3 topics on cyberwellness: -Danger with cyber contacts -Computer Security -Cyberbullying Danger with Cyber Contacts: We should avoid giving our personal details to other people or even pictures. If we give those personal information to the cyberpal, they might use this information to create accounts and say something embarrassing about you. We should also not meet our cyberpal as they might be a different person from what information they give. If you want to meet up with your cyberpal, you should discuss with your parents first or get an adult to go with you. If not, the cyberpal might do something impropriate to you.We should say NO to our cyberpal at all times if they want to meet up with you. We should also leave the chatroom immediately if we feel uncomfortable.The most important thing is to protect our computer and the valuable data from being damaged or stolen. This is because we sometimes store our credit card numbers, band accounts information,personal data inside our computer and it might be stolen easily. This intruders or hackers can email with a virus to break into our computer. To prevent this things from happening, we should install and update anti-virus and anti-spyware programmes,use a firewall,scan all email attachments,do not respond to any email or fake websites,use strong passwords and do not open any email or attchments from anonymous senders.
Cyberbullying: Cyberbullying is when someone is threatened,embarrassed,shamed,tormented or harassed using digital technologies. Digital technologies are like email,video,blog,website,sms and instant messaging.Cyberbullying are like when someone is bored and wants to do something to bully others or even wanting to take revenge through using digital technologies. Some people might even do it because of frustration,entertainment,social standing,to get a reaction,defending themselves,motivated by anger. Some might even be accidentally and do it for laughs. People might do this because they are upset,depressed,afraid of something,being embarrassed,their grades has deproved and suicidal thoughts. We should always avoid cyberbullying. If we happen to receive messages of people cyberbullying you,we should avoid it and tell an adult on how to resolve that problem. We should also not respond to rude email or text messages and stay away frin the phone,chat or email for a few days.We must also report tje bullying to the chat host/web host/internet service provider/mobile phone servide provider/local police.

Reflection: After doing this write up about cyberbullying,danger with cyber contacts and copyright,I got a clearer understanding about it and also know not to do such things. It is very dangerous and the consequences are really heavy. We must learn how to solve problems ourselves and not in the way of using digital technologies. We must also learn to protect ourselves by not leaking our personal information.
