Why is it important to remember who benefits from the advertisement when you view an advertisement?
So, the manufacturers who advertise their products can profit from people buying them.
Choose one form of persuasion and explain why it effectively persuades you/an audience.
Logical
When you use Logical, people can be persuaded with facts that benefit the person wanting to purchase the item.
Ethical
Ethical persuasion can convince people to buy a product because others say the advertised product is worthy of purchase.
Emotional
Emotional persuasions can touch the purchaser’s heart by connecting them to a personal moment.
Choose an advertising technique and explain why it effectively sells a product.
Straightforward Ads are an effective way of selling a product because they explain the product without hiding anything about it. This gives the purchaser trust and shows them what they get if they buy the product.
Core Competency Reflection
One strategy or activity that stimulated my imagination on this project was using inspiration from other ideas and combining other things for a better final result on my project while not directly copying something in the end.
Grade 9 was my first year in high school. I had to learn a few new things, including how classes worked. There wasn’t the same teacher for every class; there was now a new teacher for each. Fortunately, our school uses a semester system that has the same classes at the same time every day, so I got used to the new system very quickly.
A Useful Educational Website
I believe that YouTube is helpful; it can be used to learn a lot of information when used correctly. Multiple examples of how YouTube is valid can be shown. For example, when I was in social studies, most of everything we learned was from YouTube.
A Useful Educational Video
unfortunately, the only way I know to get to this video is not able to be embedded, but the video was The Story of Us. I am adding this because it helped me with one of my assignments significantly, and it was pretty interesting to learn about different types of intentions in Canada.
A Useful Educational Image
This is who I think of when I need motivation. My mom has been in school to become a social worker for about four years. It has been stressful for her, as she also needed to retake some classes to start her social work classes. But she hasn’t given up, and I want her to have the same determination.
But also, if I fail, my mother will become the very angry and ground me for 3.154e+7 seconds, which means I will have none of the following: Games, Phone, TV, Food, Love and support, A Bedroom, A House, and a life. (this is satire)
An Inspirational Quote
“Trying to grow up is hurting. You make mistakes. You try to learn from them, and when you don’t, it hurts even more.” — Aretha Franklin.
I chose this quote because this is what I think whenever I mess up. Your honesty will not go anywhere if you don’t mess up and don’t improve on that mistake. If you think significant inventions were just perfect right when they were made, you would be wrong; for example, when Steve Jobs was showing off the first iPhone on stage, he had to swipe in specific ways, lengths, and times or the entire phone would crash in front of the stage because they still had to fix significant issues before the iPhone was released to the public.
A) How did the use of AI assist you in developing this project
I was able to use AI to find some arguments for my side i was fighting for. By
B) How did you ensure that the work you created was still your own, rather than just a product of the AI
With the reference link that the AI found for my arguments I would read everything in the website to find supports for the argument.
C) Did you agree with the position you had to argue? Why or why not?
Yes, I do agree with my position because when you are fighting for a change against a person or institution who has great power, violence can send a better message than just sending a message. It can bring fear depending on what you do.
Core Competency Reflection
When I need to work collaboratively with people I don’t know, I explain what I need from them and ask what they need from me then continue the work I need to continue.
One of the ways I ensure my group is clear on the common purpose is to explain to everyone what our current task is and i try to make sure everyone is on task though out time.
The first step you can do is make your account private. When your account is private only people who follow you (that you chose who can follow you) can see your posts, likes, people you follow, and more. If your account is under the age of 16 your account will automatically be set to a private account but can always be disabled in Account Privacy settings.
If your account is private and you don’t want someone that follows you to not follow you anymore, you are able to remove them by going to your followers page then pressing remove on the right of the follower you want to remove. When you remove a follower, Instagram will not notify the user that they have been removed in your follower list.
These are some differences between a public account and a private account
Public

Your followers
Who can see your photos and videos on your profile or in feed?
Anyone on Instagram

Anyone on Instagram, unless you update your settings
Your followers, unless you update your settings
Who can download your reel?
Anyone on Instagram, unless you update your settings
No one
Who can remix your videos?
Anyone on Instagram, unless you update your settings
No one
Who can embed your photos and videos off Instagram?
Anyone on or off Instagram

Other things you can do to keep yourself safe is by only posting things that don’t show your face or not showing popular locations near you. Another thing to not do is say anything inappropriate or insulting things online as that can be found and could affect your future.
Only trust people with personnel information with people you know in real life, not people online. As well as that but try not to send anything personnel in general as it can be screenshot and be shared anywhere without you knowing.
Restrictions For Other Users
If someone if being rude to you on Instagram there are multiple ways that you can deal with it.
The first thing you can do is temporarily limit someone from commenting on your posts. You can limit the person for four weeks at a time, but can be extended for as long as you like. When you turn on a limit the following things will happen: 1) The user can still comment but their comment will be hidden unless you approve the message to be shown. 2) Any messages the person you limit sends to you will be hidden. 3) Comments made after the limit will remain hidden. 4) Once the time you set has ended, the person will be able to comment on your posts unless you restrict or block the user.
The second option you can do is restricting the user. When a user is restricted you wont receive anything about the user such as liking, replying, reposting, or quoting any of your posts. Any message they send in your comments will not be shown to anyone but you, you’ll be able to see the persons message without the person knowing that you looked at it, the user will not see what you like or comment, and the user will not be able to see when you are online. The user will not be notified when you restrict them.
The last option is blocking the user. When you block a user their likes and comments will be removed form any post you make (not that when unblocking the likes and comments will not return). The blocked user can still see your likes and commends that you make that were shared by public accounts or accounts they follow. You will not be able to message the user and the users inbox will not be shown and messages they send during being block will not be delivered to you even when you unblock them. If your and the blocked users Facebook account is linked with your/their Instagram account in Meta’s account center the blocked Instagram account will be block on Facebook as well.

