Reflection on articles from real life situations of hacking

There was a young girl from Sweden who visited a website which showed movies online. This website had tons of commercials and ads telling the girl to click here and there to win a price. The girl then accidentally pressed the links and the ads. Nothing seemed to happen so she went out of the ads and started watching the movie that she had been wanting to watch. It was only until after the movie that she realized that someone had hacked in t her computer and taken several pictures of her through her camera.  She than saw that these pictures of her were posted online for everyone to see.
The girl then contacted the police after speaking to her parents about what happened. The police luckily managed to delete the pictures from the net and the girl then learned her lesson. Not to click on ads or  advertisements.

peer evaluating on students tech fair projects

Maya and Mais 

Maya and Mais wanted to created their own movie trailer out of movie scenes that already are existing and so they did. Their project looked very interesting and creative. Also knowledgeable. It looks like it took them a very long time to create this project. to edit and structure their project takes a lot of time. They worked equally on this project and created a good trailer. The trailer genre was a Action movie mixed thriller. The plot was about a man who was some sort of action character who then had a girl. They seemed to be connected in a way that the man had to go off and save her. Maybe it was his daughter or niece or cousin. In the plot of the movie the girl then gets kidnapped and so then the man is trying to save her. She has been kidnapped for 6 years and so the journey began. They used several editing programs such as, windows movie maker and other websites. To improve on their project they could have created a 30 minute long movie by 


Yanis, David and Parth 

They produced a RTA game that was based on Pokemon. They also made a trailer of the game showing how the game works and telling you what to do. the music the the game is very happy and catchy. The game is very fun and interesting but is a bit to childish for me. The software's they used to create this was Item editor, advanced math, Yape and A-edit 


Mehul and Kunuz 

They created a spy car that can drive in dirt, grass and high places.The car was bought but then they added up a camera holder which can hold the phone while driving. They made a video tutorial on the car about how it works and also they created an app which explains all the information about the spy car. The app was created by the software called Appy-pie and the video was created with i movie.the project is very creative and fun. Sneaky and cool. I liked it.

Makis, Adnan and Sid

Their tech fair project was creating a game called (the big escape) using the software gamegru. The game is about a area filled with zombies and so there is one man who has to escape the are with out dying. they had a very structured plan. They also had good ideas and they managed to develop their ideas very well. the game is fun and very well made.


Tye and Jisang Kim 

They created a game that is called zombie attack 2016. The game is about zombies invading a ware house up in the mountains.This took the guys 2 weeks to do and they both worked equally on this project. They created their game on a software called roblox when they were half way threw their project the software asked them to pay 9850 AED so they had so changes software and they ended up using roblox.

Aamnah and Sneha 

So these two have decided to create a stop motion video. The skills that they used was editing ,timing , organization and creativity. 
they used a few software's, some of them were dragon frame, time- lapse and final cut pro.
Their project was very creative, you can see that they have dedicated a lot of time to this project.
They made two tries when they expressed anger, sadness and happiness by stop motion pictures.
They drew their pictures on a white board in which they could erase easily, edit and  change the characters movements and moods. This project was very hard for them to create and draw. For them it was much easier to take photographs of things and add them together rather than drawing and erasing. The video has to flow and go in a smooth direction so therefor it was very important for the pictures to be exact and precise. If you are not careful with  your drawing skills the video might look stiff and move like a robot. Therefor it is very hard to change the picture and make it move in a flow. 

Caroline 

Caroline worked alone on this project. she wanted to create a light by usig two wires of aligator clips, one pencil with both ends sharpened  and one Christmas light which she cut off and then separated the wires. 
She first wanted to make the light go off by drawing with graphite pencil n a piece of paper. Then she wanted to connect the drawing to the aligator clips and so it was supposed to light up. But since that did not work because of thin graphite she had to clip the aligator clips directly onto each end of the  pencil and so it worked since it gave more power than the graphite than the one on a paper. To develop her idea further, she could have cut some pens to collect more of the graphite so that in this case she could have drawn a thick and beautiful painting and maybe even light up more that one lights. This would both improve on her learning skills and development skills.
