Ask yourself
1. Have you tried searching your profile in Google?
2. Did you get links to your profile page? How did these things happen?
3. How can search engines locate you?
4. Is there any danger of being found by search engines?
Let’s Reflect
How many hours do you spend on the internet per day?
Can you live without the Internet for a week?
How many aspects of your life depend on the Internet?
How many times have you complained about your Internet connection speed?
How Safe are You? Let us visit each item and see how risky it is to share them.
Type of Risks
Information
1. First name There is a risk in sharing your first name. Chances are, a
hacker may already know plenty of stuff about you even if you
only give out your first name.
2. Last name If sharing your first name is a small risk, having both your first
and last is riskier. You will be vulnerable to being searched for
using search engines, which include image search. Matching
a name with a face is modus to several cybercrimes like
identity theft.
3. Middle name Sharing your middle name alone is probably not the riskiest of
this shared information, but sharing your full name would be.
4. Current and Most people who steal identities study their subject. They can
previous use this information for verification purposes.
school(s)
5. Your cellphone Your cellphone number should never be posted over the
number Internet. The Internet is a public place. It is the same as posting
your number on a billboard.
6. The name of Risky, yet not as risky as posting their full names, especially
your mother and your mother’s maiden name.
father
7. The name of Disclosing this is a huge risk. Strangers may pretend or use
your siblings their identity to dupe you.
8. Your address Hopefully, you answered “no” to this one. Giving the Internet
your number is one thing; giving them your address is a whole
other level. It would be much easier for criminals to find you.
9. Your home This shared information is riskier than sharing your personal
phone number phone number. Scams usually use this information to deceive
you, one of which is when a stranger pretends to know your
parents or pretend to be you.
10. Your Birthday Letting people know your birthday is probably a must if you
want to get as many gifts as possible. But having it in your
profile makes you vulnerable to identity theft.
Internet Threats
An Internet threat is a threat that makes use of the World Wide Web
to disperse, conceal, and update themselves with the intention of
facilitating cybercrime.
Copyright Infringement
If you create something – a idea, an invention, a form of
literary work, or a research, you have the right as to how it should be
used by others. This is called intellectual properly. In other words,
the copyright law includes your rights over your work, and
anyone who uses it without your consent is punishable by law.
To better understand copyright, public domain, and fair use you may watch this
video through this link https://bit.ly/3oeLwy8.
Tips to avoid copyright infringement:
1. Understand – Copyright protects literary works, photographs, paintings,
drawings, films, music (and lyrics), choreography, and sculptures, but it
generally does NOT protect underlying ideas and facts.
Online Research
What is the difference between “Madonna” and “the Madonna”? Try to search
it on the net and see the difference.
Have you searched the Internet for certain information where the search engine
returned a different result? The information that we need is more likely already in the
Internet. It is just a matter of how to look for it and how to use information from the most
credible source. Here are some tips in conducting online research:
1. Have a question in mind.
Focus on a question you want answered. If it is a series of questions, start with
one. Never search everything on one go. Here is an Essential Google Search Tricks for
Research - https://bit.ly/3HjWbPI.
2. Narrow it down.
Search engines like Google, Bing, or Yahoo use several filters to determine the
most appropriate result for you. These search engines use your previous search
history and your geographical location, and send you the result which is the most related
to you. But if all these filters fail, you should remember to narrow it down what you are
searching for. For example, if you were to look for Tom Sawyer, the animation series, you
would better use the keywords “Tom Sawyer animation” rather than just “Tom Sawyer”.
Another example is if you were to look for science research experiments, it would be
better to include what branch of science it is or what type of study it is.
3. Advanced Search.
The best way to filter information you get from search engines is by using the
advanced search. This will allow you to filter out information you do not need. In Google,
simply search a word like you would normally do, and then click the advance search
option on the options button located at the upper right corner of the page.

IV. Practice
Instruction: The class will be divided by five
members in each group (approximately 7 groups).
They will access this link https://bit.ly/3s50jg5 to
do the activity. Through the link using Jamboard
the groups must sort the information if it is safe or
unsafe. The groups will be given five minutes to do
the task. After the groups were finished, they will
present their output in the class. Discussion of the
correct answers will be presented after the
presentations.

Understanding Social Issues (Online Research)
Instruction: Take a three (3) screenshot or picture of any social issue on Facebook,
Instagram or Twitter including the author/reference. Paste the pictures in the table
below. Create a short description of the issue (E.g., Excessive use of Plastic Bag – the
use of excessive single use plastic that greatly affected our environment. Global warming
is one of the effects of improper plastic waste disposal.), Campaign name (“No to plastic
for greener community”) and at least three ways on how to solve each issue.

Instruction:
The class will be divided into six (6) groups with five to six members each. They
need to research several cyber news online and current events related to cybercrime in
the Philippines. Students must apply the tips on how to do proper online researching by
getting the right facts and relevant sources. Students must also bear in mind the tips on
avoiding copyright infringement by while researching their content. The script for the radio
broadcast will be submitted to the teacher including the sources and references gathered
by each group.
Using a cellphone or any audio recording device, the group must report as if they
were a newscaster. The groups must also create or research two to three advertisement
on how to be safe and secure online by following ICT netiquette and ethics. The groups
must present the edited audio recording with a minimum of 5 minutes and a maximum of
10 minutes. Each group must submit their output here: https://bit.ly/3riOgwD.
Below is a guide on how the students can create their cyber radio news report:
• Write like you speak: Write in your own voice, in a conversational tone, as if you’re
speaking to only one listener. Keep sentences short. If you have a long sentence,
follow it up with a short one. When you go back and read your narration aloud, do
you truly sound like yourself?
• Keep it simple: Allot a sentence to each idea. Be clear and concise, stick to the
story and don't try too hard to be "clever." Too much detail can become irrelevant
and make the story lose focus. Avoid most multiple-syllable words, words that are
tough to pronounce and long, convoluted sentences.
• Provide specificity: Although the goal is to write clearly, you must also avoid
being too general. Dillon says reporters should provide context for anything that
may cause confusion or "raise eyebrows." When describing people, don't label
them. Tell exactly what they do as opposed to using their official title.
• Tell stories in a logical order: Make sure that your content has a beginning, a
middle and an ending. Don't bury the lead; state the news near the top, without too
much buildup.
• Use the present tense and active voice: You're writing for flow and to express
what is going on now. Broadcast strives for immediacy. To convey this to the
listener, use the active voice whenever possible. In English, try to use a subject-
verb-object sentence structure. For example: "Police (subject) have arrested (verb)
21 activists (object) for staging a protest at Merlion Park on Saturday afternoon."
• Use imagery: Radio audiences need to imagine the people, places and things in
your story. With your words, create powerful and straightforward imagery. Use
descriptive verbs instead of adjectives. For example, if you say “he struts or
saunters” you’re giving a picture without using an adjective. But don't let vivid,
imagery-rich writing turn verbose. Use words sparingly.
• Let the speaker speak: If you’re hosting a show or an interview, be the host. Don't
overpower the subject of the story. When interviewing, "Don’t 'mm hmm' them and
don't keep talking and talking about yourself," Irani says. "You’re just a conduit
whose job it is to relay a story/experience/emotion from the guest to the audience."
