Video pad

We're going to finish our term doing a video about news using a program of free software called Video pad.

What Is VideoPad?


VideoPad is editing software that helps in the enhancement of videos to give them a professional touch. It has many tools that can help you transform your homemade videos and share them with friends and family through various media. Here are some of the features of this software:

Effects

The effects in this software allow you to select from an array of fading transitions, preview them as real time applications and also set the time of the chosen effect. Therefore, you get to choose the manner in which the effects take place, control the amount of time for the effects, and preview them like they were final products.

Optimization

With VideoPad, you can easily add digital images and pictures, while also adjusting the brightness and contrast for your video. You can create effects similar to those found in old images and videos by applying the black and white effects. You can also play around with the sepia and negative toned effects. VideoPad allows you to input text or captions onto the video as well. There is also a set of great audio tools to experiment with.

Audio Tools

You can import set musical tracks or be more creative and come up with your own by combining two or more tracks. This tool also allows you to select or make your own soundtrack for your video. You can even input your own words into a narration on the video or if you have an existing one, you can simply import that to be added to the final product.

Social networks

My partner and me did a presentation about what is a Social network, how you can use it, types and security.
Here I put the link because we did it in Prezi, but, if you have problems to see it, also I write here the information.
I hope you like it!

http://prezi.com/k_zkfeul2zj5/social-networks/


A. Definition:

Alternatively referred to as a virtual community or profile site, a social network is a web site on the Internet that brings people together in a central location to talk, share ideas, share interests, make new friends, etc.

B. Before & now:

This type of collaboration and sharing of data is often referred to as social media. Unlike traditional media that is often created by no more than 10 people, social media sites contain content that has been created by hundreds or even millions of different people. Below is a small list of some of the biggest social networks used today.

C. Six Major Social Network Categories:

1.Social connections
2.Multimedia sharing
3.Professional
4.Informational
5.Educational
6.Hobbies

1.Social connections

Keeping in touch with friends and family members is one of the greatest benefits of social networking. Here is a list of the most widely-used websites for building social connections online.

• Facebook: Arguably the most popular social media utility, Facebook provides a way for users to build connections and share information with people and organizations they choose to interact with online.



• Twitter: Share your thoughts and keep up with others via this real-time information network.

• Google +: This relatively new entrant to the social connection marketplace is designed to allow users to build circles of contacts that they are able to interact with and that is integrated with other Google products.





• MySpace: Though it initially began as a general social media site, MySpace has evolved to focus on social entertainment, providing a venue for social connections related to movies, music games and more.



• Tuenti: is a Spanish social network that is similar to Facebook.


2.Multimedia sharing

Social networking makes it easy to share video and photography content online. Here are some of the most popular sites for multimedia sharing.

YouTube
Flickr
Picasa
Instagram
Vine

3. Professional & 4. Informational

3.Profesional
Professional social networks are designed to provide opportunities for career-related growth. Some of these types of networks provide a general forum for professionals to connect, while others are focused on specific occupations or interests. A few examples of professional social networks are listed below.
 LinkedIn
 Nurse Connect

4.Informational
Informational communities are made up of people seeking answers to everyday problems. For example, when you are thinking about starting a home improvement project or want to learn how to go green at home, you may perform a web search and discover countless blogs, websites, and forums filled with people who are looking for the same kind of information. A few examples include:
Super Green Me: HGTV 
DiscussionForums: Do-It-Yourself Community.

5.Educational &  6.Hobbies

5.Educational
Educational networks are where many students go in order to collaborate with other students on academic projects, to conduct research for school, or to interact with professors and teachers via blogs and classroom forums. Educational social networks are becoming extremely popular within the educational system today. Some examples of such educational social networks are listed below.
The Student Room, The Math Forum, ePALS School Blog, Classroom 2.0, Academia.edu

6.Hobbies
One of the most popular reasons many people use the Internet is to conduct research on their favorite projects or topics of interest related to personal hobbies. When people find a website based on their favorite hobby, they discover a whole community of people from around the world who share the same passion for those interests. This is what lies at the heart of what makes social networks work, and this is why social networks that are focused on hobbies are some of the most popular. A few examples of hobby-focused social networking sites include: Oh My Bloom, My Place at Scrapbook.com,
 Sport Shouting 

D. Build Connections with Caution

These are just a few examples of the many opportunities to engage in dialog via social media websites. The fact that there are so many ways to connect with like-minded individuals online can be very exciting and beneficial, but it's essential to proceed with caution. Keep in mind that not everyone who shows up on a social media website is who he or she claims to be. Exercise caution and closely guard your personal information any time you engage in social networking activities regardless of what kind of social utility you are using.

