I found this resource very helpful and quite comprehensive. I especially liked the Cyberbullying acronym G.E.T R.I.D. I think this concept would make a great poster to hang on the wall of my classroom when I am a teacher. It passes the C.R.A.P test (Gold, 2010) as it is current being copyrighted from 2006-2016 so I would assume it is updated quite regularly and relevant for the topic. It is reliable because it is supported by the Australian government, Murdoch children's research institute and the Royal Children's hospital in Melbourne among others. The media collaborator is the ABC and it has won quite a few awards. There are no advertisements so I do not think there is any agenda and the information is not really biased in any way, it is quite factual and informative rather than opinionated. One negative that I found was that there are a few statistics mentioned but no reference to what study these statistic come from, making me wonder how reliable they really are. All in all a brilliant resource for understanding the concept of digital citizenship and cyberbullying. Thank you for posting it!

I agree, this website is great. I've found it really helpful in my research and it passes the CRAP test :)

I totally agree with previous comments, this has been very helpful for me as I research information on digital citizenship ;)

Task 3 ideas

Thanks Jenni, just going to have a look through this one :)

some great authentic projects that technology could be integrated into as cognitive tools. For example: video or PowerPoint presentations documenting the building process and reporting on concepts learnt or blogging for reflecting and articulating the processes and concepts used to create the end products.

There are links to some great resources in this article :)

Thank you for sharing this, it has been a great read and also full of useful information : )

There are many advantages to using the iPod Touch in the classroom, and no more so than when teaching Language Arts. These Apple iPod Touch apps would be great additions to any English classroom, and best of all, they are free!

""There's this prevailing voice in education is that we need to keep testing kids and fix education with big data. But I think you see a mindset in the film that's more about engaging and inspiring kids. And if there's anything I'm passionate about it's that if we just engage and inspire our kids, they'll do great things.""
