    Digital Citizenship lessons for students and teachers

    I love this link, Mekca! As I'm beginning to think about introducing social media into my classroom, the idea of teaching digital media keeps popping up. I know it needs to be taught, but I don't know where to begin! This would be a great place to start. I see that it is mainly for teacher usage, but it's a great place to start and get ideas. A lot could be implemented from the material presented. I plan to use this to plan my digital literacy lessons, thank you!

    Thanks, Mekca! We spend very little time teaching Digital Citzenship. I think it needs to be embedded in every teacher's curriculum. There are so many "teachable" moments that present themselves that could be linked to proper social media usage. This is going to be an excellent resource for me to share with my fellow educators.

    This is an excellent source for me to use in my Teen Insights classroom. We started with a unit on bullying... then cyberbullying... I think we're missing the point- students just need to learn to be good digital citizens! I will use this source to build my curriculum. I appreciate that the curriculum is geared towards students but that it gives teachers and parents good background as well. Parents are a huge part of cyberbullying problems. Much of the conflict we have in school has to do with something students do online at home and then carry those hard feelings with them to school. I do not have resources similar to these. The video that my curriculum used to show warned students to avoid chat rooms and to only choose names that gave no indication of their age, gender, or location. It's good for students to stay safe, but the world has become much more familiar and personal with technology. Our curriculum needs to adapt to keep up.

    A current list of useful technologies, by Dr. Rafael Scapin, Coordinator of Educational Technology at Dawson College (Canada). Since he keeps it up-to-date, this would be a useful source in the classroom for experimenting with and evaluating the latest apps.

    A great site for younger kids, to get an idea for the size & characteristics of various marine species. Some of the most detailed visualizations available on the web...and the audio recordings are outstanding. This is a great site to display via a projector in a classroom...be sure to turn the speakers up!

Teaching resources - Akita Wiki - 0 views

    A very interesting educational wiki from Akita, Japan. Currently maintained, and looks like useful information no matter what country you're from! (Site in English). This site would be useful to a teacher interested in seeing how other people groups address instructional technology issues.

    This wikispace is full of different elementary wiki pages. It allows other elementary teachers the chance to look at other teachers pages for ideas for different content areas.
  •  
    Amanda, this looks like a great resource for elementary teachers. Have you had a chance to play around with this site more yet? I'd like to find more "chat" sites to communicate and connect with other elementary teachers. Wiki's are a great place to find free resources.

Super Teacher Tools - 0 views

    Classroom resource for games and management tools. This website provides very easy tools for creating seating charts, random name picker (think digital popsicle sticks) and random group maker. On the game side, easily create games like Jeopardy, Speed Match, and Who wants to be a millionaire. Save the links and use over and over. Highly motivating!

  •  
    I love it!! I like that parents and students can be alerted and no personal info is exchanged. Seems very easy to set up and use. Do you have experience using Remind101?
  •  
    Yes I do, my parents love it. I used to do more with a class website, but never had anyone read it. I figured, everyone now a days has cellphones I'd just send them messages that way. It's all anonymous so my personal info is safe. I just send quick messages about what's due or coming up.
  •  
    I've used this for a year. I have to say that the parents in my room are in love with it. I text out homework daily and misc. announcements.

    Multimedia poster/collage - could be used by student or teacher to present /share info
  • ...1 more comment...

    I think this would be a great change of pace from the typical poster. I did see that if you wanted yourself and a class that it would cost money, but the free trial was only available to teachers. However, you can search for completed projects and use that if it is public. I think if you were trying to use this for a free resource then it is more beneficial for the teacher because it would be an additional teaching resource.

    This is an amazing resource for a science teacher like myself! I get the dreaded "why do I have to know this?" question far to often. This seems like a great way of naturally answering that. I am definitely an encourage of questioning so have a bank of resources for how to answer "why must we learn this?" is a huge help!

    Good find! Is this the author of one of our texts for class? His feedback about educational reform is powerful! This is definitely a teacher resource, and something I will be referring to during the school year when I feel alone in my ideas for change. Misery loves company?
