11 ||Media Literacy


Media literacy is the ability to access, analyze, evaluate, and create media. Media literate youth and adults are better able to understand the complex messages we receive from television, radio, Internet, newspapers, magazines, books, billboards, video games, music, and all other forms of media. Media literacy skills are included in the educational standards of every state—in language arts, social studies, health, science, and other subjects.

The seminar of Media literacy is enlightening us to know how it works. This seminar shows us what is the purpose of social medias and how it was properly used by the owner.

So media literacy enhances our understanding on how media messages shape our culture and society. By media literacy we also recognize bias and lies on networks. We also discover some parts of the story that was not been told.



So media literacy enhances on our mind in reality. We should not just easily listen on what is told by others we should know the whole thing first before reacting on that particular situation.The seminar about the  Media literacy helps us to open our minds.

10 ||Plagiarism





What is plagiarism? So according to Merriam Webster, it is an act of using another person's words or ideas without giving credit to the owner or to the person. Many people think of plagiarism as copying another's work or borrowing someone else's original ideas. But terms like "copying" and "borrowing" can disguise the seriousness of the offense. A lot of students now a days are plagiarizing their work especially on their homeworks and projects. For me plagiarizing things are bad. because you are not giving credit to the owner of the thing you plagiarized but some people just rephrase it because they are just getting some ideas on how to make it. But, some of people are just too lazy to do their own job. 



By plagiarizing you can be expelled in your institution, it can destroy work or the job your doing and it can destroy your career. So if I were you,dont destroy your future,do not plagiarize things,don't waste your time and do your own thing.

At the end of the day our stress, tiredness disappeared when we heared that we won 1st runner up in the competition. Actually our team have many hard headed people. Everyone was so stressed out the week before the competition. Some of us were lazy to sacrifices their time to attend the practices.We also have some little arguements between this and that.

8|| Parasyte





Parasyte is a science fiction horror manga series written and illustrated by Hitoshi Iwaaki, and published in Kondasha's Afternoon magazine from 1988 to 1995. The manga was published in North America by first Tokyopop, then Del Rey, and finally 
Kondasha Comics USA. The manga has been adapted into two Live-action films in Japan in 2014 and 2015. An anime television series adaptation by Madhouse, titled Parasyte was aired in Japan between October 2014 and March 2015.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia






One day,there was a 17-year-old named Izumi Shinichi that lives in Tokyo Japan with his mother. One day there was an aliens that were called "Parasytes" that trying to invade the planet Earth.Their objective is to take over the human's brain and body. The alien that partly invade Izumi Shinichi's body is a savior alien. The alien who invaded Izumi Shinichi's body wants to save the earth from the bad plans of other aliens.




So at first, the movie was disgusting because of the aliens and how they kill and eat the humans.For me the saddest part of the movie is when the evil aliens invade Izumi Shinichi's mom and was killed.What I saw in the movie is he doesnt want to his mom because it shows that he really love her. after her mom died, he became strong to fight the aliens.
So I were you watch it and follow the other episodes of the Parasyte.
