Q 3.2

Linguistic- verbal

Bodily kinesthetic

This are people who are blessed in movement such as dancing, sports and creating objects with their hands if they do the more they remember instead of listening and seeing(iie, 2016:73)

This can be used in technology in the field  of physiology.

They can use they skill in the marketing department where manufacturing is involved, whereby labour takes place.

INTERPERSONAL

This is the ability to understand feelings of other people and their intensions.they are also good in seeing at a different perspectives. (iie, 2016:73)

INTERNET OF THINGS


Q3 .1

This is the idea of linking up any device with an on and off switch to the internet. This contains everything from the cellphone, light bulbs, headphones and anything that has the on and off switch. Will be considered as the internet of things The internet of things basically connects. (anon,2016).

How the internet of thing will impact the future business it will allow companies to make smarter products, change the model of the business. Again business can have less stuff, logistic expense and electricity bills by controlling their physical asserts such as light switches, electrical gates. it can also impact the society by enabling the user to monitor, update and control his/her electronic devices online.it is also cost efficient because it encourages the user to to update his or her software devices not having to purchase the new electronic hardware.

How does the digital divide impact on social capital, and what are the ramifications thereof?


Q 1.2 Digital divide- it is the gulf between people who have more access to internet and those who don’t have it at all.(dictionary.com,2016).

Social capital-refers to network of connection between people who stay and work in a particular society to work effectively. (investopedia, 2016).

Digital divide can impact social capital because this days many people own very expensive phones they are able to access the internet very easily. Not forgetting that the are some who do not have the access to technology. Given the importance of being socially active online, it is clear that the digital divide will impact people being able to control their social capital, which can results in them being able to access data, information  and knowledge that could help them with furthering themselves economically.

RAPE-THE COLD HARD FACTS


Q 2.2 according to the chronicle of digital citizenship(2016) in solution fluency we need to” identity the problem find the solution , evaluate the process, and give the outcomes”

Defining                             

South Africa is being said to be the rape capital of the world by Interpol because rape and social abuse against women and children are well known incidents in south Africa women and children are being raped, this is a very big issue for south africa, the huge part of it is people do not report the cases they suffer silently.

Evaluate

Here we need to discover when the incident of rape started and what are the cause of it .women are the most victims and men are the perpetrators because men have more power than women and they take advantage of that. Mostly people who are victims are young girls who usually likes to wear tied clothes and mini dresses which are way to easy to undress .

Solution

This rape problem must be solved simply by making sure that all the rapist pay for what they committed. So that potential rapist must be aware that if they rape the will be price to pay, also they should be special talks at schools and communities on how they should prevent themselves from getting raped and the guidelines of what should be done if one got raped . Sustainable support groups for rape victims must be developed

Deliver

All the information must be delivered to the police forum.