Computing Security

1. INFORMATION SECURITY

1.1 . Computer Security

• Physical security . Is understood as the set of measures and protocols for
control physical access to an item. Applied to computer security as
are measures to prevent unauthorized persons from reaching
specific device or terminal .
• Logical security . There are different protocols , algorithms and programs
can directly manipulate information by controlling access to the same
you from third parties. Passwords are encrypted and codes are part of the
logical security .
• Human Security . It is that which resides in the user who runs the
information. It is the responsibility it takes for the information and
measures and protocols of behavior held to manage
properly . Choosing strong passwords, non-disclosure and key
use of security tools are human security.

1.2 . Data protection by encryption

● ENCRYPTION .
Message encryption is certainly one of the
older systems to protect
communications. Different systems
coding, have evolved over the
history , but has been the application of machinery and
when computers cryptography algorithms
have achieved true complexity .
Symmetric encryption . Use the same key to
encrypt and decrypt . The key is shared by the
sender and the receiver of the message , using it the
to encrypt the message first and the second
to decode .
Asymmetric encryption . It uses two different keys, one to encrypt and one to decrypt . the
shared key to encrypt and public , the decryption key is secret and private . the
sender uses the recipient's public key to encrypt the message and , upon receipt , the
receiver uses its private key to decrypt it. This type of cryptography is
also called public key .
● HASH FUNCTIONS
The functions , are called cryptographic reduction , you have irreversible.
These functions operate on the data obtained from them a key that represents
nearly uniquely . The fundamental property of these algorithms is that if two
hash keys are different , it means that the data that generated these keys are
different .
● steganography
It is a set of methods and techniques to hide
messages or within other objects , so that not
perceives the existence of the former. A hidden message
formed by the first letter of each sentence in a text is
a form of steganography. There are programs that
enter data into images or music files
taking advantage of the limitations of the human senses ,
well as inaudible frequencies in a file
audio or small "imperfections" in an image.

1.3 . Securing Communications :

● THE FIREWALL
A firewall is a
element responsible for controlling and
filter connections to a network
machine or set of machines.
It is a basic mechanism
Threat prevention
intrusion. It involves
barrier between
computer or private network and the world
outside. Controls access by
entrance and exit to the outside , filter
communications, records
events and generates alarms.
● PROXY SERVERS
It is a computer that acts as an intermediary between a client and a destination. when a
customer wants information , connects to the proxy server rather than with the
target server.
The proxy server contacts the server
destination as if the customer
and once the information is obtained
sent to the computer that initiated the request.
In a local network for a proxy server can
offer this service to all computers,
so that communications are not
performed with the outside but only
with the proxy server. Furthermore, this
is the only server that accesses and
exchanging data with the external network.

1.4 . Security Wi- Fi network

When the information travels over radio waves , they are accessible to any
receiver is within the area they cover, is authorized or not.
With the proliferation of such networks is quite common to find that the same
terminal receives signals from several neighboring networks. It is therefore important to protect
Wi -Fi communications possible
intruders.
There are two reasons for this. first
place to ensure the confidentiality of
communications network . Secondly ,
to prevent an intruder from using the
network to carry out illegal actions
will end up being charged to the owner of the
same .
To protect Wi-Fi networks used various
security protocols the most common
are : WEP , WPA and WPA2 , provided that
it may have been in use since the latter
which is the safest .

1.5. Safe Surfing : https protocolç

This web communication encryption protocol is a secure version of the http protocol
web , and is common in communications with banks, online stores and
private services. When you access a page that requires this protocol
client browser and server agree on making a communication
encrypted. Often some browsers indicate access to this service
using a padlock icon .

1.6. Safe Surfing : digital certificate

A digital certificate (also known as certificate
public key or identity certificate ) is a document
whereby a digital certification authority
ensures the link between the identity of a subject or
entity (for example, name, address and other aspects of
ID) and public key .
One element that can be used as
digital certificate is an electronic ID .

Gimp

In this term we're going to work with a program called Gimp and we're going to edit images with this programme. Here we have my first work.


QR Codes


What is a QR Code? 

A QR code  (abbreviated from Quick Response Code) is the trademark for a type of matrix barcode (or two-dimensional barcode) first designed for the automotive industry in Japan. A barcode is a machine-readable optical label that contains information about the item to which it is attached. A QR code uses four standardized encoding modes (numeric, alphanumeric, byte / binary, and kanji) to efficiently store data; extensions may also be used.

Storage. 

The amount of data you can store depends on three factors: the type (numeric, alphanumeric ...) data, version (indicates the density of the QR code) the level of error correction (higher error correction, lower capacity).

Data Types

-Numeric only. Max. 187 characters (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)
-Alphanumeric. Max. 114 characters (0-9, AZ [uppercase only]) -.> Less than Twitter.
-Binary / Byte Max. 78 characters .

Surely, this type is the most common, as it is sufficient to store a web address.

