.
