Internet Safety Continued

Doing:
I asked my 18 yr. old brother about what he knew about internet safety. He said,"Just don't be stupid on the internet. Put up blocks and filters, don't go to bad sites. Don't talk to people you don't know or add people you don't know to facebook and things like that. Just throw away junkmail and don't believe everything you read." After that we talked about internet safety with regards to stalkers and meeting people you talk to on the internet. We discussed things that the general authorities have said including how the internet itself isn't good or bad. It can be used for good or bad and it is our responsibility to use it for good.


The two best ideas that you learned about integrating technology from my peers’ presentations:
- Technology is a good place to brainstorm. After the teacher worked through the powerpoint the students brainstormed ideas and she wrote them right into her powerpoint. This was good for the kids to see their ideas mattered as well as organizing them in a good way.
-Giving examples. One of my peers did a presentation about clouds. She made a powerpoint that showed many different pictures of clouds. This is good because the kids need to actually see what they look like. It was a place where they could see many accurate examples quickly.
