MEDIA AND INFORMATION LITERACY
1. Smartphones

loved ones.

- Poor spelling skill is caused by text messaging such as jejemon.
2. Laptops/Pc

- Creating a slide show presentation, a good communication of creating my own assignment
for easier access to the information.
- Multi-tasking activity; playing games in the laptop while having an online class.
3. Webcam
- It allows me to a face-to-face conversation to my brother and sister working abroad.
- It is easy to illustrate things visually to the person you are talking to.
- Other people grab the chance to use this for making profit by creating a record video on
themselves.
4. Headphones
- I used this to prevent other people from hearing the sound, either for privacy or to prevent
disturbing others when I’m communicating to the person I’ve talking to.
- It helps me to understand what are the words saying by the person that I’ve talking to on
the device with a good quality sound.
- It can make for a more dangerous situation if you wear them while you walk through busy
streets and doesn’t hear anything who calls your name even those people that surrounds
you.

- I used this as a “sub-gadget”, (if my phone is low battery, I have my tablet to use it
immediately) for doing my homework.
- Very convenient because you can use it anytime and anywhere you want, I used it for having
an online meeting as well.
- Not paying attention to the discussion of subjects in class brought by the online apps that
disturbing them and open for entertainment.