Personal/Social Competency Reflection
I know that my digital footprint can have both positive and negative consequences, including insults I say, images I post, personnel information I share so I adjust my actions by not sending images that show who I am and make accounts private when I can.
Some of my preferred strategies for maintaining a healthy, balanced online presence include only talking to people I actually enjoy spending time with, and not saying anything or posting anything that can be inappropriate or insulting.
Some of the ways I work to build and maintain online relationships are by talking with the person frequently but not that it is excessive like saying good morning to the person or asking how their day is. Another thing I do is playing a game that we both enjoy playing.
I plan to have a fun-filled day with my dad. Our day would start with two rounds of Laser Tag. After the games, we will drive to the Go Karting arena where we will have two races. Later, we will go to my dad’s favorite restaurant, The Keg. There, my dad will order his favorite meal, the Steak and Prime Rib, while I will have a burger. After finishing the meals, we will end the day by watching a movie at the theatre.
How much did you end up spending on your special day?
I spent $293.27.
What percentage of the total budget did you end up spending?
I used %97.76 of the budget
What might you have done differently if you only had a budget of $100?
I would probably remove items that cost a lot and take a long time to travel to the destination such as the Go Karting that cost $107.37 for the grand total.
Another thing I would’ve done is decrease the amount of times we did an activity such as the laser tag bringing the price to $87.90 to $43.95.
What might you have done differently if you had a budget of $500?
Firstly, I would have bought some snacks like popcorn or drinks at the theatre for us.
I might have changed the plan for the day slightly, for example, by going skiing instead of go-karting.
Reflection: Answer the following Core Competency questions.
Why did you choose this specific person? Why do you believe they deserve to be celebrated?
I chose my dad because in the previous weekend that this post was created it was his birthday, so I thought it was a good idea to make this project related to something that had recently occurred.
Why did you choose to spend your budget the way you did? What factors went into your decisions?
I had spent the budget on activities that we had done before or that I knew he liked.
Hey there! This post is about how my life would be if it were in the form of fractions. It will have fractions that talk about what I do in an average day, and then I’ll try to dive into the subject even more. I hope you will enjoy it!
Just a side note these fractions will be in minutes not hours, it will show both the regular fraction and the simplified fraction.
Mornings
Normally I will wake up at 7:00 and be at school around 8:30 which in fractions that would be about 90/1440 (1/16). But what do I do to get ready, how long does it take? Well, lets dive into that.
when I wake up in the morning I first brush my teeth, and take my medication, which normally takes 5 minutes so that would be 5/90 (1/18) in a fraction form.
The next thing I do is make my breakfast and eat it which is 10 minutes of my time as the fraction of that would be 10/90 (1/9).
After that I make my lunch which usually take me 15 minutes that’s 15/90 (1/6) as a fraction.
I get my hair ready for school that takes about 8 minutes to get ready so that’s 8/90 (4/45) in a fraction.
The last thing I do is get my bag ready then wait for my parents to drive me to school which it usually till 8:00 so that’s about 22 minutes, 22/90 (11/45) as a fraction.
Then I get driven to school that takes about 30 minutes because I live at surrey (for this example) 30/90 (1/3) for the fraction.
School Hours
School starts at 9:00 AM and ends at 3:15 PM, that’s 6 hours that’s 360/1440 (1/4) as a fraction, but how long are the blocks, what do I do in each block?
Every Block is 72 minutes which is 72/360 (1/5) as a fraction
On Block 1 I have LEC to 9:00 – 10:12 Block 2 I have math 9 to 10:16 – 11:28
I have lunch next which is shorter than a normal block starting at 11:28 and ending at 12:13, that’s 45 minutes which is 45/360 (1/8) as a fraction
for block 3 I have social studies 9 between 12:13-1:25
Then this extra block for flex happens at 1:29 to 1:59
and my last block (block 4) is ICT9 for 2:03-3:15
After Hours
School ends at 3:15 PM and I go to sleep at 9:30 PM that’s 555/1440 (37/96) as a fraction. But we need to see what I do after school, so lets explore that.
After school I get picked up my my mother and drive to her home, or I walk to my dads home and the average time it takes to get to any of their homes is 30 minutes in a fraction that is 30/555 (2/37).
When I get home I take another 30 minutes to do whatever I want which it also 30/555 (2/37)
After my 30 minute break I do my homework, I plan my homework by doing my work for 1 hour 60/555 (4/37) as a fraction, then take a 10 minute break which is 10/555 (2/111) as a fraction. I repeat this until It is dinner (or when I’m done my work) and dinner is usually ready at 6:30, so I’ll spend around 2 hours and 15 minutes on work that’s 235/555 (47/111) when converted as a fraction.
When its dinner my family watches an episode of the Simpson’s while eating and the average length of an episode is 23 minutes, so I spend 23/555 eating dinner as a fraction.
after dinner I do dishes that take about 30 minutes so that’s again as a fraction 30/555 (2/37).
once the dishes are done I either continue my homework or if I’m done play with my friends online until its 8:00 so that’s about 37 minutes and as a fractions that’s 37/555 (1/15).
when the time hits 8:00 my mom wants to watch a movie with everyone so my family watches a movie that around 1 hour and 20 minutes, 80/555 (16/111) as a fraction.
after the movie its 10 minutes 1(0/555 (2/111) as a fraction) until I have to go to bed so at that time I get ready, then I go to sleep.
Sleeping
So, if i go to bed at 9:30PM and get up at 7:00AM I would get 9 hours and 30 minutes of sleep, in a fraction that would be 570/1440 (19/48)
