Safety+Lesson+Plan+Kathy

Lesson Plan //Goal:// To make students aware of internet safety protocols for social websites. //Technology used//: Laptop computer, email accounts, wiki, digital cameras, You Tube. //How will the technology be used?//This is an introductory activity. As the laptops are new to our district and social websites are relatively new, it is assumed that not all students and parents will be familiar with social website safety. This activity is to reassure parents and establish a common knowledge base for all as to what is expected for social website interactions. Students will make a social website safety video to place onto YouTube. Students will use their wiki accounts to work on the storyboards. By creating a simple video on website safety, students will demonstrate a knowledge of social web safety precautions as well as demonstrating mastery of the technologies used. //Implementation Strategy// 1.  Students will set up wiki accounts at http://pbwiki.com/education.wiki (Tom Escott: http://bcejan08pls.wikispaces.com/Tom%27s+Lesson+on+Cyber+Safety). This is an excellent site for a first trial as it may be marked private. Allowing students, parents and administration time to adjust to new technology. 2.  Students will return social internet safety acknowledgment form. 3.  Students will research one article per person on social internet safety focusing on high school and secondary education. Each team will be expected to come up with 2 web references that other groups do not have. As all dates and times are recorded, first come first served.

Students working in small lab table groups will work on their storyboards via their wikis. Class time will be allotted for the initial setup and introductory work, after that, the project will be assigned as homework. This will hopefully force the students to use the wiki. 5.  Each student lab table group will produce a final video from their storyboards and upon administrative approval, will post their video to YouTube. 6.  After all videos are posted, we will vote on our favorite. 7.  Students will as a group select one of their four articles to summarize and comment as to the appropriateness of consequences. Each student group must respond all of the other groups ( //this will not exceed 5 responses due to lab table size)// //Evaluation// 1.  Students will be evaluated on their completion of each section of the project. This will be comprised of a.   Setting up a wiki account b.  Finding and summarizing one article. c.  Selection of one of the four articles and commenting on wiki posts of others d.  Selection of two additional web references. e.  Completion of video //Estimated time for completion// 2 weeks total. One class period to explain project and hand out acknowledgment form, one class period for introductory and organizational work, and one class period to view and select favorite video.
