Mission 2:Culture/Product



PERSONAL DATA TRACKING



"PRODUCT"


Our team decided to present our project using the powerpoint presentation, talking about the behavior of good and bad online trackers.
  I achieved some knowledge in this field and using the following method to understand human nature, I asked my friend who was trying to quit his smoking bad habit to track himself using the following apps: 
  • Fitness
  •  Healthy Diet
  •  Quit smoking 
  • Sleeping cycle alarm clock app

And the result surprised me as I noticed when he's doing Fitness during the week he's smoking one cigarette per day, and other days the number of cigarettes is increasing. In conclusion, I can say that this type of apps is working for some people, who can not control themselves and need any technological interference. His reaction was also surprised him, and now he is going to continue to use those apps, until the final result. I hope, he will do it, and I am so happy that I can help him. Below was the chart that I asked him to complete and looking at it we can see how Data Visualization can help to understand human nature.


The older generation who maybe never heard about online trackers can sleep without using a sleeping App, can manage and organize their life without any apps, but the new generation who are too close to technology can not live without it. 
During my researches, I have been shocked at how it is possible to track all your personal information. 

 During my part of the presentation, I represented Advantages and Disadvantages. 
As a parent, I am tracking my children's online behaviour using the Family Link app, and that type of app can do the following:


Advantages 


1)Kids online behaviour

▪ PARENTS CAN CONTROL AMOUNT OF TIME SPENDING ONLINE
▪ TRACK THEIR LOCATION
 ▪ BLOCK TEXT & APP


2)Teenagers online behaviour:

SPYZIE new type of app, which can help you to track teenagers online behaviour:

  • View Call History
  • text messages 
  • Track Locations 
  • Monitor Facebook
  •  Instagram
  •  Record Wifi History
  •  Monitor multimedia files

There are also disadvantages :

Disadvantages:

Some rich people, politicians are keeping their money in Offshore Banks, as they don't desire to be tracked by online trackers.
3)

Mission 1:Creativity/Process

Creative Coding... "PROCESS" What is Creative Coding? It's a good question, Let's find out together. "Good code is a short, simple and symmetrical-the challenge is figuring out how to get there"-(Sean Parent) When I chose this mission, to be honest, I didn't have any idea what I am going to do, and how I am going to do it. I went to the shop and purchased the Coding book, and found out a lot of computer programing codes, and I chose one coding program called Python.  I said myself, ok, great, I found it, and started to learn that new computer programing language. But you can't imagine it's not as easy as it looks at first sight. I found myself in a hard situation, and can't get out from there. When I met my team group member Julia and Cormac, and we started our discussion about Creative coding, we thought to use HTML computer Mark-up language and CSS.  This looked like a bit easier than Python, and we started to do our researche...

Mission 1/Creativity/Product

Creative Coding...! "Product" Continuing our teamwork and discussing all aspects of it, first of all, we need to concentrate and delivered good products working hard and using our time rationally and effectively.  As we were decided to make a web page, by the way, it was the first time that we were doing it, so we should manage our time as I said effectively.     So, we divided our tasks into three parts and eventually made it a whole. I had to submit a web page where I had to include a poem, a picture, and a summary of it all on the web page .  Before starting my researches, I should have focused on the main product, in this case, it was a poem. But to add a poem to the web page would not be interesting, and to make it more attractive I had to add an image that would appropriate the poem, as I chose a poem about the famous artist Hovhannes Ayvazovski 9th of the Wave, written by one of the most famous Armenian writer Hovhannes Tumanyan. S o I found ...
