INTERNET OF THINGS
a.) In your own words, define Internet of Things.
Based on my understanding, I would say that the Internet of Things is an interconnected web of ideas, concepts, objects, and more, put into devices that would interact with each other to receive and provide data. It is a database where in devices are connected with each other to communicate.
b.) What brought this theory about?
This theory is about the connection of devices that would use its data or ideas to share with one another. These devices give and take data or information via a local network. It means that almost anything can be connected with anything. 
c.) Do you like the concept of IoT? Why or why not?
I do fancy the concept of IoT. Imagine a place where we can share almost anything we have. From simple devices, to modern-day computers, the possibilities are limitless, and there is almost no boundary for sharing information.
d.) In what situations do you encounter IoT in the Philippines?
One example would be the use of apps in our smartphones that give service. For instance, Grab, Uber, Waze, Foodpanda, and more. Another would be the use of smartphones and personal computers to share and gather information.
e.) How do you think IoT will evolve and affect Filipino society in the next 3 to 5 years? 
Due to the limitless progression of technology, and due to the an boundless ways of sharing information, I think, without a doubt, that IoT will evolve and improve the connection in the Filipino society. With the maximum potential of IoT, we would further progress as a society. 
f.)What do you think is the relationship/ cause and effect of IoT in media and information literacy?
As media being one of the primary sources of information and as the progenitor of information literact, IoT assists to the more effective way of sharing and acquiring information or data. IoT becomes a platform that allows data to be receive almost instantaneously, and since information is power, we are powerful.

Given the available media that we now have in the world, what are its roles and functions in a democratic society?             In the available media we have today, it serves as the source of information, thoughts, feelings, and emotions of not just one individual, but many. It functions as a database for users like me to share my opinions, knowledge, and more. Since today were are in a democratic society, it also serves as the voice of the oppressed, unlike before when we were experiencing a fascist regime where the press is controlled and we do not have the freedom of expression. Today media gives us this freedom of expression, and with this freedom, we can move forward, not as a nation, but as race of human beings. In what way does media affect your life (personal, professional, academic, social, others)?        Media today is so important that almost everyone is dependent on it. On a personal basis, I learn new things from media and things like opinions, news, idea
