__This document is an assessment for Math class in my courses of MYP3 class.__
Stage 1: Facebook D.O.B.

What the assessment was about was using our Facebook accounts we had to go through our friends list and see how many of our friends show their full DOB or date of birth for me I had 157 friends and 71 of them showed their full DOB. It was very annoying and time consuming to go through all of my friends accounts and look at their date of birth however I also felt sorry for everybody else because some of them had double the amount of friends I had to go through.

Stage 2: Facebook Stalker



For this part of the exercise I had to make a new email account and sign it up to Facebook with a random name and random DOB and send my real friends in real life friend requests i eventually got to the site limit and it said i was over using the [Friend] button which really screwed me up in that part so I could not send friend requests for a 7 days so I ran out of time on that but I got 22 of my friends to add me proving that some people will add anyone.

The internet is a good resource to kids that does not mean that it is safe. Many kids are online a day below is a pie chart that shows approximately how many children in the USA are using the internet. __Internet Safety of Kids__ The internet can pose hazards to children for example an 8 year old can be looking for Lego on the internet but with one mixed up key the internet and type in Legs which would damage him for life.

__Internet Safety of Teens__ The biggest problems with teens on the internet are cyber bullying and plagiarism. Teen feel that anything they find on the internet is true for example look at the picture below. This picture shows that teens rely on the internet to much and use it non stop and they even take information rite from the internet knowing or unknowing they still do it. Cyber bullying is also a major problem especially with social sites research shows that many kids don't go to school to the result of bullying and cyber bullying the children become freaked out of their mind by the bigger and stronger kids eventually being afraid to go to school and then becoming unintelligent and being unable to get a job for when they are older to be then have to be looked at after and taught when they are older therefore being behind on everything.

This information was gathered by myself in class work and research.
