Would you want someone to use your for a school project? Do you think that they should get your permission first? Why?
Yes, I wouldn't mind if someone was to use my school project. I think they should get my permission first, before they use it because if they use it to get money I don't think that would be fair.

What does "Give Credit Where Credit is Due" mean to you? How does this apply particularly to social networking and electronic media?
When credit is due, give it on time to show your a person who does things on time.
Yes this apply particularly to social networking and electronic media such as paying your bills or time, taxes, phone bill and other bills.

In programming, multiple threads can communicate with each other by signaling events and handling events. An event, then, is like a message from one thread to another. In Scratch, blocks whose labels begin with "broadcast" signal events whereas blocks whose labels begin with "when" handle events, the latter of which, recall, effectively represent threads themselves.
This tutorial introduces budding computer scientists to the building blocks of programming by way of Scratch. It assumes that you are already familiar with Scratch's usage and, accordingly, have a general sense of how to program with Scratch. This tutorial aspires to formalize your understanding of programming, framing some basic programming constructs in the language of Scratch. After all, it is either true that some number is less than another number or it is false. Sometimes, you want one or more statements to be executed multiple times in a row. To implement this behavior, we turn our attention to loops. But of statements, Boolean expressions, conditions, loops, variables, threads, and events can you construct interesting (and fun) programs. In fact, let's explore the inner workings of what, on first glance, appears to be a very complex program but, ultimately, is just an application of these building blocks.

Social Networks
What are some of the problems that you face as teenager as a result of Social Networking? This would include using social networking sites, like Facebook and Twitter, Instant Messaging, SMS and or Text Messaging. How does interacting 24/7 affect the way you think and communicate? Does social media affect your school work in a positive or negative way? Do you agree or disagree with the author of this article that Social Networking affects both your writing skills and social manners? What do you think? Make sure to defend your position.
Teens now have a different set of problems than they did when their parents were children. However, one thing that remains the same is a teenager’s need for friendship and acceptance in school and other social arenas.
Teenagers enjoy using networking sites and texting there friends. It affects us because were not outside interacting with friends or doing typical things teenagers did years ago. Spending all our free time on the computer, to talk to friends we see everyday.Some people will go to extreme measures to satisfy their desires. Sexual abusers, drug dealers, and other criminals targeting minors are all willing to monitor, track, and wait until the time is right to pounce. Most of them are targeting multiple children anyway, so waiting for the right moment is not difficult for them. Therefore, parents must take the responsibility to do all they can to prevent their child from becoming a victim.
Yes,because were on the phone or using networking sites when we should be doing our homework or studying. Social networks makes us forget what we have to do. Some teenagers face internet addictions, making them only care about whats on the internet. The documentation is clear, many crimes involving teens, as both targets and offenders, stem directly from MySpace and other social networking accounts. As you read this, an online predator could very well be profiling your child in order to “groom them” online for a meeting, abuse or worse, all without your knowledge.
No, I don't agree with the author of this article that social networking affects writing skills and social manners because I use social network a lot. It doesn't change my manners or writing skills.our extended social network can act as your online eyes and ears, making you aware of new opportunities, information, and contacts that could benefit you. Networking works especially well if you have a strong personality and people know what you’re looking to experience. This alone can save you a tremendous amount of time and enhance your life immeasurably. One good contact can send your life spiraling in a fantastic new direction.

What is a variable? How are variable represented in Scratch? What are the two types of variables and how can they be used? What is a Boolean variable?
What is a variable?
A variable is something that can be changed, such as a characteristic or value. Variables are generally used in psychology experiments to determine if changes to one thing result in changes to another.
How are variable represented in Scratch?
With statements, Boolean expressions, conditions, loops, and variables now under your belt as building blocks, we can now explore two higher-level programming constructs, starting with threads.
What are the two types of variables and how can they be used?
We can distinguish between two types of variables according to the level of measurement:
1. Continuous or Quantitative Variables.
2. Discrete or Qualitative Variables.
What is a Boolean variable?
A Boolean variable can be used to hold the integer values 0 or 1, or the C++ literals true and false, which are implicitly promoted to the integers 0 and 1 whenever an arithmetic value is necessary. The type specifier to declare a Boolean variable is bool in C++. To declare a Boolean variable in C, use the bool macro, which is defined in the header file. A Boolean variable may not be further qualified by the specifiers signed, unsigned, short, or long.

Loops
What is a loop?
A loop structure, the program asks a question, and if the answer requires an action, it is performed and the original question is asked again until the answer is such that the action is no longer required.
What are the labels of the loops in Scratch?
Looping and scratching audio is so familiar at this point that it may be hard to know what more can be done with the concept.
How is a conditional statement used in a loop?
In computer programming, conditional loops or repetitive control structures are a way for computer programs to repeat one or more various steps depending on conditions set either by the programmer initially or real-time by the actual program.

Question of the day
What is a condition?
A certain response elicited by a specifiable stimulus or emitted in the presence of certain stimuli with reward of the response during prior occurrence.
What are some statements of a conditional construct?
Examples:
if the cat will run then the dog will chase the cat.......conditional
if the cat will NOT run then the dog will NOT chase the cat......inverse
if the dog will chase the cat then the cat will run.......converse
if the dog will NOT chase the cat then the cat will NOT run ...contra positive
If p then q conditional
if q then p Converse
if negation p then negation q inverse
if negation q then negation p contra positive
the conditional statement and its contra positive are logically equivalent

What do you think of people who do not stand for the Pledge of Allegiance? If you do not stand explain why you don't? Why do you think you should or should not stand? Remember if you don't stand for something you will fall for everything.
I don't think nothing about people who doesn't stand for the Pledge of Allegiance. I personally don't stand because I'm not American and I highly believe its optional. I think its not a right or wrong thing if you don't stand.
Boolean expressions What is a Boolean expression? What is the shape of the Scratch block that is a Boolean expression? When do you use Boolean expressions in programming?
A Boolean expression is an expression in a programming language that produces a Boolean value when evaluated, one of true or false. In Scratch, any block shaped like an elongated diamond is a Boolean expression. The simplest control structure is the if..then..else statement.expressions in programming.

Question of the Day: Read: Statements What is a statement? What are some words that mean the same thing? What are some examples of statements in Scratch? List 2 examples of statements in programming.
A statement is an illocutionary act that has the assertive illocutionary point of saying that some state of affairs is true. Accede and Exceed is two words similar.
