Learning Literacies [[1]] With Naviance, students get personalized information on specific schools, and also have the possibility of being introduced to unheard ones because it automatically provides ranked schools based on your academic profile

BEST Computers and Society Websites [[2]] As mobile devices increase their computing power I believe there is a chance in the near future that they could make laptops and computers obsolete as long as a docking process to make it usable with monitors and keyboards is in place.

2. Privacy and Freedom of Speech

Privacy and Personal Information [[3]] If countries regulated privacy on the internet differently I believe we will see a rise in revolutionary efforts for global freedom to equal access and use online.

BEST Learning Literacies: Protect It [[4]] It is imperative that general lessons be taught about sharing personal information such as vacation plans because cyber crimes often target unaware users who say they are going away for a specific time period as a source for robbery

Internet Predictions Database [[5]] Due to the fact we are currently in an online class with students from remote locations, do you see the advancements in technology selecting for the end of physical schools and colleges in the future?

BEST Art and Computers [[6]] Nowadays, metadata, which entails credit withing song direction and production, is not properly maintained by the currently trending music streaming industry. Companies like Spotify have "Missing, bad, or inconsistent song metadata" which allows "billions on the table that never gets paid to the artists who earned that money".

4. Crime

Computers and Crime [[7]] Computer crimes can both replicate "non-computer offenses, such as larceny or fraud" but also be administered through hacking, making it a versatile threat.

BEST Hacked -now what? [8]] If subject to a cyber crime you should know that "hackers often try to create accounts" with your identities like your email so you should check your accounts for possible random account verification emails and then delete them.

As women are provided more access to water and it's education they can also keep the water programs alive with their intuition, providing a societal role for them to be ingrained for a cultural evolution as beneficial assets to rural communities. These efforts have an additional advantage because of it's investment often times leading to a better response and mitigation approach to disastrous events not causing as much havoc as compared to backwards societies.

BEST Great Technologies [[14]] Octave is a free open source version of MATLAB which is a glorified calculator program. This programming language is simple to learn and efficiently helps complete homework assignments by saving variables and not working with a calculator and having to scroll on the small screen. Saving scripts with this program makes redoing homework much more efficient and helps you learn concepts much more easily by foregoing the simple mistakes that come with hand calculations.
