This awesome feature is good for students because they can use it for:

I agree and disagree with the video. Yes, we are very dependent on technology now a days but we are not necessarily addicted. Phones and social network in the internet is extremely addictive to people all around the world, but you choose if you avoid or embrace the addiction. For this reason, I think the decision is yours to be dependent or not in technology.
People that are addicted, i think should receive help to get them a little away and get them to depend less on technology. NOT necessarily an intervention or rehab, but maybe introducing them to the real world, to play with a ball and go outside to simply feel the fresh air hit their face.

Biometric Security
Biometric Security:
What do you know about the topic before researching it?
- I think it is the security scans that work with fingerprints.
How does it work?
What does it actually read?
What is biometric?
Who invented it?

- Biometric information includes weight, height, hair color, eye color, etc.
- Fingerprint identification: Your fingers develop bumps when you are in the fourth month of fetal development. these create a map on your fingers that are each unique. You do age and they become larger, however they are the same. Fingerprint scanners read the distance and pattern of each bump.
- Hand Geometry: the measurement and comparison of each detail in the hand.
- Retina Scan: retina scans analyze the patterns in veins in the back of the eye which remain the same throughout your life. It uses a low density light to capture these patterns.
- Iris Scan: provides an analyses of the rings, furrows and freckles that surround the pupil of the eye.
Overall, there are many ways to use biometric scanning. It is said to be one of the most advanced security systems in the world, since your unique body marks are almost impossible to fake. This security system forms part of my life since CNG is now implementing biometric security with fingerprint scanners to register entires and departures from the school. The system is still not active but it will be shortly.
Finally, I would still like to learn: How was biometric security first used?

Google Day 1
Goals:
1. Build a minecraft project
2. Create a good city to show special effects easily
3. Take a video of a tour, with effects, and post it on youtube
Today, Mathias and I researched how to start transitions, sturcturize a video and set up a scene for a video, to make editing easier. We researched transitions and learned how to mash them in iMovie for example. We also started working on our mine-craft scene for our final video.
Next class I wan tot learn how to professionally combine pics and video for better enhancement.

Google 20%
My partner, Mathias Kling, and I are going to research how to edit video. We want to learn how to edit video very well. These skills include video production, special effects and post production process. These are basic skills that one needs to master for video editing. Since we are not professionals, we are focusing on basic skills to be able to build from that.
To show our learning, we are going to present a short clip with AMAZING video editing skills. The idea is to blow the minds of the audience by showing something belived impossible in video editing. We want to show something original, our idea. What has never been created, has no comparison.
Great example of video editing: EPIC
