Social media and personalised learning is an important course that has helped to understand the ways to go about social media daily. One lesson that I learned through the course is agency; agency spiked an increased curiosity about what people post on their social media. Agency gives a person the ability and freedom to take action on social media. Sometimes, there is limited freedom in social media and education to take specific steps (Boyd, 2012). Reading through the lesson, there are best ways to ensure that people maintain an agency with interaction in the digital spaces. Freedom of expression is one thing that allows people to talk and give their opinion on social media (Del Giudice, 2014). Giving out views on social media does not involve bullying or harassment; it is essential to respect other people’s feelings while outlining the internet relationship.  

Safety and equity are another wow and wonder that I gained through the lesson. Equity means living with people with respect and understanding the challenges they face with respect. Using social media to judge others is something that any person should never consider (Jawed et al., 2019). It is essential to respect other people and understand their backgrounds on social media. Community codes help address the needs of minority groups to help avoid harassment. Minor groups tend to suffer from numerous problems on social media, which makes it essential to develop guidelines on the social media platforms to control people’s engagement (Del Giudice, 2014). Today, millions of people are dynamic on privacy, yet many individuals have no clue how to remain protected on social media. People straightforwardly share information and regularly utilise inadequately safeguarded passwords. Every year, many individuals are the casualty of web-based media accounts hacks, had individual data taken, or succumbed to online tricks (Boyd, 2012). Figuring out how to remain protected via online media is particularly significant with the expanding pervasiveness of coordinated instalment frameworks and applications, telephone checks, and contact innovation. 

Another significant wow and wonder that was in the study is digital privacy. Digital privacy is an important guideline that protects our safety and security. Digital security ensures data privacy for the people who are using the internet. Digital security ensures that people have a safe place to give their opinions while learning from what is posted. When people talk about digital protection, they refer to the connection with the internet (Boyd, 2012; Privacy and Surveillance Quiz, n.d). It is important to understand that the internet and privacy should come in handy when learning from social media. 

The internet can be hazardous, and social media is no exemption. Investing in some opportunity to safeguard your information and utilise the security devices given by the application to control how and where you share information is simply the most effective way to protect the web. People ought to likewise invest in some opportunity to occasionally survey the social media accounts, change passwords, and audit any applications or modules that approach your record so that you can keep up with long-term security. The internet can be somewhat protected since they are conscious of dangers and find ways to moderate them.

Digital privacy makes me feel wow and wonder. In fact, digital privacy is very common in our lives, we seem to use it every day, but it seems that we do not pay attention to its importance and security. When we use the Internet or log into a social media platform, digital privacy can protect the information of the network or account we use. It is not difficult to find that we need to set our own digital password to log in to almost any app in our life. These digital passwords are to achieve the greatest degree of privacy protection. Just like the equality mentioned in my last wow he wonder #2, there are internet pros who can use their internet knowledge to get your digital password. Therefore, people try to change their digital passwords regularly when using the Internet to ensure the security of their accounts.

Another thing i feel i wow and wonder is the safety and equality of the web. Cybersecurity is paramount, and it is about our identities and privacy. Therefore, people should pay attention to network information security. Many people are exposed to scams and harassment due to their lack of security on the Internet and their information being leaked.
I feel that cyber equity is part of cyber security. The relationship between them cannot be separated. We all know that information asymmetry will bring a lot of injustice to people’s lives. Therefore, network equality is to allow everyone who uses the network to receive the same information, instead of stealing or obtaining other people’s information through the computer knowledge they have learned like hackers.
