Safe, Legal and Ethical Use of Digital Information of Technology
Safe, Legal and
ethical use of digital information of technology is knowing to be careful of
the information that is given and available on the internet. Use the internet safely, know what other
people should be available to see and read.
There are also content on the internet that is not legal and knowing
that should help people stay away from the websites that if looked at can
affect your job. Ethical use of digital
information is determining which information on the internet is actually true
and right instead of someone’s opinion.
Teaching students to be safe on the internet is important because not
everyone that sees their posts are people that they want to meet and talk to in
real life. The students should know that
they should not post where they live to strangers. Students need to know the importance of what
sites they go on may be monitored and not be legal. Students that have reports to do need to sort
out the websites that are giving inaccurate information from the websites that
have accurate and updated information.
Digital Etiquette and Responsible social interactions
Digital etiquette and responsible
social interactions is being aware of what you are writing or posting on social
networks. Digital etiquette is knowing
the right kind of pictures that should be posted on the internet that best
represents you and what you want people to comment on. You also have to take responsibility on what
you do on social networks, you need to know that what you write and post is
being seen by everyone. It is important
to talk to students about this issue because many teens are writing hurtful and
damaging comments on social networks and they need to know that what they do
has consequences. It is also important
to be aware of the websites that are being shown to the students and the
content that is being show to them either with the ads or comments.
Meeting Diverse Needs of Learners through Learner-Centered
Strategies and equitable access
It is important to meet the needs
of all the different learning styles and students in the classroom. The use of the internet can help meet the
different learning styles in the classroom.
Students that learn through visual can really benefit from watching
videos on the internet about the content material to help them understand the
material in a different way. A teacher
can search the internet for a video, poem, dance or game that is on the content
material that the students are learning that can help students that are a
visual, auditory, body kinesthetic learner.
Global Awareness and Digital-Age Communication
The internet can help students be
connected with people from around the world and learn about the new cultures
around the world. Technology has given
us the ability to communicate with someone around the world. Someone from a different country can be
reading this blog and give a comment on in from a different time zone. Technology like this can give students to
have pen pals from students from a different state or country and have
immediate feedback within minutes. Technology
opens the door for many opportunities for the students to learn about many
things through the internet.
