Pilgrim Youth http://www.notourhome.com/pilgrimyouth/ en Copyright 2007 Sun, 22 Jul 2007 09:44:35 -0600 http://www.sixapart.com/movabletype/?v=3.2 http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss Filesharing - Is it Wrong? Today we talked about downloading music, games, and other things and whether it is illegal or not.

Brianna~ I think that police should work harder to catch the bad people who are trying to download music or games for free, and also the people that are putting these things on the Internet for free. It is crime, and it's going unnoticed. This is as bad as stealing, in fact, it is stealing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some of the students' questions:
Brianna~Hey, why would some weirdo who lives in a basement trick people and devote their lives to tapping into your account?

We learned how to use Christian websites, blogs and email to introduce people to Jesus. Oh, yes, even Blogs!

Alex:Why are people that don't believe in Christ considered lost?


Brianna-How can we spread the word of Christ through EMail, if everyone you EMail has already found Christ or won't listen??

brianna- Bless me! I keep sneezing! I have a cold!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(

Sharing music files can be legal IF you own the rights to the purchased copy. Accepting a copy of downloaded music is illegal and unethical IF you did not obtain the rights.

BRIANNA- I think that you should be able to share copied music within people you know, instead of just yourself as an extra. I have also realized how many laws i have broken. :(


Alex-HI! I got bored during this lesson. :)

BRIANNA AGAIN- I like making the little happy or frowny face! :) :( :) :( :) :( !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We learned about the anonymous nature…in other words, you can’t tell who you’re actually talking to just by looking at the screen name. We learned about chat, forums, and blogs.

Brianna: Hey, people out there. Do you think that we should ignore people, or stand up to them? J

Alex: HI!

We learned about emoticons today.

What are emoticons?

We also that this type of stuff applies to the VII, VIII, V Commandments.

We learned that email can valuable and harmful.

Bri: "I wasn't here last week, but I am learning too much!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There's too much info!!!!!!!!"

Dustin: "Why do you feel old? Robotron is cool."

Hanna: "After this class i learned that the internet is a jerk!, and people can be real jerks while on it"

Comments are appreciated. The class gets a kick when others on the Internet respond.

We are a Sunday School class (4th, 5th, &6th grades) learning during the Summer how to use the Internet and apply God's Word and the Commandments while using the Internet. Last week we learned the parts of a computer and general information abou the Internet.

This week we learned about files and directories and the dangers of just clicking any link on a website. For example, CNN.com gave us Orbitz popup, however, none of us had enough money to go to Cancun.

Alex also introducted to Whizball on Discoveryforkids.com. And Dustin sent us back with a "Robotron" classic game review.

Alex: "hi. I love Whizball"

Dustin: "I like Robotron!"


We'll be posting weekly...look forward to your comments.
Duane
