Media and Information Literacy: Day 16

        For the sixteenth day of our MediaLit1718, Mr. Opiana discussed about the Legal, Ethical, and Societal Issues in Media and Information Literacy. To introduce the topic, he flashed the following picture on the screen and asked us the following questions: Image Source:   https://www.cyberpatrol.com/assets/cyberpatrol/cybersharks_map.jpg Which ones do you understand? Which are the ones you don't know?         The ones that I were able to understand were the hackers, illegal downloads, illegal activity, XXX sites, drugs, sexting, identity theft and bullies. The ones that I don't know much about about are the avatars and gambling online. What possible dangers and issues of unguarded use of the internet are depicted in the picture?         People, especially children, who are still unfamiliar of these dangers may become victims of these kinds of activities on the internet. People need to be aware that these dangers lurk on the net and they fall victim to it.
