Podcasting, photo sharing, storytelling, and completing web searches are all instances of modern literacies.

Remarkably, because they are all sorts of literacy, none of the cases of new literacies amaze me. We exchange knowledge and engage with our peers through gossip, word of mouth, and social media. Even games, as indicated in the document, use texts and history as inspiration. We are always eager to Research whatsoever topic we demand solutions to when we don’t know something.

I learned that literacy has always been developing from this week’s required reading. With the passage of time, the usage of old technology to learn has become increasingly obsolete. As new technology emerges, younger generations will become increasingly acclimated to them. They also discovered that, despite the few students that do not have access to technology, the technology available currently makes it simpler for learners to obtain their work.

This week, from Ted Talk I learned that a picture could well be captured and reused in marketing or even as a meme from everywhere. And also after this fact, it will be more simple for children to improve these things on their own. Also, I learned that Because it all depends on circumstances, it’s hard to classify people into two major groups. 

I mostly use Google because it has a lot of sources for the information that I’m looking for. Being able to find different websites help you more. Because it is like having different people explain the same thing in different ways. In this way, you can get the answer properly, even though I always look at the notes from the professors as the most important ones from the lecture. YouTube is also a good source because it has the listening option of everything. 

Yes, of course. I helped my parents. My mom had little difficulties learning some things but she was able to memorize it all. Also, I remember when I still lived in Europe I installed Skype on my laptop so my grandparents could talk to their kids who lived in the USA. I taught them some basic things, such as how to call and how to hang up.

One literacy that I cannot live without is Google Search. It’s “my best friend” for everything. My best friend in hard times LOL.
