Interland for Digital Citizenship and Safety
Title: Interland for Digital Citizenship and Safety
Introduction:
Digital Learning Object:
Interland - Have a look!
Reflection: In my analysis, I isolated my thoughts for the concept and the design of every level in Interland.
First is Reality River, at this level, you'll be given an idea on how to avoid scammers or hackers. There are questions to be answered and there will be choices, you just need to choose the best answer. The design is a river with rocks and that river runs through the flow with fact and fiction, and there will be blocks that you are going to jump on when you answer the questions on each platform until you reached the other side of the river. Second is Tower of Treasure, at this level you will learn how to create a unique password that is strong and difficult to hack. The design is like temple run. But in this game, you will run on to a dessert with high rocks and you will be going to collect some blocks with small letters, capital letters, numbers and symbols to create a phase which will be your password. If you bumped on a rock, the last two letters that you collected will be taken by the outrun hacker. Third is Mindful Mountain, at this level, it teaches you on what and whom to share something carefully online. The design is there will be a machine that has a light on it and you need to bounce each post off the mirrors to get it to the right internet you wanna share the information with. Fourth is the Kind Kingdom, at this level, it tells you on how to spread positivity online, and help people that are suffering and affected by cybercrime. The design is you will jump on a land and there will be internuts on some of the lands and you need to send them good vibes, and there will also be the internut bullies and all you need to do is block and report the bullies.
Interland is made for young people to be an awesome and fearless explorers of the online world in a quest to deny hackers, sink phishers, one-up cyberbullies and outsmart overshares. It is good to have this kind of gaming website. You can learn something from it and apply to your internet usage. You can help people by letting them visit and play Interland, so they can be also an internet awesome!. I had fun on every level that I played in Interland. I am hoping that Interland will have more levels to play to become more interesting.

Slave Trade Triangle Paragraph
What is the Slave Trade Triangle and how were the freedoms and human rights of slaves taken away?
Paragraph 1:
The Slave Trade Triangle was a dreadful trade system that carries guns, weapons, goods, and include selling African slaves who have lost their freedom and human rights. European sailed from Europe to Africa, they used the sale of guns and weapons on to the African Kings for the return of buying their slaves. African slaves such as men, women, and children were taken away from their families and country against their will. This part was called the First Passage of the Slave Trade Triangle. The next part of this Slave Trade Triangle system would be the murderous treatment of Americans on the slave's ship which will be the Middle Passage.
Paragraph 2:
The Middle Passage was those routes that went from Africa to the New World including both the Caribbean and the Americas. Africans were taken to the Caribbean and sold. The rest of the slaves were shipped to America and processed for auctions where the Cotton, Tobacco, Sugar Cane and other products slaves produced. During the journey, slaves were being tortured, murdered, and killed. Other slaves decided to kill themselves due to their situation by simply jumping off the ship to drown in the Atlantic Ocean. It’s either because they didn’t follow the commands of the slavers or they became a rebel against the crew and captains. Men were made to dance to keep them fit, women were being raped by the slavers, and some children were being killed. The next step would be how Africans live their lives in America as a slave.
Paragraph 3:
The other Africans were shipped to America and they spent their whole life working in there until death. Young slaves play with the Master's children. Adult slaves work on a farm, and will be picking cotton and tobaccos, and when they had enough, all cottons, tobaccos and other products are put back on ships and sent to Europe and once the ships get to Europe, then more guns and weapons are purchased. Being a slave is hard because if you didn't collect enough cotton and tobacco or disobeyed your Master's orders, then you would be punished. The common punishments were whipping, slaves coffles and branding. You will be punished by an overseer whip when you attempted to run away and this will leave a deep scar on to your body. Slave coffles were used to move the slaves across land masses, so they wouldn't escape. But they're usually used during the march to the West Africa Coast. You would have these coffles around your necks with hands tied. Branding your skin in order for the owner trademarks. The next step would be escaping from slavery to freedom using the Underground Railroad by the help of Harriet Tubman.
