Example:
This week’s topics were broad dealing with areas of privacy and the nature of capitalism. In class
we spent time discussing the meaning of privacy and how it is protected and exploited in
different contexts such as by the government and in the workplace. One of the parts of the inclass discussion that was most memorable for me was the focus on social media and specifically
providing personal information to Facebook. Since arriving in Australia, I have learnt about
Facebook, started my own account, have uploaded digital photographs, and posted statuses about
my recent activities. However, the interesting part for me has been the extent that friends of mine
from Saudi Arabia, other international students, trust or do not trust, Facebook.
I have noticed that although I use Facebook regularly and I have upload some personal
information, other students from Saudi use the platform quite differently. For example, I believe
that there are five different ways that my friends use Facebook. Firstly, there are students who
not concerned at all about their privacy. These people use their real or similar names and pictures
and have no problem with posting up embarrassing photos and impolite language. The next
group may use a fake name and post up limited photos and information to protect their privacy.
Another group does the same but controls the settings on their Facebook and only adds friends

who they are completely sure. The fourth group uses only information which is completely
unidentifiable, and the fifth group does not use Facebook at all. Privacy is a central concern for
these students. However, it is interesting how different students take a more or less cautious
approach to Facebook because of the risk of people knowing who they are or using their personal
information against them.
Another one of the topics in class discussed was the use of surveillance devices such as CCTV
and how this is affecting privacy. The students had different opinions about where surveillance
cameras should be allowed to be placed and where they should be illegal. I was shocked to hear
that some nightclubs in Perth have security cameras in the bathrooms. For me, I think
surveillance can offer advantages such as providing evidence and helping people to feel safe but
I think there is a risk that the recording will be used for the wrong purpose.
The slides for the week focused on the nature of capitalism. We looked at the differences
between capitalism and socialism/communism. A lot of the lecture was related to the advantages
of capitalism such as the effect of the invisible hand of the market and providing incentives for
people to work, and respective disadvantages such as oligopolies being formed that can set prices
and operate monopolies and so on. One part of the lecture that I knew about before was the
different approaches that religions take to lending money. For example, in Islam it is forbidden to
charge interest when lending money. However, I have heard that Christianity and Judaism
encourage the payment of interest to encourage diligence.
