TECHNOLOGIES
INTERNET THREATS
1. Malware – stands for malicious software

A. Virus – a malicious program to replicate itself

and transfer from one computer to another either
through the Internet and local networks or data
storage like flash drives and CDs.
B. Worm – A malicious program that transfers from
one computer to another by any type of means. Often, it
uses a computer network to spread itself. Example, the
ILOVEYOU worm (Love Bug Worm) created by a
Filipino.
C. Trojan – a malicious program that is disguised as a
useful program but once downloaded or installed,
leaves your PC unprotected and allows hackers to get
your information.
*Rogue Security Software
D. Spyware – A program that runs in the background
without you knowing it (thus called “spy”). It has the
ability to monitor what you are currently doing and
typing through keylogging.
*Keyloggers
E. Adware – a program designed to send you
advertisements, mostly as pop-ups.
2. SPAM – unwanted email mostly forms
bots or advertisers/ It can be used to send
malware.
3. Phishing – Its goal is to acquire sensitive
personal information like passwords and
credit cards details.

parents or grandparents to
see it?
Would you want your
future boss to see it?
 COPYRIGHT INFRIGEMENT
1. Understand – Copyright protects literary works,
photographs, paintings, drawings, films, music (and
lyrics), choreography, and sculptures, but it generally
does NOT protect underlying ideas and facts. This
means that you can express something using your
own words, but you should give credit to the source.
 COPYRIGHT INFRIGEMENT

2. Be responsible – Even if a material does not say

that it is copyrighted, it is not a valid defense against
copyright. Be responsible enough to know if
something has a copyright.
 COPYRIGHT INFRIGEMENT

3. Be creative – ask yourself whether what you are

making is something that came from you or
something made from somebody else’s creatively. It
is important to add your own creative genius in
everything that will be credited to you.
 COPYRIGHT INFRIGEMENT
4. Know the law – There are some limitations to copyright
laws. For instance in the Philippines, copyrights only last a
lifetime (of the author) plus 50 years. There are also provisions
for “fair use” which means that an intellectual property may be
used without a consent as long as it is used in commentaries,
criticisms, search engines, parodies, new reports, research,
library archiving, teaching, and education.

HOW DO WE CREATE DOCUMENTS?
LESSON DISCUSSION

Microsoft Word is a word processing application

developed by Microsoft Corporation. It lets you create
documents for your assignments, term paper, research work,
letter, and certificates.
It provides several features like copying and pasting
from different sources, inserting objects, lay outing of content,
and proofreading of documents.
 WHAT IS MS WORD?

documents, letters, reports, etc., MS
word is a word processor developed by
Microsoft.
 It has advanced features which allow
you to format and edit your files and
documents in the best possible way.
USE IN MS WORD

 MAIL MERGE AND LABEL GENERATION

One of the important reasons is using

computers per se is its ability to do recurring tasks
automatically.
But this ability has to be honed by learning
the characteristics and features of the software you
use with your computer.
 MAIL MERGE AND LABEL GENERATION

Mail Merge – as the name suggests, this feature

allows you to create documents and combine or
merge them with another document or data file. It is
commonly used when sending out advertising
materials to various recipients.
 TWO COMPONENTS OF MAIL MERGE

I. Form Document – It is generally the document

that contains the main body of the message we
want to convey or send.
The main body of the message is the
part of the form document that remains the same no
matter whom you send it to from your list.
 Also included in the form document is what
we call place holder, also referred to as data fields
or merge fields. This marks the position on your
form document where individual data or information
will be inserted.
The place holders are denoted or marked by
the text with double-headed arrow (<<>>).
 TWO COMPONENTS OF MAIL MERGE
II. List or Data file – This is where the individual
information or data that needs to be plugged in (merged)
to the form document is placed and maintained.
One of the best things about the mail merge
feature is that it allows data file to be created from
within the MS word itself, or it gets data from a file
created in MS Excel or other formats.
LABEL GENERATION

Included in the mail merge

feature on Microsoft Word is
the Label Generator.

