I thought everyone's presentations on Digital Citizenship were great! I also found a lot of great information as I was researching for my own presentation. I feel like my high school doesn't teach us enough about copyright, netiquette, and safety online as they probably should. I think we probably spend about 1o mins in a faculty meeting about those topics together. I can't imagine how many copyright laws are broken throughout the year in my school.
I thought Richard and Clayton had a very creative presentation as their powerpoint resembled the facebook layout. Not to mention that many of the suggestions they gave were very helpful, and as facebook has become the next "high school" myspace (why couldn't we leave it to college students!) it's important as teachers to be careful of what is visible, especially to our students. I have issues with that, but that will be kept for another time.
Anyways, I thought everyone did a great job, and I feel like I have a better understanding of what to be careful with.
Project update: My projects are due Wednesday! My students have been working hard and I'm excited to see the finished products. I've been taking pictures, so I will post soon!

You're right. I think these presentations would have been beneficial not only for parents but also for teachers! I learned so much through my own research and watching the presentations; I can only imagine what some older teachers would learn!! :)
ReplyDeleteAs for your ideas on what teachers should have on their Facebooks... just wait til you get to my blog entry for the week! ha ha
I just want to say that I'm glad I'm not the ONLY person in the world who wishes Facebook wouldn't have sold out and was still college people ONLY!!!! Haha!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad your project is almost due, though. I am excited to see the pictures!
