Testimony of the Book of Mormon

The article I read online was "Leave It Alone" H. Burke Peterson.
I watched all of the netsmarts videos. Although I had seen something very similar to this video before, the video that tracked Teresa was very impressive and hit home. A person can track anyone in a few minutes and find out a lot of very important information about them even if they do not post it in their information.

I also watched the cartoon by BYU students about internet safety.

The most important take-always I have from this reading and watching adventures was how different parents are from children now, and it can be very easy for parents to try to take control of their children's internet life, and it not work. If parents do not go about helping their children in their internet decisions with the utmost discretion and consideration, it can be very easy to hurt and even lose vital relationships with family. I already knew of the dangers and had seen many videos very similar if not the same about the young girls who ran away with or were kidnapped by a person they met online. I had thought that of course the parents should be involved, but I hadn't thought of the dangers of control and forcing. There is so much positive involvement that parents can do to help their children to make positive choices.

I shared the video about finding information about teresa, as well as discussed how the parents control hurt her family from the video of the students at Chatham High.My friend was shocked. My friend already knew that chat rooms need to be avoided and that you should not give personal information out online. I wasn't surprised that they were surprised because I was initially surprised (as ridicules as that sentence sounds, I am writing it). I think my friend was reconsider how they are going to deal with internet safety with their family.

Week 10-- Video Response

Multi Media presentation- Brown Bear, Brown Bear

Children are fearless and can pick up computer skills very fast. Story extension on the computer can be very successful and it is easy to send home to show the parents and to keep a copy of it. The goal is participation uses prior knowledge and communicated verbally and they have to think about what they are going to draw.

I love spiders:

Showing videos need to be relative and age appropriate and have audio and visual information. The class disposable cameras and then scanned the pictures- this accomplished equipment operation "spidercam."

internet communication- internet collaboration with another class and created a website. Authentic context is needed and communication for learning- sent pictures to missouri.

Habitats

This shows efficientl access world wide web information for research. Ethics issues- respect copy right issues. use the website, and encyclopedia pictures so they don't have to worry about infringing on copy rights. Use of multimedia to present creatively- then family and friends gather to watch prepared presentation with narration- multimedia presentation software. This helps teach students learn gain awareness of computers in society.

week 9----... ....

My initial observation of the technology in my classroom was very deep- there is a voice box for the teacher and a microphone for students to use for class participation so that the whole class can hear who is speaking. There are computers used daily in class, a projector used daily, and also a Mimio pad- or similar to a smart board but better. There is a lot of technology in the classroom. All parts of this weeks assignment were completed
