Automobile Design

• It takes about 3 years to design, the phase or stage they start out with is the sketch.
• The design is called problem solving because they have to come up with a good look and have to make it work like is it safe
•  The feasibility stage is the largest part it takes to design a car.
• I think designing an automobile or other type of vehicle would interest me because I like cars and I would like to make one (design)

Automobile Body Styles and Designs

The body styles I like the best are:

1. Hatchback- is a car with a sloping back and a hinged rear door that opens upwards

     










     

           2. SUV- An SUV, or Sports Utility Vehicle, is similar to an estate, but usually bigger and higher off the ground. SUVs are often offered with four-wheel-drive and are designed for both on- and off-road use
           

          3. Coupe-  Coupes are often the sporty variants of saloon cars, with doors reduced from 4 to 2. However, the coupe body style varies from carmaker to carmaker, and now there are even four-door coupes like the Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class.


        4. Convertible-  A convertible, or cabriolet, is a body style with a foldable or retractable roof. Such cars often have canvas or vinyl roofs, though nowadays these are also made of plastic, aluminium or steel. Convertibles are usually two-door cars. An example of such a car is the BMW Z4.



     5. Pickup (trucks)- A pickup is a light motor vehicle with an open rear cargo area known as a ‘bed'. These are extremely popular in the US, and feature factory-built integrated beds. The term also applies to coupe utility vehicles, where they are based on a car chassis or a dedicated platform. Pickups are called ‘utes' in Australia and New Zealand. They are often available with two or four doors for the passenger

Careers and in the Automotive Industry

1. Some of the high-tech systems on auto mobiles today that were unheard of 30 years ago are nation’s fleet of vehicles: stability and traction control systems, adaptive cruise control and variable valve timing, just to name a few.
2. Young people should have skills  for a career as an automotive technician is young persons with math, science, communications and technical skills. 
3. Some advantages in obtaining an education as an automotive technicians versus other high-tech educational options are   many high-tech careers that require four, six, or even eight years of college, automotive technology careers can begin after just two years of education.
4.  Many new jobs and at what percentage of growth do they forecast will occur in the automotive technician field up to 2020 are expected to add 237,500 new jobs and have a 30 percent growth rate through 2020.
5. The one thing that the automotive technician career is fairly "immune" to that has threatened other careers is And with the outsourcing of jobs picking up steam – first manufacturing jobs, now computer programming, customer call-center work, and accounting services all going overseas – it should be comforting to know that automotive service and repair is fairly immune to such moves.
6.  Four other positions that an automotive technician can do in the automotive industry are There is work in parts, parts distribution and wholesaling; collision repair, painting, and damage estimating; vehicle maintenance, repair, and performance upgrades; and motorsports.
7. The automotive technician role sometimes called "the portal career because In fact, so many people have started their careers in the automotive after market as an auto technician that it is viewed as something of a portal career.

Video

• Some aspects of being an automotive technician that I think I would enjoy is working on cars 
• One or two things I fount interesting about this video is watching the lads working on the cars and finding new parts i didnt know was on a car.
• Automotive technician requires life-long learning because technology keeps changing like its not gonna be the same 10 years from now. think are some characteristics and skills someone should possess when considering a career as an automotive technician? 
• I think are some characteristics and skills someone should possess when considering a career as an automotive technician because you need to know whats wrong with a car and know how to fix it.

Careers and  in the Automotive Industry

NAFEF- is to improve the quality of automotive technician training programs nationwide at secondary and post-secondary, public and proprietary schools

Jobs in the Automotive Industry."

I would enjoy doing Classic car restorer because i like the older cars and  think they  are better then the new ones today  

I wouldn't  like to do Automotive journalist because I don't really like writing.

Tech for the Sake of Tech?

1. No i don't think that this generation would feel the same because a lot of people cant go a day without a phone.
2. I think that this help's people stay away from dangers but you still have to pay  attention on the road.
3. The importance of technology in a brand new car are very important because you have to know what  you are buying and how the technology works. 
4. one new feature i would look for is having a phone built into the car for your not distracted from the road.
5. One thing they might of thought in the older cars that were  was seat belts or air bags maybe.

Technologies in Development

• Which one do you think is less likely to happen? I think flying cars are the less likely to happen because you wouldn't need flying cars because there are planes.
• The one i think will have the most impacted on society is Autonomous car ( car drive by then self) it can help people that cant drive good or any one who is not able to drive.
• Out of the six of them, which is likely to be the first technology used in automobiles?) I think the safety features 
•  I think this technology can help keep the driver and passengers safe because it tells you if you are in to much stress to be driving.
• My thoughts on this technology is is that flying cars look cool but i dont think people would want to use it and   I think  the benefits and the disadvantages of having an automobile that can travel by land and air are the benefits are that if you wanna get some place fast you can fly instead of driving and the disadvantages are that i think it would take up to much room on the roads.
• I stand that i like driving i wouldn't want self driving cars yet maybe when i get older i would

Automobile Timeline

1908 Model T introduced

1. Henry Ford begins making the Model T. First-year production is 10,660 cars. 

• That point is important because back then 10 660 cars was a lot because people didn't have a lot of money back then.

