     E-learning allows children from ages 5-10 build and strengthen skills in math, science, reading, computers, etc.    

     In order to be a part of e-learning kids, you have to set up an account on the website. When you have become a member, you choose a course on the site that your child needs improving on. There are different categories in each subject that you can choose from, therefore it allows your child to learn from any specific problem they are having in that subject. Once you choose, it gives you a step by step lesson on that specific subject, and allows your child to learn at their own pace. E-learning not only teaches you, but involves your child too.     

     E-learning is a website for teaching children ages 5-12 to enhance their learning abilities. It is free for anyone! It not only helps children, but it also helps teachers and parents come up with fun ideas for educating children. E-learning can be used by anyone, but its main focus is to children, teachers, and parents. It is a great way to improve your child’s grades if he/she struggles in certain areas in school. It is also a good way for home schooling children to learn at an equal pace as students. Children are not the only ones that learn from e-learning. Commercial education and game developers learn from this site to contribute to the next generation so that we can keep coming up with new, productive ways of allowing children to become more successful.    

     E-learning for kids promotes sharing and social networking by bringing students and parents together.  They have an online chat forum for teachers and parents to share their knowledge and come up with new ideas. This also is a way of communication. E-learning for kids brings a sense of collaboration between parents and their children. Not only does it benefit the child, but the parents become engaged in their child’s education, and also get to know their child more by spending time with them. E-learning for kids promotes the idea of communication, collaboration, sharing and social networking.    

     E-learning for kids has its advantages and disadvantages. Although this website is very beneficial to students, it may cause problems for schools and teachers, or even students themselves. If parents find e-learning to drastically improve their child’s grades, they may pull them out of school and continue to use it as a teaching source for them. It also may create problems for the teacher, if students are going home and learning things differently then the teacher is teaching them. This may create problems for the student if they are confused, and also for the teacher’s lesson plans. Even if it may be risking these things, it helps children’s grades improve.

     I like this site, because it to gives every child a chance to learn. Even though all kids learn at a different pace, it gives everyone a chance be equal.  I also really like the way it teaches. Instead of just posting the information and expecting them to understand, they take it step by step and also make it fun at the same time!

     Consumating is a free online dating source for single people looking for someone with the same interests as him/her.

     In order to participate in Consumating, you must become a member. To do this, you create a username, and set up an account. Once you make an account, you create a profile with information about yourself (interests, hobbies, etc.), whatever information you feel comfortable sharing. You can also upload a photo of yourself and set it as your default for everyone to see. Once your account is made you can add friends by browsing, or searching for a specific person. You can also become involved in the site and meet new people by joining certain contests that go on. You can talk with people by messaging them or starting a “conversation” with them. It is a great way to get to know people and maybe even find your perfect match!

     Consumating is mostly directed at single people looking for their perfect match. It is a great way to meet new people throughout different places in the world, and if you’re lucky, you may even find your special someone!

     Consumating has its advantages and disadvantages. It may or may not be successful for everyone that uses it. Some people may find their match, others may not find it useful, and just use it for talking to friends. If you are not careful, Consumating can be unsafe. It is important to remember that not all the people join this dating site for the same reasons. You have to be very cautious about who you talk to and especially about meeting your online friends in real life. Make sure you know them well enough and also that when you meet them, to go in a group of people so you are not in any danger if they turn out to be the wrong person. Other then that, Consumating is beneficial to most people that join.

     Consumating is a great example of a site that promotes communication and collaboration. It is all about communication! No matter what you are doing, you are always communicating. This site allows you to communicate between people throughout the world by talking to eachother. It also promotes sharing and social networking, because by making a public profile, it is allowing everyone to see it, and by doing this, it is promoting social networking.

     I really think this site is good for a lot of people, because it allows everyone to get a chance to find someone that could potentially be their perfect match. I really like the idea of making a profile, and posting any information you want to on it, so that people can read about you first before they add you, to see if they are interested in you or have anything in common. I think it is great that you can browse people, that way you can maybe even find people that live near you! Even though this site may have a couple downsides, if you are careful and use this site for the right reasons, you will have successful outcomes, and have fun!

COMMUNICATION

Filed under: Uncategorized — suhmanthuh @ 10:00 am

Communication is the way we understand eachother. There are many different types of ways on how to communicate, some of them we are born with and some of them we learn throughout life.

Some of the ways we communicate with eachother throughout the world are by languages, media, literature, internet, telephone, mail, and even just by our physical actions toward eachother.

We use languages by talking to eachother and translating different languages to communicate with one another. Media is probably the biggest part of communication. We get things across the world to eachother by using magazines, television, music etc. The internet is also a big part of communication. We use e-mail, webpages, blogs, google etc to talk to eachother in any other place of the world. Television has the News which lets us all know what is going on in the world and we also learn new things by watching certain TV shows. Music definetly has a huge impact on a lot of people, especially teenagers. Certain music makes us think certain things because it tells us how to be as a person, or influences us, on both good and bad things.

 We all have different ways of communicating with eachother, its just a matter of understanding eachother.
