Reflections
First for all, I was
appreciate what Mr. Gareth Morgan was done to us. I has benefit much from his
patience and friendly teaching. I like the way he teaches. He has combined the
teaching materials and games together to attract our interest. This method is
extremely useful, I enjoyed the game while learning English pronunciations.
This is the first time I felt interesting on learning English.
By the end of ES1102
module, I has learnt those right ways to write a formal essay and finally I
managed to write an academic essay. Although I has made many mistakes in the
draft one, I has did correction of the draft one and two by guide of Mr.
Gareth. Besides, I learnt the APA style to place the in-text citations within
sentences and paragraphs so that it is clear whose information is being cited
and what information is being quoted or paraphrased. Furthermore, I has also
learnt many useful grammar such as passive voice, articles, run-on sentences,
preposition and so on.
During the process of
writing the essay I has mate some problems. Firstly, due to I was leak of the
knowledge in English cause I unable to express my ideas and views in English.
In order to solve this problem, I has used the online dictionary to find the
words I should uses to present my thought in words. In additionally, I made
many grammar mistakes while writing the essay. However, I does not gave up and
not feeling ashamed to ask and learn from my friends.
In conclusion, I felt this
module was very helpful. I will use the knowledge I has learnt from ES1102 in
my future jobs. For example, I can use the writing skills to write my monthly
report to my supervisor. I enjoyed this module and learnt many grammar and
writing skills. I very appreciate that and feel very thankful to Mr.
Gareth.

The Essay Final Darft
In recent
years, social networking has been rapidly growing
in popularity over the world. It has become an integral part of human life.
According to the eMarketer (2003) report, there are around one in four people
worldwide has use
social network which is in total
of 2.18
billion people. Social media is a worldwide connectivity media and it has made
people’s lives easier, for example, seeking
a new job at home through the internet, real-time information sharing, free advertising,
keeping in touch with other people, and so on. However, with over use of social networking also had its
downside. In recent years, studies show that there are 5.43 million children in
United Kingdom who have experienced cyberbullying which is 70
percent of the young people (Jenny, 2014). Therefore,
to prevent the increasing of cyberbullying and crimes cases against young
people, two solutions are recommended: to restrict social media access for the United
Kingdom’s whole country people and to educate
children the right way of using social networking.
The cases of cyberbullying and crimes
against young people has become more and more serious in recent years. The Pew
Research Center states that 27 percent of teens aged 11 to 16 have encountered
cyberbullying once a month and 3 percent being cyberbullying every day (AMANDA, 2010). Cyberbullying is almost
same as the school yard bullying and it is defined as people using electronic communication to bully a
person. Nowadays, many teenagers use social media like Facebook, Twitter,
Wechat, and Whatsapp to bully other teenagers. Some of them use social media to
scam money. Cyberbullying
could have a negative impact on the children. It could bring childhood shadow which cause children to become autistic and keep away from
people. For example, Tyler Clementi who was a freshman
of Rutgers University committed suicide after his roommate spied on a same-sex encounter by using a webcam. His roommate posted the video about his behavior on
Twitter (The
New York Times, 2012). In additional, Phoebe Prince was bullied by her classmate at school
and followed her home via
her personal information on Facebook. She also received some bullying massages from social media and she has been called named such as “whore” and “Irish slut”. After that Prince has hang herself at
home (Helen, 2010). Therefore, the problem of cyberbullying must be solved.
One of the solutions to reduce
cases of cyberbullying is blocking the social media. The government should
restrict the social media access of young people. Therefore, these teenagers
have no ways to cyberbully other people. Some
teenagers like to follow other people’s behavior and they has copying other’s
behavior from social media such as YOUTUBE. Therefore by blocking social media,
teenagers could have lesser exposure to those inappropriate behaviors from
social media and become criminals. For example there are some countries were
blocked Twitter, Facebook and YouTube which are North Korea, Iran, China,
Pakistan, and Turkey. However this method can stop people cyberbullying, the
school yard bully cases still exits.
Furthermore, another method to prevent
cyberbullying is to enforce compulsory education. With the early beginning in
the school, children have the chance to learn the right way to use social media
and to be trained with the abilities of protect themselves from cyberbullying.
There are some skills to stop cyberbullying, for example, looking for signs of
harassment, stopping respond to the bully criminal, and blocking the person who
was bullying. With these skills, children will able to prevent themselves being
the victims of the cyberbullying. Besides that, school should teach student how
to respond when they were bullied. For example, they should save evidence and
look for help from the teacher or their family. Therefore, the helper could
reported the bully to the social media service providers. In additional, the
school must pay attention on teaching morals. Many of people think that morals
is a useless and not important subject. However, immorality is the key for
every crime to be happened. If the person is ethics, he would not do something to
hurt other people. Therefore, education is very important since it trains
children to be able to distinguish right from wrong.
In conclusion, social media not
only make human’s lives easier but it has provides the platform for the
criminal to be able to crime at anytime and anywhere. It is very important to
solve this problem. Therefore, blocking social media and the development of the
education are the solutions to reduce or to prevent cyberbullying and crime.

Reader Responde Draft 3
In David
Emm’s article, “The Perils of Over-sharing in Social Networks”, the author has
presented some ideas about the disadvantages or dangers of over-sharing in
social networks. The Internet is made human life easier, therefore it has
become an indispensable part of human [1]. They
have become more dependent on the Internet, for example, online shopping,
socializing, and banking. Although the Internet makes human life easier, at the
same time it contains some potential perils. In order to prevent the perils of
over-sharing, the author has shared some tips to protect personal privacy from
social networking. The author has clearly and practically presented his opinions
by giving some real examples and explanations.
In the
article, the author has stated that over-sharing in social networks will cause
personal consequences and damage the security of the organizations. I strongly
agree with author’s views, because I has seen some cases about over-sharing in
social networks around me.
Firstly,
by sharing personal information, which might get yourself in danger. For
example, I had a friend who put her personal information on Facebook has cause
herself being follow back home by a stranger. The stranger got my friend’s address
from Facebook and followed her go back. Luckily her father came home at the
same time, so that the stranger did not hurt my friend at the time. After that,
my friend has learned from the incident and deleted all her personal
information in Facebook. Furthermore, sharing by personal status troughs social
networks will cause some serious consequences. For example, you share the world
in tweet that you are about to go on holiday for few weeks to Europe. However
you did not noticed that actually you are just told criminals that your house
will be empty for a few weeks. Therefore the criminal is able to collect your
personal data from several social networks on the Internet.
Besides,
over-sharing not only will cause the personal consequences, it could also bring
side effects to the organization. The author has stated that if an employee
complained about the functions in new software his company has just launch
through Facebook, he might get agreements from others who are using the same
software as well [1]. However, the employee
actually tipped off other competitor companies about the new software. Therefore
they could develop or acquire a better new software to take advantaged from the
application.
In conclusion, the Internet has made our life easier
but over-sharing could cause some unnecessary troubles. So in order to prevent
those consequences, we need to be responsible on ourselves and make some
actioned to secure social networking.
