•Copyright - a legal device that gives the creator of a literary, artistic, musical, or other creative work the sole right to publish and sell that work.
Copyright owners have the right to control the reproduction of their work, including the right to receive payment for that reproduction. An author may
grant or sell those rights to others, including publishers or recording companies. Violation of a copyright is called infringement.
•Plagiarism - an act or instance of using or closely imitating the language and thoughts of another author without authorization; the representation
of that author's work as one's own, as by not crediting the original author.
•Cyber Bullying - bullying that takes place online, or using electronic technology such as cell phones, computers, and tablets over communication
tools including social media sites, text messages, chat, and websites. Examples of cyber bullying: text messages or emails composed to insult or
demean; rumors or false statements spread by email or posted on social networking sites; and humiliating photos, videos, websites, or fake profiles
deliberately shared across social media.
•Computer addiction - the excessive use of computers to the extent that it interferes with daily life. This excessive use may for example interfere
with work or sleep, result in problems with social interaction, or affect mood, relationships, and thought processes.
•Digital divide - an economic inequality between groups in terms of access to, use of, or knowledge of ICT. The divide within countries (such as the
digital divide in the United States) can refer to inequalities between individuals, households, businesses, and geographic areas at different
socioeconomic (and other demographic) levels. The Global digital divide designates countries as the units of analysis, and examines the divide
between developing and developed countries on an international scale.
