If the Australian government banned the internet i would lose a lot of information at hand. I would find it had to complete assessments and work allocated by teachers. I would also find it hard to communitcate to other people far away. This is an issue because it would affect the way people do their work.

2.) Discuss the reasons why they have implemented such a program
The program has been implemented to reduce the amount of unwanted information and to help children to surf on the internet safer.
What changes/improvements would you make to this project?
In my project i would try to change the board game and give it some more colour and add harder questions. I will also try to provide some information background on the hsitory of the periodic table.
Favourite Project-why?
My favourite project would be the project done in Steven Zeater’s group. I think their project contained lots of important information and was constructed as a web site. It also has a trivia section and provides a easy and streamlined list of the first 20 elements.
How can you improve on your presentation skills in the next project.
In this project, i would choose to start the project earlier and make more research. I think its also important to allocate work among the groups and get them done before due dates.
Who in your opinion had good presentation skills? why?
In my opinion, i think John Lahoud had good presentaion skills. He proejcted his voice to the back and didn’t talk too fast. He also showed confidence and knew what he was tlaking about.
