6. post pictures on storyboard

I enjoyed learning little-known things about the amazing Eleanor Roosevelt .
Recording my own voice, I don't like speaking in front of people, even through a computer.
Finding out that Eleanor Roosevelt had humble beginings and was home-schooled was cool.
No, I didn't, because I don't like grading other people's work because to me it is a personal thing
Some parts yes, some parts no.

- 10 points: You’re a New “Foot” on the Block
I just took a test to see what my digital footprint was online, and my results were as I expected. I have basically no footprint online. I wasn't surprised because the only times I am ever online are for school, and though 10 years of occasionally being online may be cumulative, it would be almost impossible to find me amongst the many other Hannah Ramseys. Even if you could find me online, the only things you'd see would be positive or inconsequential.

Reflections
This year in Online Experience I've worked with blogs, Weebly, email basics, Voki, Toondoo, Diigo, Quizlet, Keytrain, and important topics of such as online safety, identity theft, netiquette, and bullying. The skills I've learned will help with future classes I will take, because many classes require blogging skills, and studying will be easier now that I have a Quizlet account, and knowledge on how to navigate the site. Emailing will be easier because I know what is considered acceptable and what is not. Now that I have started a portfolio, it will be easier to update it with materials for the colleges that want to view it.

Identity Theft Stories
"Oh, I know Jane, signing up for credit cards is annoying! Yeah, uh-huh, I just got done filling out the forms. I'm going to mail them tommorrow. Well, goodbye, I'm going out to lunch with my boss. See ya." Lori says to her broke and desperate neighbor, who just so happens to know the code to get into her house that has her social security number, bank account number, and credit cards, all splayed across the table. Once Jane is sure Lori is gone and noone is outside to witness this, she enters the house and records all of this vital data. After Jane returns to her own house, she pays the overdue mortgage and the electric bill, trying not to think about what she just did. "Survival of the fittest," she thinks, "this money is nothing to them. It was just this once..."
Seven months later Lori is still trying to figure out who has stolen her identity and all of this money every month. "Who would do this? Who could have done this? I've always been so careful..." But not careful enough, because you gave someone your code into your house, which is filled with hidden and private information, you unknowingly allowed someone to steal your identity...
Story #2
"Ha!" She thinks, "People are sooo dumb! Just throwing their social security number and all this potential money around. Jeesh. I'll show 'em for their stupidity!" She pulled a moldy envelope filled with someone's information. "Jackpot! Dumpster diving may not be glamorous, but the money you get sure is! This will pay the rent, and get my food, and be my money!" She looks at the name on the papers. "Chelle Morris. Huh! Poor sap, we even look alike! This will be a peice o' cake..."
Two months later Chelle Morris checks her account and finds mistakes. again. She calls up the company and tells them about the mistakes. The lady on the phone sighs and tells her that her identity might have been stolen and to call the police immediately. After explaining to the police her story, Chelle thinks, "How? How did this happen?" Well, throwing away important information is not a good idea. Make sure you shred it before you throw it away.

Identity theft is a really scary thing. Knowing someone could take your life's work away with just one mistake on your part, is kind of horrible to think about. What we need to do is to make sure we keep all of our private information safe by making sure we don't give any of our information away online. Even if we know or think we know the person, don't give the info online, do it in person.

I've been thinking about Kelsey alot. I set my profile picture to a blue rose, which she would have loved, but also represents me because blue is also my favorite color, and I grow roses. Today I am wearing eye makeup she once complimented me on as a way to honor her. I want to visit the site it all happened; I think it won't really be real until I see the flowers on the side of the road.
