Learning..



We were given two talks in the last few days, one on Internet safety and the other on female engineers at Intel.
The First talk really opened every ones eyes to the type of things that can happen on the Internet  and on face book. The man who spoke with us was so down to the point and really got across how dangerous some people are and how careful you should be. He told us things to do and not to do and the impact his talk had on the seniors in our school was incredible. everyone acted on it straight away . people were checking their friends on  face book to make sure they know everyone , and unhooking web cams and so on . I'm so happy we got it, because i would not have known half the things that people can do to someones life over the Internet , it was truly shocking.


The talk about Intel was also really interesting. Female workers came to tell us to work at Intel and why and to be honest , if I didn't have an idea of career already i would have been sold! the work that goes into all those tiny chips that let us use computers and phones incredible!  They use robots , which obviously caught our attention , but not robots that we were all imagining. They girls were really great and all told us about their degrees.