1926 First power steering system

1. Francis Wright Davis uses a Pierce-Arrow to introduce the first power steering system. It works by integrating the steering linkage with a hydraulics system

• I think this point is important because it makes the car streer better for you cant urn around turns better

1931 First modern independent front suspension system

1. Mercedes-Benz introduces the first modern independent front suspension system, giving cars a smoother ride and better handling. By making each front wheel virtually independent of the other though attached to a single axle, independent front suspension minimizes the transfer of road shock from one wheel to the other.

• I think this is important because its a easy way to control the car by just turning the 2 front wheels it will make it alot easier turn around turns.

1966

Electronic fuel injection system developed An electronic fuel injection system is developed in Britain. Fuel injection delivers carefully controlled fuel and air to the cylinders to keep a car’s engine running at its most efficient. I think this is important because it makes the car start easier in the winter because with carburettor you have to pump it to pump the gad through the motor but corroborator is easier to work on.

My video Selections

The inventions of the Auto mobile 

• They used steam engine 
• Henry ford was the first to bring the auto mobile to public
• Its the most important invention ever made 

 The Ford Edsel

• This car was named after Henry Fords only son Edsel
• Some people think the car looked ugly and some think it looked funny
• Had a toilet seat grill

Part Two of Four - Henry Ford and the Model T

 1. The assembly line changed by having the line move and not the workers.
2. They stayed longer because they were paid a more livable wage.
3. The first model T ford cost a little over $1000.
4. It dropped to $365 because probably not a lot of people would have a lot of money.
5. It offered people transportation.

Part One of Four - Carl Benz

1. Auto mobiles been around for 120 years.
2. Patent is a government authority or license conferring a right or title for a set period, especially the sole right to exclude others from making, using, or selling an invention.
3.  In January of 1886 for his invention, the title did he use to describe the auto mobile is the vehicle with gas engine the birth of the auto mobile.
4. The family drives his invention in August of 1888 the first petro station was born.
5.  He so called "axial pivot steering system" the steering the 2 front wheels its still used today
6. The new name when the two auto mobile companies are merged is Mercedes Benz.
7. Benz experience as a pioneer in technology that many pioneers never experience Benz Lived to see his dream come true.

BBT 10: How Computers Work

 

• Central Processing Unit (CPU) or Processor- its job is to carry out commands, Whenever you press a key, click the mouse, or start an application, you're sending instructions to the CPU. Two common/popular companies that manufacture this part are Intel and dell. we got this information from http://www.ranker.com/list/the-best-cpu-manufacturers/computer-hardware and http://www.gcflearnfree.org/computerbasics/7.2 .

• Motherboard or Mainboard- is the computers main circuit board.It's a thin plate that holds the CPU, memory, connectors for the hard drive and optical drives, expansion cards to control the video and audio, and connections to your computer's ports (such as USB ports).  Two popular companies that manufacture this part are dell and acer inc.  we got this information from  http://www.ranker.com/list/the-best-cpu-manufacturers/computer-hardware and http://www.gcflearnfree.org/computerbasics/7.2 

• Power Supply Unit- The power supply unit in a computer converts the power from the wall outlet to the type of power needed by the computer. It sends power through cables to the motherboard and other components. Two popular companies that manufacture this part are dell and acer inc.  we got this information from  http://www.ranker.com/list/the-best-cpu-manufacturers/computer-hardware and http://www.gcflearnfree.org/computerbasics/7.2 .

• Random Access Memory (RAM)- RAM is your system's short-term memory. Whenever your computer performs calculations, it temporarily stores the data in the RAM until it is needed. Two common/popular companies that manufacture this part are Acer inc and Nvidia. we got this information from  http://www.ranker.com/list/the-best-cpu-manufacturers/computer-hardware. and http://www.gcflearnfree.org/computerbasics/7.2 .

