Digital Communication has an impact on your future digital footprint because people are able to look into your past messages and judge you by them. This results to your future because people will judge you when filling applications for jobs. If they find out you troll or do inappropriate things they will conclude that you aren't able to handle the job, mess around a lot, or cause disturbances.
Everything that is posted on the web is viewable by the world. Everything said using digital communication is also accessible by the world. So be careful in what you say.
You need to be careful because if you are not it might harm you, both physically and emotionally.
You're friend might find out what you said about them or someone can gain your personal information and end up visiting you intending to harm you.

The Plan.
So far, the team has made great effort on planning what to do. Many ideas have been brainstormed on whether we could do this or that, but we want it to be perfect as it can be. Perfectness is our goal, in other words no one is perfect, but we would like to be the ones that out stand before anyone else. I am no good with a computer my skills are useless, as my partner is good at what she does in the computer. Today we plan on getting the right idea on what to do. We are planning to do what is going to be done.

Troll has joined the chatroom.
Admin: Aren't you that annoying Anonymous from a year ago? Aha, did you come back for more punishment?
Troll: Yeah, I'm the dude. Hey man. I'm sorry what I did alright? I was just messing around. I was living up to my name.

Troll: Aha, yeah. And thanks man.
The Troll realized after talking to the Admin that he was actually a pretty cool guy and he ended up becoming his best friend. He also realized that he felt better about himself being a good person instead of the troll he was meant to be. He was happy.

Create Reflection.
The create stage was the hardest for me. It took a lot of time and patience to create flipbook. After finding out that doing the project as one animation I quickly changed my mind after trying. So, I re-planned. I created a slide for each little part, like a book most likely. I had to create a script to help with the progress. I also had to figure out how to work the site I was working with. After creating all the 3 designs I finally chose which one I wanted to use.
Plan Reflection.
The plan stage was a bit more easier after reading the actual instructions. After deciding to do a flipbook, I had to create a plan on how I wanted it to look like. I also had to be very specific which took a lot of time and thinking to figure out how I wanted it. The Gant chart helped with this process. I also had to create 3 designs which ended up helping me choose my final design.
My rating for this project is a 5/6.
Investigation:
The investigation stage was quite difficult for me at first. The problem we had to solve is explaining to a 6th grader what the design cycle is all about by creating a presentation. The presentation I decided to do was a flipbook. After deciding what I wanted to do for the project I investigated more what the design cycle is. This way I could have a better understanding of it. But at first, I thought this stage was different so the teacher and i didn't understand each other. After having a small talk I realized I had done something wrong so I re-did it and fixed my situation. 6/6

Evaluate:
The evaluate stage was fairly simple for me. Just make a survey for with questions for the 6th graders will answer. After all of this I think I should get a 5/6. So about a 94 or 95.

Create.
As Leon the little Lion slept he was dreaming of his magical cookie jar filled with cookies that never had a limited. No matter how many cookies Leon ate, when he opened the cookie jar it would be full once again.
But when Leon woke up a few hours later, his most valuable prized possession was gone. He panicked and looked everywhere for it, but it was no where to be found.
So Leon did the only thing he could do.. he began to cry. Each each passing second his cries were increasing in volume. Because he knew that each second that passed, the hope of finding his cookie jar decreased and he couldn't be able to do anything about it since he couldn't think of any other place where it may be.
While walking home, Fluffeh heard someone crying loudly, "Whaaaaaaaaa." "Woah, what the-?" was all he could say before spotting a crying lion. It seemed as if ever cry got louder by the second.
"Whaaaaaa, whaaaaa, whaaaaaa," cried Leon the Lion.
So Fluffeh floated towards the lion and asked, "Hello Little Lion, why is it that such a wonderful creature as yourself is caused to weep so sadly?"
"Oh hello Mr.Cloud, I weep because something with great value to me has been misplaced and I have a fear that someone took this prized possession from me.." the Lion explained. "It was a red cookie jar of magic."
"Poor Lion, this sounds like a problem to me. It saddens me to see you like this, so I will help you on your quest find your cookie jar."
After hearing the great news Leon's eyes grew bright with joy, he was so happy. "THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU!"
Seeing the lion smile like that spread a smile across the Cloud's face as well. "My name is Fluffy-kins by the way, call me Fluffeh. And you are?"
"Leon the Lion, but don't say the whole thing. Just call me Leon." answered Leon.
"Well Leon, have you heard of the Design Cycle?"
"No, I have not. Can you please explain it to me then?"
"It's a process of steps a person takes in order find solutions and pick out the best one to solve a problem."
"Wow! Do you think we will be able to use the Design Order to find a solution towards my own problem?!"
"YEAAAH!"
"Let's do it then!"
"Okay, first things first. We need to investigate. By doing so we need to identify the problem, develop the design brief, and formulate a design specification."
"Radical! And then?"
"The we plan. By doing so we need to design a product or solution then plan a product or solution."
"Next?"
"Next we create. By doing so need to use appropriate techniques and equipment, follow the plan, then create the product or solution."
"Is that all?"
"Nopee. Last but not least, we need to evaluate. By doing so we need to evaluate the product or solution then evaluate the use of the design cycle."
"Ahahaha. Wanna know what I realized if I don't remember the process? We can use the quote I don't poop cookies everyday. Well then.. What are we waiting for then? Let's go get my cookie jar!"
"Ahahahahah. Yeah! Let's do this!"
"We caught him!"
"We have a new problem.. Why did he do it?"
The End?
