Quarter 1 in ICT: What I Learned and How I Improved

-

        As I look back on my first quarter in ICT, I realize how much I have learned and how important technology is in our daily lives.

       One of the biggest lessons I gained was the history of the internet. I found it interesting to know how it all started with ARPANET and how it grew into the internet we use today. I learned about the people who contributed, like Ray Tomlinson who made email, Vinton Cerf and Robert Kahn who created TCP/IP, and Tim Berners-Lee who invented the World Wide Web. Learning about them made me appreciate how the internet is more than just social media—it’s a product of years of hard work and innovation.

      I also discovered more about internet access like Wi-Fi, broadband, and mobile data, which made me understand how we connect to the online world. I became more familiar with internet browsers such as Google Chrome and Firefox, and how search engines like Google help us find information. Another fun part was exploring blogs, where people can share ideas, experiences, and stories online.

      But this quarter was not always easy. Some challenges I faced were memorizing dates and names, understanding some technical terms, and even dealing with slow internet connection at times. These problems sometimes made it harder for me to finish my tasks.

     To overcome these challenges, I tried to review my notes regularly, searched for simple explanations online, and asked my classmates for help. I also learned to be patient and manage my time better whenever the internet connection was slow.

     As I move forward to the next quarter, I want to become more responsible in using technology. I will continue to practice my ICT skills, focus on understanding lessons better, and use the internet more for learning rather than just entertainment. I believe that ICT is not only a subject in school, but also a skill I will need in the future.

    Overall, my first quarter in ICT has been full of discoveries and realizations. It challenged me, but it also helped me grow. I’m excited to learn more in the next quarters and continue my journey in the digital world.

Keeping The Environment Clean Is Our Responsibility

 "A clean environment is not a gift - it's a responsibility." This quote reminds me of the importance of taking care of the Earth. As students, we are not only learning inside the classroom but also outside, where we can apply what we learn through action. This quarter, I participated in community that focused on protecting the environment. Through these experiences, I learned valuable lessons about responsibility, teamwork, and how even small actions can make big change. "Small actions, when multiplied by many, can change the world." September is recognized as National Clean-Up Month by virtue of Proclamation No. 244, and every year, World Clean and Green Week is observed from September 17 to 23. These campaigns remind us of our responsibility to care for the environment, reduce pollution, and prevent disasters caused by neglect or harmful human activities. As a student, I took part in simple but meaningful actions that contribute to a cleaner and safer commun...

Pieces of Who I Am

          Writing about myself has always been one of the hardest things for me to do, because sometimes I feel like I don't fully know who I am yet. There are moments when I think I understand myself, but when I try to put it into words, it becomes confusing. Still, I believe this kind of writing is important because it helps me explore my thoughts and feelings. I may not have everything figured it out yet, but I am learning more about myself every day. Through this essay , I hope to share with who I really am - the things I enjoy, what inspires me, and the person I hope to become someday.              I am Maria Lourdes Franz Cabot. My name was given in honor of Saint Maria Lourdes,  who was also born on the same day I was. My family and friends often call me Frances, but I personally prefer to be called Maria. I was born on February 11, 2010, and raised in Buguig, Bantay Ilocos Sur. I see myself as a friendly perso...

Chasing Mountains and Memories: My Unforgettable Journey to Bantay

  Last weekend, I traveled from Buquig, Bantay to Tayac, a place known for its mountain views and peaceful scenery. Three of my friends live there, while one lives nearby, and I was the one coming from the farthest area. The place is surrounded by tall hills and trees, giving it a calm and refreshing atmosphere - a perfect spot to unwind. It was our long-awaited meet-up, and we were all excited to finally spend a fun day together in nature. At first, there were supposed to be seven of us, but there is a conflict from the schedule, so it became 10am. When I arrived, one of my friends was already waiting for me outside. After my brother left, I climbed onto a motorcycle, which was quite difficult because the seat was very high, it felt like a challenge to even get on! Since there were already two of us on the motorbike, we decided to fetch first the other who also knew how to drive. That way, we could use two motorcycles and travel comfortably together. The ride was full of laughte...
