** 1. **** What IT tools (software, hardware, websites, podcasts…) have been used in this crisis. Give specific examples. ** ** 2. **** What is the impact of such use on the society. I.e. discuss social and ethical issues (positive and negative). Think of the images that were distributed, think of the Google people finder, think about the simulation that were done regarding the nuclear issue….etc ** ** 3. **** Research the Haiti earthquake crisis and compare how ICT was used there as well. ** ** 4. **** Find 3 to 4 interesting articles related to the Haiti crisis. Read them and highlight important point that we can discuss in our next lesson. **
