  1. I feel that the internet is not as reliable as I thought it is before this PBL excercise.I think that although internet is more fast,easy and efficient,we should not always depend on the internet as internet may sometimes display the wrong information.Sometimes the internet may even display things that are being edited so I think the internet is not so reliable as it seems to the people using internet.

  2. I feel that the Internet is not reliable only some of the websites like some infromation websites(www.wikipedia.com/ www.dictionary.com).
    These are some unreliable websites like( www.blogspot.com/www.facebook.com/www.hatebook.com/ and others)
    I think that we should be more careful and aware of some websites which won't cause any harm to yourselves.
    Any way, even people use internet to edit the images of popular people like; Britney Spears, Rihanna and others in magazines, newspaper, which would be post on the internet, which could let some of the people think that some of the celebrtities are skinnies, but more of them are actually fatter than them.

  3. Many pictures are supposed to be real but in reality most pictures that look nice is altered then posted on the internet printed on the magazines and many other sources. We should be careful doing projects. Ensure that the information is correct before using them as part of the project work.Video can also be altered for example,re-arranging or modifying segments the video to form another piece of video.Sometimes the internet is a reliable source if the internet is use in a bad way people will get false information,thus causing more trouble for the society.We could influence the public about the topic media literacy so people know no to trust the information on easily.By hongliang

  4. I feel that the internet isn't as innocent as we believe and whatever is written there might not be reliable.Even some of the more trustable website like wikipedia and google might content fake information,that is provided if we really want to pay close attention to what is stated.The next one that most often content false information is blogger and other "self-descriptive" web pages as those people who published stuff on them can chose to give fake information. As a conclusion, we should not wholesomely trust and therefore believe whatever is stated on the internet,no matter how trustable that site is.By Sam Wee Leong

  5. After going through the PBL exercise, i feel that internet is not the best reliable resources. Even websites like wikepedia, google, yahoo and many reliable websites might be also not saying the truth. In some of the blog, some people do not use there real identity for their accounts. So as internet is not trustworthy enough, everybody should not believe all the articles and words in any websites. -Lee Min Young

  6. I think that the internet is not as reliable as I think it is.Many people trust what they see or read in the internet even though it is not true.So we should not always trust the internet.

  7. After going through the PBL exercise,i feel that internet resources are not also as reliable as i used to think.We cannot trust what we see on the internet and no website are totally true including google,yahoo,wikipedia, wikianswers and live search.
    We can never know if the person in a show,in a video or even a photograph on the internet is tall,short,fat, skinny or average because with the advanced technonology, any person size on the internet can be changed.In the Internet,there are always conman cheating other people money or trying to take advantage of other.
    So in conclusion,internet is not really reliable and is very dangerous

  8. I feel a bit insurcured sometime,to trust or not to trust the internet sources. I sometimes get confused wheather I should trust or not to trust the internet information. But I can know that somethings are definetly false cause I learnt them in class. I think that there are people outside that would be cheated as they do not know about hese things. Those people who cheat the others,would cheat more and more people and it would not end until someone chtches them,which is very diffcult. So,when using the internet,one must very careful not to get into such traps,if not,you might just lose monay just like that.

  9. I now know that telling the real from the fake is not as easy as I thought. Some editors are so good that they hardly leave any mistakes behind. We should correct our thinking that the internet is always right and be more cautious on the Net. There are people who cheat others for money, some even just for fun! We should really consider whether or not to buy things from the net, as you must give the MONEY first, before they give you the product, whereas in other trades, you can get the product once you give the money. I really hope to be a professional at differentiating real from the false images.

  11. I think that after going through the pbl lesson on the internet, the internet to me is not so reliable as before. Before the programme, I had always thought that the internet was always reliable and always correct, no matter what others say. But then after the programme,i can now differenciate reliable and unreliable info on the internet.

  12. I think that Internet is not reliable because most of the details given are fake as people could change the facts on Internet. Internet is the faster way to find our resources but now we find out that the details are fake, we need to look for the resources ourselves, which needs alot of hardwork.I also heard that other websites are dangerous and unture so we cannot always rely on Internet...

  13. After going through the PBL exercise,i feel that some website is not reliable as i think before although most of us find our information there. Some of the examples are "wikipedia.com" as people can edit the information, "facebook.com" as people can fake their identity. I also learnt that some people cheat others to buy their products ont the internet. They will ask people to pay first before they sent the product to their house. After they paid by cards(master card and etc), they knew they were being cheated when they never received the products they paid. In conclusion, we should not trust everything on the internet.

  14. In my own point of view, we often rely on certain websites when we surf the internet and because of that, anything that is stated there would be regarded as TRUE! i realise that a way to believe what is written on the internet must be supported with evidence...

  16. After going through the PBL exercise,I realize that the internet is not so reliable after all .Before going through the PBL exercise,I had always believed what people put on the internet will always be real and not fake.Some websites such as wikipedia,the information on that website can be edited by other people.People lie about certain things on the internet because of money or just simply just for fun.

  18. After going through the PBL lesson, i think that the Internet is reliable but it also has its own disadvantages like for example, fake information, edited pictures and fake identities. Let say for example online shop owner sometimes post edit pictures of their products to make it attractive to buyers.From this PBL lesson i learn to be more careful and not to be influence in what i see or read in the Internet.Not only that but i must also check other websites to double check on the information.

  21. I learnt that internet cannot be trusted that easily.Everything from the internet can be edited to catch people's attention to go to their website.We cannot treust everything on the net as we do not know who is behind those information given on the net,therefore,it is not safe to believe everything on the net that we do not know who is behind.

  22. I learnt that the pictures that you found on internet or magazines could edit through photoshop.The reasons why people edit the pictures in magazines is because they do this to attract buyers to buy their mazagines or to make the stars in the mazagines more beautiful and more popular so that they would believe in their products. The information found on the interent also can be fake so you need to be careful while surfing the internet.
    You also should be careful of leaking out your personal information to friends that you know through internet even if you and your friends is very close or they told you their personal information because they could maybe fake out the information.In conclusion,i would like to say that be careful of internet , friends in internet and magazines because some of them are FAKE

  27. I learnt that pictures from the internet could be edited through photo shop. The picture may seem real but actually it is fake. People do this to attract buyers thus, we should be careful and not believe everything we see on the internet.

  28. I feel that the Internet is not as reliable as we think it might be before we had the lesson. I'll be alert and not trust everything I see on the Internet now. I used to think that almost everything on the Internet was reliable sources, but I realised that I was wrong. We should use ways to check out if the information is true or not first, before making any assumptions.

  30. I used to think the unternet was always right and i also always looked at wi,kipedia foer help. then after the lesson in ML, i had completly different views. i then stoped using wilkipedia as i was no longer sure about it. the lesson also taught me that i can't be to relaint on the internet as we cannot tell for sure that the person we are chatting online with is a safe person that we know. I also felt that many peoplen use that internet in many ways that it should no0t be used.
