The difference between plagiarism and copyright is that copyright you can't copy anything that the author has wrote. But plagiarism is when no one can copy what the author has written word for word. Fair use is when public people can use some of the copyrighted work without the permission form the author. In an educational purpose, I could use this if I am using an internet or encyclopedia as a source for a research paper. Creative Commons supplements existing law because you still can't copy everything the author has written but you can still use what they have said. I can use Creative Commons in personal life for needing information or checking correct information and several other peoples opinions. I could use it in academic life to help prove a point in school or help me on a research paper or project.

The relationship between the "digital" me and the "face to face" me is that they are completely different. In the "digital"me, when I type, the person reading cannot tell my expressions and tone of voice in what I'm saying. In the "face to face" me, people can see my expressions and hear my tone of voice so no one misunderstands me.

The activity that I chose was basketball. Basketball is a team game played with atleast 10 players on a team for two rotations of players. This game is played with 5 players on the court at one time and they play defense and offense. The objective of the game is to score that basketball into the basket and prevent the opposing team from scoring by playing defense. I'm involved in this sport because in third grade I used to play basketball with my friends at recess and I began to like it. So in fourth grade I played on a rec team and then from 5th grade to 8th grade I played on a Hopkinton travel team. Now, in highschool, I play on the freshman basketball team. Participating in this sport might say about me that I am athletic and I like to play sports.

I could use iPhoto and iMovie in my personal life if I wanted to make a movie of my friends or if I took pictures on my camera, I could upload them onto iPhoto and view all of them at once. I could use iPhoto and iMovie in my academic life if I was assigned a project in a class, I could use iPhoto to upload some images and iMovie to create a visual aspect.
