Social Computing Key Questions:
1. What are the main skills needed to use social software?
I have full realization of the necessary of English because most cases written in English. Add to this, to find proper information which exactly people need, we should input words effectively.
2. What are the affordances (what the software makes possible, what it impedes)?
We can use dictionary or encyclopedia in PC. Using those information help us get wider and deeper information. We can share them in network.
3. How can the technology be used to network professionally and connect users to learning resources?
Using some network as we use in SC class, attending chat room, we can know specific information.
4. What learned skills and understandings may promote your development as an effective learner in the digital age?
To use a lot of effective sites quickly, it is very useful to make tab keys for research.

Barabasi Questions pp. 25-35
1. What is the principle of six degrees of separation? What number of social links does any one person need to be connected to global society? p. 30
Six degrees of separation is way of dividing everybody on this planet into six other people. There are six billion nodes in the world but people need only six links from each.
2. How is the fabric of society today different from pre-internet society? p. 31
The net works behind society and the online universe were fundamentally different(31).
People can move quickly in the web thanks of search engine but before this, people had to click a lot of times to search something.
3. How many more links separate any pair of web pages compared to people in society? What can explain the difference? p. 34
Nineteen degrees may appear to be. But there is slight difference between six and nineteen because the internet network had much larger number of routers.
4. So far, what ranges of separation have network scientists discovered in different kinds of networks? p. 34
Scientists in different fields of science are separated by four to six coauthorship links.
5. What does research suggest about the fundamentals of networks? p.34-35
Networks require only one link per node to form a giant cluster and the number of links is small in the network.
6. What is your estimate of your personal number of connections to society? What connections are your strongest?
Lesson 3 Think, Explore, Explain
Think
What arrangements do you have to make now to be able to work on whatever you want to wherever you are? (SCICU e-Portfolio)
I need enough time and environment for using PC and I should have some clues along what I will do.
Explore
View a couple of these screenshot tours 1 2 3 4 showing how different users have developed a personal work environment in Firefox (FF). Most users have provided details on what extensions or tweaks they've made to develop their browser as a personal work environment. Take notes on some of the features that look interesting. (SCICU e-Portfolio)
Using impressive page design is so attractive. Showing links helps us understand what the user like or interested in. Font size should be enough and easy to read. Colorful design makes reader want to read.
Explain
Write a post reflecting on Firefox (especially the add-on you have learned to use) with reference to the four Key Questions. (SCICU e-Portfolio)
Social Computing Key Questions:
1. What are the main skills needed to use social software?
Computing skills(for example; typing, copy and paste, double click, scroll, and so on ), some English skills to read warning or attention sentence.
2. What are the affordances (what the software makes possible, what it impedes)?
To help official work effective and quick, to arrange materials better, to research quickly and get a lot of or exact information.
3. How can the technology be used to network professionally and connect users to learning resources?
If people who are some of professional show and share the latest technology or theory using network on computer, other people can use them for their work resources and improve them.
4. What learned skills and understandings may promote your development as an effective learner in the digital age?
We can do our task quickly and systematically to use digital tools effectivelly.

What arrangements do you have to make now to be able to work on whatever you want to wherever you are? (SCICU e-Portfolio)
First, I need environment for using internet (PC, line, etc). Then I need usable e-mail address to register e-Portfolio. After registered, I have to log in before I work on something in SCICU e-Portfolio.

What main benefits/disadvantages do you see (if you see any) in the design of an e-portfolio compared to a traditional resume? (SCICU e-Portfolio)
Most beneficial design of e-Portfolio is tab system. E-Portfolio user can move web to web immediately as he or she wants. From now, any disadvantage design of e-Portfolio does not come to my mind.
Social Computing Key Questions:
1. What are the main skills needed to use social software?
The user needs the skills for typing, using mouse, reading and understanding literacy.
2. What are the affordances (what the software makes possible, what it impedes)?
Making diagrams, drafts, creating something or managing a lot of information.
3. How can the technology be used to network professionally and connect users to learning resources?
The connect user can gain amount of general or special information because network technology can reserve and reveal huge information as the connect user wants.
4. What learned skills and understandings may promote your development as an effective learner in the digital age?
To know both risk and benefit of going digital and to know the skills depend on various uses accurately.

Barabasi homework
Barabasi: The First LinkMonday 9/17Read and annotate. Answer these questions in full sentences. Type. Bring a digial copy to class (i.e. email it to yourself, or save to USB drive).
1. What elements or factors were critical to Paul's success in spreading the Christian message?He used first knowledge of the social network of the first century civilized world from Rome to Jerusalem to reach and convert as many people as he could. He choose the place in which the faith could spread effectively and walked 10.000 mikes for 12 years. (4)
2. Barabasi asks the question, "Could it happen again?" (p.4), what is your answer?No, it could not. The gap of information of the people has become large and it is difficult to spread something equally today.
3. What new kinds of maps have been made of our interconnectivity (p.5)? What kinds of interconnectivity would you like to see mapped?Map of the Internet, map of companies, map of interactions, map of genes have been made.
I want to see the map of human relationship because it is sometimes ambiguous.
4. What is the 'real surprise' (p.5) that such maps have revealed? Personally, does this surprise you?Real surprise is maps are indistinguishable from real things.
When I saw sketched incest in the picture book, I was really surprised at it.
5. How does the author define the nature of most scientific research in the 20th Century? What is the problem associated with such an approach (p.6-7)?Once we understand the parts, it will be easy to grasp the whole but although we found the part of something, we run into the hard wall of complexity because nature is not a well-designed puzzle with only one way to put it back together. (6)
6. What does Barabasi predict will be the new focus of scientific research in the coming era (p.7)? What is your view?
Network will dominate the new century to a much greater degree than most people are yet ready to acknowledge.(7)
I afraid I cannot understand well around this part…
