  • You have the right to express yourself online, whether you are writing e-mails, posting to a blog, updating a homepage, or talking in a chat-room. Yet you also are responsible for your actions as they affect others
  • The U.S. Constitution and the Washington Constitution guarantee freedom of expression for everyone, including students. Students do not give up their constitutional rights when they walk onto school grounds. Whether you want to comment on a new school rule, gay rights, teen pregnancy, or the latest national news, you have the right to express your ideas, including those that are controversial. But there are limits

  • True Threats Whether you are in school or not, online or in-person, the right to free speech does not protect speech that a reasonable person would interpret as a serious expression of your desire and ability to harm him/her.
  • Defamatory Statements The right to free speech also does not protect false personal attacks against another person that are untrue, that harm someone's reputation, and that you knew, or should have known, were untrue when you said or wrote it.
  • Obscene Speech The right to free speech does not protect speech that deals with sex in a manner appealing to purely lustful interests in a patently offensive manner, and without serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value.
  • For speech to be considered a "true threat," it must be something that a reasonable person would interpret as a serious expression of an intention to harm him/her.
  • If the school provides students with an e-mail address, it can impose rules on its use. For example, it can require that the address be used only for school-related purposes and can prohibit using the account in a way that interferes with another student's learning, such as sending flames or bullying messag

    Check these out. Tony Vincent is a great follow on Twitter or Google +. Free apps are great for individual use, but they can be a problem for schools with multiple iOS devices if/when the app transitions to a paid version. Especially if you are using Configurator to manage the devices.

  • some feel "tech prep" is a waste of time, but far more view it as a crucial set of skills that does double duty.
  • SETDA advocates blending computer skills seamlessly into instruction, rather than teaching them in isolation.

      Yes, but some skill lesson has to happen or poor habits will develop and their skills will bottom out way to soon.

  • Of course, some computer skills are valuable, like keyboarding, creating multimedia projects, manipulating programs they'd use in life and school,
  • "They can run an iPhone like a champ, or the iPads we have here at school. But they're not that exposed to keyboarding skills or using the mouse to move something up and down on a screen."

      Love this!
  • Using an online math program, they learn to move and click a mouse, and cut and paste text. As they move through the grades, they add more skills, integrated into their core-content study, Ms. Warr said.
  • "If we were trying to teach the tech skills in isolation, there would be a huge pushback [from teachers], but we integrate them into other subjects," Ms. Warr said.

      But this has to start young so it builds. Teachers need help in how to make this happen seamlessly.
  • But because the Smarter Balanced assessment expects more "writing in one shot" online, he's encouraging teachers to shift their "quick writes" to the computer, he said.

  • 1st graders are starting with a free online game called Dance Mat, where they pick out letters one at a time, and work up to typing their names, Mr. Decker said. In 2nd grade, students begin using an online program called Type To Learn three times a week. Third and 4th graders continue it twice a week, and by 5th grade, it's down to weekly.

    In this article, teachers and administrators share their desire to differentiate between computer skills that are test-based only and those that are actually life skills, too, and then figure out how to work those into the school day in a constructive way.
