Checkpoints:

1. The Aborigines were the first settlers on the Australien continent, they came from the Asian mainland and the islands north of the Australien continent.

2. The reason why the Aboriginal population was halved quite soon after the European arrivel was because the Europeans brought unknown diseases,  such as small pox.

3. It is believed that more than 100 000 Aboriginal children were taken away from their homes for more than 100 years.

Viewpoints:

1. I think Mr. Howard and Mr. Keating refused to make an official apology because they were embarrased over it and did not wan't to "take the blame" for something the ones before them did.

2. The Sami people in Norway have experienced domething similar. The "Norwegians" tried to Norwegianize the Sami people.
The Appartheid is also a good example.

CHECKPOINT

"THE NEW INDIA"

Another problem for an industrilizing country is ensuring there are enough skilled and educated workers. Education is, therefor, a key element in building the new India. It is difficult, however, to give evetyone a good schooling when so little money is invested in public education. Schools have far too few teachers and classes are poorly organized.
People with the money to spare will send their children to private schools. Another problem is that highlyeducated people will tend to take their skills out of India, choosing to take better paid jobs abroad.

"INDA-WORLD's LEADING NATION"

The vast majority (70%) of India's population still lives in rural areas. The contrast between the lives of the poor and those of India's new middle and upper classes is striking. If this gap
is to be bridged, India will have to undergo crucial social changes. The launch of India's first unmanned spacecraft in October 2008 shows that India has all it takes to be one of the world's leading nations, both techincally and economically. 

The imitation game

If I could ask Alan Turing 5 questions after the end of the war,
I would like to ask him:

- Why did you not help people when you knew they was going to die without your help?

- How did you come up with the idea of the computer Christopher?

- How is it to be gay in a country that do not like gay people?

- Why did you take the computer home wih you?

- What did you write to Winston Churchill?

Digital Skills & Knowledge

In this text, I will consider how digital skills and education belong together. We are humans that can learn new things until the day we die, therefor are digitals skills used very much since it is very easy to learn.

My education path started with 7 years at elementary school. Then it was 3 years at secondary school. Between secondary school and high school, I got a job at “Revetal Gamle Stasjon”. Now I am a freshman at high school and after three years at high school, I am planning on a year at folk high school. I think I will travel the world after the year at folk high school before I start my studies at becoming an acute nurse, teacher at folk high school or maybe a tour guide for longer trips including tenting.

If I decide to become a nurse, teacher or guide I will need some digital skills. A nurse need to know how read of all the machines to know how the patients are and get results from tests back as fast as possible.
The teacher’s job is more and more about the technology, at least at high school. Every teacher brings the pc with them, and if the students are lucky, it will be a kahoot. If it is an assignment the students is most likely to hand it in via the internet.
A tour guide do not need so much digital skill I believe. You need to know how to use a phone, and plan tours. It is more the knowledge of how to use a map and compass that is important.

To get the skills and knowledge I need, I have to read, observe, learn and remember it all. Especially a nurse need to have a lot of knowledge, all the diseases, read of the results of tests and digital skills is very important to be sure the patient is still alive.

So tum sum it up, digital skills and education goes hand in hand. Every education there is you need knowledge and digital skills. We have come to that point where everything should be digital, very many lives of just filming their self and putting it online. It is great for them, but it shows us how far the internet has come.