Version or Density



Generating QR codes 

These pages take you to generating QR codes:

-Kaywa. Generate your own QR codes, for example, the code in the illustration was created using this page and contains a URL. Use your phone to scan the code and navigate there.
-QR Stuff. QR generates slightly more sophisticated codes. On this page you can generate codes to navigate pages on YouTube, Facebook and LinkedIn, among others.

Phubbing

What is phubbing?

Phubbing (term formed from the English words "phone" and "snubbing") is the act of belittling who accompanies us to pay more attention to mobile or other electronic devices which in person.
90 percent of teens prefer contact via text than face to face.

When it starts?

It began the year 2007 with the birth of the smartphone that synthesizing few inches in the power of a desktop computer. With the ability to stay connected to the Internet anytime and anywhere, this obsessive practice that perpetuate many without even knowing it was generalized.

An example to combat phubbing

When you are eatting with other people, all of the person have to take away the
phone for the table. The first person that use the smartphone have to pay the food.

Information Technologies & New Information Technologies

                                          1. What are the IT’s and NIT’s?

1.1 IT’s

Technologies of information and communication (IT) are all the tools and programs that treat, manage, transmit and share information through technological support.


1.2NIT’s

New technologies of information (NIT’s) are referring to new media that in the last years have facilitated the flow of information.

1.3 Advantages and disadvantages


Advantages
·         Eliminates the geographic barriers, and any person can access to information they need from anywhere.
·         Investigations found a rapid diffusion and enriched with new ideas, because it is possible the collaboration between investigators separated by thousands kilometers.
·         Using distance learning systems there is the possibility of obtain a university degree through the Internet and get the title of graduate ESO or access to vocational training, facilitating access to education and culture.
Disadvantages
  •  We must have a means of to handle this information and this may produce a social disequilibrium between rich and poor sorting.
  •  Being able to get almost everything you want without leaving home means that the individual will communicate with the computer and less in person, which will lead to the deterioration of human relationships and the loss of social values.

  •  The computerization of almost every aspect of daily life makes us depend on the machines. This makes agencies such as ministries become paralyzed when "a computer breaks down" or "the network is down."
  • One of the biggest risks is that we spend so much time on these technologies and that prevents access to other manifestations of culture and human relations.

1.4 Evolution

Some refer as 3rd Industrial Revolution. Several key inventions that can be considered for this tremendous development:
• The first computers, which appeared in the mid-twentieth century.
• The appearance of the optical fiber.
• The discovery of integrated circuits, called chips.
• The TCP / IP for data transfer, and, years later, resulted in the emergence of the Internet.
• Later came the microchips.
• Communications satellites.
• Wireless technology.

2. The NIT's in society and in professional applications.

2.1 The impact of NIT’s in the economy.

The NIT's ensure competitiveness between companies.

 

 

 

 

 

2.2 Employment generation

By increasing productivity due to the use of I's is generating more jobs.

2.3 New distribution channels and new market dynamics

The product distribution channels grow through online shopping (Mercado Libre, MasOportunidades, eBay, deRemante) the new way to buy and sell benefited many.



                      







3. Communication tools offered by NIT's

WEB 2.O:
         Web 2.0 is the name assigned to the set of tools that are available on the web today. These tools are characterized by the potential users have to double-check : to be protagonists of the information circulating on the web .
 COMMUNICATION TOOLS :
         Several types of communication tools such as: Internet , discussion groups ( forums ) chat room (chat room) or " Weblogs " or "Blogs" . However we focus mainly on one of the most useful and therefore more used : email.
EMAIL:
        The email, also called e- mail is a message , letter or information that is sent from one computer to another . Currently may be different emails such as: Gmail , Yahoo , Hotmail ..
Properties and characteristics
• It is fast and economical. Shipping to anywhere in the world takes a few seconds to be received .
• Allows you to work directly with the received information using, for example, a word processor.
• You can send or receive a lot of information , and you can send files containing books , journals , data.
•You can send media as images and sounds.
• Send messages to groups of people using mailing lists .
• Don’t waste paper.

3.1 Principal browsers and searchers

Browsers:

1)Internet Explorer

2)Mozilla Firefox
3)Opera (navegator)

Searchers:
1)    1. Google
2)    2. Yahoo
3)    3. Bing
4)    Ask

3.2 Communication as a way to generate knowledge

Digital communication is an innovative way of perceiving and shows the world, offering at the same time the ability to interact with it and interconnected with others immediately. Because of the advantages of the Internet, this went from being a communication tool, to be also other form of marketing and knowledge.

4. Responsible use of the tools that NIT's put at our disposal


  • Do not publish true information or comments on the net.
  • Cyberbullying: Cyberbullying is for abuse.
  • Data protection and equipment.
Respect for intellectual property.
The copyright for protecting the rights of authors in their work, this in Spain is known as intellectual property.
