     What is credit alligator? It is copying words or ideas from those sources without giving credit to the author. Copying others work without the permission of the owner or the author. You claim others work.

     For example,Some people claim quotations or sayings. When they take quotations they don't put quotation marks to show that it is a direct quotes. When taking information or ideas in books they just copying the words but they don't change the words or they just paraphrasing the sentences.

     You/We must give credit to sources of information and ideas. We should not claim others work. If we are not the one who write, we must give credit. If we/you forgot to give credit you stolen other works without their permission. Why we should give credit? So that the reader can tell what is yours and what is someone else.

Responsible Netizenship

        What is Netizenship? Is a person actively involved in online communities. Internet user. A net "citizen".

        There have been many people use internet. Even little children already know how to access internet immediately nowadays. So the parents should not train their child to use the internet. Parents should limit their child to use the internet. The Internet has some positive aspects but there are also negative aspects to the information highway. More teens use internet than adults. Me as a teenager, most of the time I use internet I play games, chat with my friends, listen music and etc. I use internet to search my assignments or research paper and school works. 

       We internet users, we should know our limitations when we use internet. We know what is right and wrong. For me, we should reduce the use of internet. In that way we can also conserve electricity.Maybe, we simply use internet if we have something important to do. Also, Many students will be lazy to do their school works when we abused to use internet. Internet addiction is negative aspects of the internet such as exposure to sexually explicit material and online victimization including harassment or cyber bullying and sexual solicitation. Government should enforce law that cyber bullying,sexual solicitation and harassment are prohibited on the internet. Anyone who is caught shall be punished.

       Intellectual property rights are the rights given to persons over the creations of their minds. They usually give the creator an exclusive right over the use of his/her creation for a certain period of time. Taking the works of others without the permission of the owner is stealing or called plagiarism. Before we simulate the works of others we should seek permission first.