• Hard Drive-The hard drive on your computer is where the software is installed, and it's also where your documents and other files are stored. The hard drive is long-term storage, which means the data is still saved even if you turn the computer off or unplug it. Two common/popular companies that manufacture this part are AMD and IMB .http://www.ranker.com/list/the-best-cpu-manufacturers/computer-hardware  and            http://www.gcflearnfree.org/computerbasics/7.2

• Video Card- The video card is responsible for what you see on the monitor. Most computers have a GPU (graphics processing unit) built into the motherboard instead of having a separate video card. If you like playing graphics-intensive games, you can add a faster video card to one of theexpansion slots to get better performance.  Two common/popular companies that manufacture this part are AMD and IMB .http://www.ranker.com/list/the-best-cpu-manufacturers/computer-hardware  and             http://www.gcflearnfree.org/computerbasics/7.2

• Sound Card- The sound card, also called an audio card, is responsible for what you hear in the speakers or headphones. Most motherboards have integrated sound, but you can upgrade to a dedicated sound card for higher-quality sound. Two common/popular companies that manufacture this part are dell and IMB .http://www.ranker.com/list/the-best-cpu-manufacturers/computer-hardware  and             http://www.gcflearnfree.org/computerbasics/7.2

• Network Card- The network card allows your computer to communicate over a network and access the Internet. It can either connect with an Ethernet cable or through a wireless connection (often called Wi-Fi). Many motherboards have built-in network connections, and a network card can also be added to an expansion slot. Two common/popular companies that manufacture this part are AMD and Sun .http://www.ranker.com/list/the-best-cpu-manufacturers/computer-hardware  and             http://www.gcflearnfree.org/computerbasics/7.2

BBT 10: Digital Literacy

Journal Entry #8: Digital Law

• What I found most surprising about this unit was how careful you should be on the internet, always keep everything private.

• The information that I found difficult to locate was two actions that can violate someone's privacy.

•  It is a very good resource, it gives all the information that you need.

• Same with this website. It is a very good resource, it gives all the information that you need.

• They biggest issue is we rely on the internet too much and we tend to copy and paste other peoples information instead of our own.

• The biggest issue for cyber-bullying is that teens will do anything to bring someone down on the internet, and they do not know how to ignore it.

Assignment #2: CyberBullying (and Privacy)

1. Non-Consensual Distribution of an Intimate Image: if someone has a sexual/intimate picture/video of you that was created in private circumstances, and that person knowingly posts it online or shares it with someone else knowing that you would not consent to that (or being reckless about whether you would consent to it), the person could be charged.

Voyeurism: secretly observing or recording a person who reasonably believes his/her actions are private and:

• who is in a place where the person might be expected to change or remove clothing (e.g. bedroom, bathroom, change room, cabin, tent);
• who is all or partially naked or engaged in sexual activity at the time; or
• where the recording is done for sexual reasons.

   2. Acts that Make Others Feel Unsafe

• Harassment: doing or saying something that makes someone else scared for themselves or someone else (e.g. making threats, stalking, repeatedly texting/emailing, constantly following).

      Unwanted or Illegal Sexual Contact

• Invitation to Sexual Touching: encouraging a person under 16 to touch themselves or someone else for a sexual purpose (whether in person or online). It includes indirect touching (with an object, for example). When both people are close enough in age AND have lawfully consented, charges may not be laid.

     3.Police

      Cybertip.ca

      Options Other than Reporting

      4. You should always include your age. You should always also say if it is you in the picture or          not. You should also let them know if you sent the picture or video to someone so it  does not cause trouble. To deal with peers you should never message back to a mean  message. You could also delete the bully from your social networks.

     5. What I found interesting about "Don't Let Others Write Your Story" is that everything               they said was helpful, like sticking up for yourself.

      6. One way I could help promote the #changeyourstory is if they have a Facebook page            I could share it.

Assignment #1: Copyright and Copy-wrong

 1.The Copyright Act provides that it is not an infringement of copyright to deal with a work for the purposes of research, private study, criticism, review, news reporting, education, satire, and parody, provided the dealing is “fair.” 

2.up to 10 per cent.

3. Copying or communicating that exceeds the limits in these Fair Dealing Guidelines may be referred to a supervisor or other person designated by the educational institution for evaluation. An evaluation of whether the proposed copying or communication is permitted under fair dealing will be made based on all relevant circumstances.

4.Any fee charged by the educational institution for communicating or copying a short excerpt from a copyright protected work must be intended to cover only the costs of the institution, including overhead costs.

5. A teacher can copy (or take any other necessary action) in order to display a work protected by copyright. This permits the use of whiteboards and similar tools, overhead projection using a device such as an LCD screen, overhead, opaque, or slide projector, provided the work is used for the purpose of education and training and is not already commercially available in a medium that is appropriate for this purpose. 

6. Educational institutions may not make a large-print book for a student with a perceptual disability without permission from the copyright owner.

