How far have we travelled?


Hi Blog world! Today in Cyber smart we had to make another interactive map and put a pin on where we were born. On the map above is where my classmates are born. 
We also had to answer some questions like...

How far have some students travelled in their lifetime to reach WPS?
Caroline has travelled 2,794 km from Samoa to NZ.
Maanov has travelled 2,444 km from Brisbane to NZ.

Why do people make the choice to move to a different countries?
Most Chinese people think that New Zealand is a better environment for their children. Some people might also go to a different country because their country is in danger or they have family in a different country.

Is this a trend in NZ society? What does the media tell us?
Yes because nowadays in New Zealand you can see many different cultural people on the streets. The media tells us that many people are coming into New Zealand because our economy is good, not many dangerous animals and a safe place to live even though bad things could happen to New Zealand.

James also showed us a video clip on vimeo called "The Lie." This video clip has a very strong point about racism and lies that they hear about themselves around the citizens in their country.
Click here to watch the video The video made me think about why people are being racist and saying mean things about people's backgrounds, and not being nice to each other. The video was very touching and powerful about what they said and thought.

Here is a link that will tell you some facts about NZ that might be the reason why people immigrate to NZ.

Please feel free to comment below and Bye!

Solving social media problems


In Cyber smart we had to come up with a scenario about online things that could happen to one of us in the future. We had to make 2-3 questions and answer it ourselves along as asking a buddy about what they would do. This was my one that I did and down below is what I would do if that happened to me.




I would tell my mum to have a chat with her mum about she being underaged and posting inappropriate stuff online. I will also tell my mum that she might get reported, fined and hated on the online society.
