Zaeeda-SLJ-#Week 3 Day 1 (Driving Digital Innovation)

Week 3: Experiments and Gadgets
Day 1: Driving Digital Innovation
Welcome back to another great week of the summer learning journey. This is the third week meaning we have 3 more weeks left. I have had a fun start to the summer learning journey and can't wait get start. This week we will be learning about lots of amazing inventors and scientist that have changed the world for the better.

Activity 1: The World Wide Website
For this task we were asked to take a screen shot of 4 different websites that we find helpful for our learning. They can be websites we use at home and in school during class. We then had to put all of them into a poster or presentation, to share on our blog.

Tim Berner-Lee completely changed the world for us humans. Because he invented the World Wide Web, aka WWW. All the information and data on the internet is kept and read on the web.

Tim Berner-lee was also the first to create a website, the first ever website. We all spends heaps of time looking at website, for different purposes.  At school we often get a new website every year, to access our work. And we spend a lot of time on our class site.



Activity 2: Influencers

The second task required us imagine starting a YouTube channel. We then had to share on our blog what we would include in it and the type of content we would produce for our audience. 

YouTube was created in 2005 by 3 men Chad Hurley, Steve Chen and Jawed Karim. They later sold it to Google and made a fortune of 1.65 billion dollars. 

YouTube is a website that was designed to let people watch content made by people around the world. You can also create videos yourself and share those on YouTube. Anyone can have a YouTube Channel and the people that do are called Youtubers. Youtubers can make and post videos about anything, and of everything.  People can then watch subscribe and like your YouTube channels.

Activity 3: Apple Vs Microsoft

In the field of technology Bill Gates and Steve Jobs are two very important people.  Steve was a co-founder of Apple. Steve Jobs actually invented the apple computer, iPod, iPhone and iPad. Though he passed away in 2011.

Bill Gates is the founder of Microsoft, and created the Microsoft Software. Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Office it was all created by Bill Gates. Bill Gates is now one of the richest people in the world. His wife, Melinda, decided to create a charity called The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Bill Gates and Steve Jobs, both work with digital technology, and they were rivals, and always trying to beat each other in sales. They are not the only "rivals" in the world, mostly in sports. The All Blacks and the Wallabies rugby teams are both rivals.

Well that concludes today. I hope you enjoyed, I learnt heaps and can't wait to continue learning, and getting through these activities. My internet hasn't been working lately, so I haven't been able to keep up, meaning I have to continue to work hard in order to finish in time. This just goes to show how much we can't do without technology and the WIFI!