7. Yes, you can play sound recordings and turn on televisions and radios in the classroom, subject to all of the following conditions: • it must take place on the premises of an educational institution; • it must be for educational or training purposes; • it must not be for profit; • it must take place before an audience consisting primarily of students of the educational institution, persons acting under its authority, or any person who is directly responsible for setting a curriculum for the educational institution; and • it must not involve a “motive of gain.“

8. No. Copying an entire musical score that is not in a copyrightprotected work containing other musical scores is not permitted. Permission must be obtained. Normally, the music publisher can provide permission. Sometimes the right to copy music is given when music is purchased. The music books or sheets will have a notice stating that copying is permitted. In this case, music can be copied without the copyright owner’s permission in accordance with the terms of the notice. Fair dealing permits limited educational dealings with musical scores. First, copying an entire single musical score from a copyrightprotected work containing other musical scores is permitted. Second, up to 10 per cent of a musical work can be copied under fair dealing.The Copyright Act permits educational institutions to perform music, whether recorded or live, without payment or permission from the owner of the copyright. A person acting under the authority of a non-profit educational institution can: • perform a musical work live if the performance is primarily by students of the educational institution; • play sound recordings containing a musical work; and • play radio and television programs containing a musical work while the program is being transmitted (over-the-air broadcast, cable, satellite, or over the Internet). The following conditions apply. The performance must: • take place on the premises of an educational institution; • be for educational or training purposes; • not be for profit; and • take place before an audience consisting primarily of students of the educational institution, persons acting under its authority, or any person who is directly responsible for setting a curriculum for the educational institution. The Copyright Act permits the public performance of music in schools when it is “in furtherance of an educational object.” Performances that are not in furtherance of an educational object must be authorized by the copyright owner, or by a collective that represents the owner.

9. SOCAN and Re:Sound can provide licences to schools and school boards across Canada

10. Did the music use occur during school hours? • Will the student be graded on the activity involving the music use? • Does the music use involve a demonstration by a student or teacher for other students, teachers, assessors, or parents? • Is it reasonable to consider the music use to be for educational purposes? The phrase “educational purposes” is not defined in the Copyright Act but can be described as an activity that is planned and where the objective is for students to meet one or more subject or program outcomes. • Was the music used on school premises? • If admission was controlled, was it free? • Was the music use for a non-profit purpose?

11. The Copyright Act contains a users’ right permitting anyone, not just students and teachers, to use copyright-protected works to create new works. This users’ right is referred to in the Copyright Act as “non-commercial user-generated content.” This users’ right can be found in section 29.21 of the Copyright Act as amended by the Copyright Modernization Act. The following conditions apply to the creation of non-commercial user-generated content: 1. It can only be used for non-commercial purposes. 2. The original source must be mentioned, if it is reasonable to do so. 3. The original work used to generate the content must have been acquired legally. 4. The resulting user-generated content does not have a “substantial adverse effect” on the market for the original work.

12. The Copyright Act permits showing an audiovisual work such as a DVD or video as long as the work is not an infringing copy or the person responsible for the showing has no reasonable grounds to believe it is an infringing copy. Teachers can show audiovisual works purchased or rented from a retail store, a copy borrowed from the library, a copy borrowed from a friend, and a YouTube video.

13.No. Teachers cannot copy an audiovisual work at home and then show it in the classroom. Teachers can, however, show a legally obtained copy in the classroom. A legally obtained copy includes a copy purchased or rented from a retail store, a copy borrowed from the library, a copy borrowed from a friend, and a YouTube video.

14. Owners of legal copies of computer programs may make a single reproduction of these programs in only two situations: 1. An owner of a legitimate copy of a computer program may make one backup copy of that program. The person must be able to prove that the backup copy is erased as soon as he or she ceases to be the owner of the copy of the computer program from which the backup was made. 2. An owner of a legitimate copy of a computer program may also make a single copy of that program by adapting, modifying, or converting the computer program or translating it into another computer language, provided that: (i) the reproduction is essential for the compatibility of the program with a particular computer; (ii) the reproduction is solely for the person’s own use; and (iii) the copy is erased when the person ceases to be the owner of the copy of the program from which the copy was made.

15.  Yes. Educational institutions, teachers, and students may save, download, and share publicly available Internet materials, as well as use that material in the classroom and communicate it to students or others within their education circle. “Publicly available” materials are those posted on-line by content creators and copyright owners without any technological protection measures, such as a password, encryption system, or similar technology intended to limit access or distribution, and without a clearly visible notice prohibiting educational use. Routine classroom uses may be made of publicly available Internet materials, such as incorporating on-line text or images into homework assignments, performing music or plays on-line for peers, exchanging materials with teachers or peers, or reposting a work on a restricted-access course Web site. To encourage copyright awareness and respect in all circumstances, students and educators are required to cite the source of the Internet materials they use.

16. No. A digital lock is a technological protection measure (such as encryption or a password) that restricts the ability of users of digital content from sharing or copying the content. The Copyright Act prohibits breaking a digital lock even for educational uses that are otherwise permitted by the Copyright Act. For example, the encryption on most commercial DVDs, or the serial-key validation required by many software programs, protects these DVDs and software programs from unauthorized use. These protections cannot be broken even if the purpose of the use is otherwise allowed. I do not feel that this is very safe.
