Gimp: Cover yourself!

Lion-beach, step by step

Statue poster

The first I have to do is export the image in different formats: .xcf, .jpeg, .png, .gif....

I open the .xcf image and edit this with Gimp: change the color, the size,the brightness, put a title, cut out a part of the photo and paste in other place, etc...

And finally, when I have edited him, I keep it as "statue-poster" and export the edited .xcf file in .jpg. And make it a post in blog.

Computer Network

WHAT IS A COMPUTER NETWORK?

A computer network is a set of connected computers. Computers on a network are called nodes. The connection between computers can be done via cabling, most commonly the Ethernet cable, or wirelessly through radio waves. Connected computers can share resources, like access to the Internet, printers, file servers, and others. A network is a multipurpose connection, which allows a single computer to do more.

WHAT IS A LOCAL AREA NETWORK (LAN)?

A local area network (LAN) is a group of computers and associated devices that share a common communications line or wireless link to a server. Typically, a LAN encompasses computers and peripherals connected to a server within a distinct geographic area such as an office or a commercial establishment. Computers and other mobile devices use a LAN connection to share resources such as a printer or network storage.

WHAT IS A IP NUMBER?
The Internet Protocol Address (or IP Address) is a unique address that computing devices such as personal computers, tablets, and smartphones use to identify itself and communicate with other devices in the IP network. Any device connected to the IP network must have a unique IP address within the network. An IP address is analogous to a street address or telephone number in that it is used to uniquely identify an entity.

HOW TO FIND YOUR COMPUTER IP NUMBER?

The IP is in the computer terminal. You have to put "ifconfig" and press enter.

Operating Systems 4/4: File System

The File System 

What it is?

In a computer, a file system (sometimes written filesystem) is the way in which files are named and where they are placed logically for storage and retrieval.

The File System in each Operating System

DOS, Windows, OS/2, Macintosh and Unix-based operating systems (OSes) all have file systems in which files are placed somewhere in a hierarchical tree structure.

File pathes

In most operating systems and file systems, a route can be expressed in relative or absolute form.

• An absolute or full path points to the same location in a file system, regardless of the current working directory. To do that, it must include the root directory. 
• By contrast, a relative path starts from some given working directory, avoiding the need to provide the full absolute path. A filename can be considered as a relative path based at the current working directory. If the working directory is not the file's parent directory, a file not found error will result if the file is addressed by its name.

Operating Systems 1/4

The operating system is a set of programs that accompany the computer and that allows to manage both hardware and software as well as communications between the user and the team. To do these tasks, the operating system must perform fundamentally the following functions: 

-MANAGEMENT OF HARDWARE RESOURCES. Directs and coordinates the operation of all computer resources. 

-PRESENTS THE USER INTERFACE. It provides a form of communication between the user and the machine. 

-MANAGE THE ARCHIVES. It is responsible for storing the data in the storage units and performs the tasks related to its manipulation.

-ADMINISTER THE TASKS OR PROCESSES. Operating systems are multitasking so you must regulate the allocation of different resources between the tasks in execution.

-MANAGE THE PROGRAMS. It allows its installation, update and install programs. It also loads, initiates, supervises, controls and ends the execution of programs.
 
-CONTROL COMMUNICATIONS BY NETWORK. It allows connection and communication between the different devices connected in the network.

My future studies and ICT

Change into English!

To change the operating system language I have to leave the session and click change the language to english and I enter again in my session.
To change the gmail language, I click settings and go to change the language to english (UK).

Security basics

Esta és una activitat que hem fet a classe en l'aplicació Gimp. La mestra ens a donat una fitxa per a veure lo que teniem que fer i per a seguir els passos tal com ens ha dit.

Netiqueta

QUE ES LA NETIQUETA?

La netiqueta s'utilitza per referir-se al conjunt de normes de comportament general a Internet. La Netiqueta no és més que una adaptació de les regles d'etiqueta del món real a les tecnologies i l'ambient virtual. Encara que normalment les tendències d'etiqueta han evolucionat fins a arribar a formar fins i tot part de les regles de certs sistemes.

 LES NORMES DE LA NETIQUETA:

Regla 1: Mai oblides que la persona que llig el missatge és en efecte humà amb sentiments que poden ser ferits.

     Regla 2: Adhereix als mateixos estàndards de comportament en línia que seguix en la vida real.

     Regla 3: Escriure tot en majúscules es considera com cridar, i a més, dificulta la lectura.

     Regla 4: Respecta el temps i l'ample de banda d'altres persones.

     Regla 5: Mostra el costat bo de si mateix mentre es mantingua en línia.

     Regla 6: Compartix el seu coneixement amb la comunitat.

     Regla 7: Ajudeu a mantenir els debats en un ambient sa i educatiu.

     Regla 8: Respecta la privadesa de terceres persones, fer un grup contra una persona està malament.

     Regla 9: No abuses del teu poder.

     Regla 10: Ser objectiu sobre temes el bé primordial no afecta el general.