It just makes sense that after you print out your form
letters, you will need to send it to individual recipients in an
envelope with matching address printed directly on the
envelope or on a mailing label to stick on.
LABEL GENERATION

In generating labels two essential components are

present: the form document and data file

INTEGRATING IMAGES AND EXTERNAL MATERIALS

A better understanding of the physical form of your

document as well as the different materials you integrate in
it would allow you to be more efficient and versatile in using
Microsoft Word.
And with it, you can create more efficient and richer
document not only in the content but also in physical form.
KINDS OF MATERIALS
KINDS OF MATERIALS

1. Pictures
a. .JPG – pronounced as “jay-peg”, and is the short from
for .jpeg or Joint Photographic Expert Group. It identifies the
kind of data compression process that it uses to make it more
cpmpatible and portable through the internet. It can support
16.7 million colors.
It does not support transparencey and relatively small
in file size.
KINDS OF MATERIALS
1. Pictures
b. .GIF – This stands for Graphics Interchange Format.
This type of image file is capable of displaying
transparencies. It is capable of displaying simple animation.
This can only support up to 256 colors so it is good mostly on
logos and art decors with very limited, and generally solid
colors.

1. Pictures
c. .PNG – pronounced as “ping”. It stands for Portable
Network Graphics. Its development was basically for purpose
of transporting images on the Internet at faster rates.
It can display up to 16 million colors. It is also good in
transparencies but does not support animation.
KINDS OF MATERIALS

II. Clip Art

This is generally a .GIF type; line art
drawings or images used as generic representation for
ideas and objects that you might want to integrate in
your document.
KINDS OF MATERIALS

III. Shapes
These are printable objects or
materials that you can integrate in your
document to enhance its appearance or to
allow you to have some tools to use for
composing and representing ideas or
messages. Used for layouting poster and
other graphic material for advertising.
 KINDS OF MATERIALS

IV. Smart Art

Generally, these are predefined sets of different shapes grouped
together to form ideas that are organizational or structural in nature. It is
used for organization, process, relationships, or flow for infographic documents.
 KINDS OF MATERIALS

V. Chart
Another type of
materials that you can integrate in
your Word document that allows
you to represent data
characteristics and trends. Useful
for preparing reports that correlate
present data in a graphical manner.
 KINDS OF MATERIALS

VI. Screenshot
Sometimes, creating
reports or manuals for training or
procedures will require the
integration of a more realistic
image of what you are discussing on
your report or manual. Nothing can
get you more realistic image. Shortcut:
PrtSc Button then paste to word/paint
Window Key + PrtSc (saved to pictures in
screenshots)
 IMAGE PLACEMENT

Inserting an image or any other material in your

document is quite easy especially if the material
already exists in your local storage device. It is just a
matter of opening up the image file through the
Microsoft Word dialog box or wizard. Sometimes, if
the image you would like to insert is on a web page
currently displayed on your screen, it could be copied
and pasted. The real challenge is where to put the
image you inserted or where to move it.
IMAGE PLACEMENT

1.In Line with Text – This is the default setting for images
that are inserted or integrated in your document. It treats your
image like a text font with the bottom side totally aligned with
the text line.

2.Square – This setting allows the image you inserted to be

placed anywhere within the paragraph with the text going
around the image in a square pattern like a frame.
IMAGE PLACEMENT

3. Tight – This is almost the same as the Square setting, but

here the text “hugs” or conforms to the general shape of the
image.

4. Through – This setting allows the text on your document to

flow even tighter, taking the contours and shape of the
image. Again, this can be the best used with .GIF or .PNG type
of image.
IMAGE PLACEMENT

5. Top and Bottom – This setting pushes the texts away

vertically to the top and the bottom of the image so that the
image occupies a whole text line on its own as in the example.

6. Behind the Text – This allows your image to be dragged and

placed anywhere on your document but with all the texts
floating in front of it. It effectively makes your image look like a
background.
 IMAGE PLACEMENT

7. In Front of Text – As it suggests, this setting allows your

image to be placed on top of the text as if your image
was dropped right on it.
