Internet Safety and Student Privacy: There are many issues surrounding internet safety but each students
safety and privacy can be protected with simple steps. Not having the students names, pictures, emails, etc.
on the Edublog is a good first step in protecting that child. If an activity or project does occur in which
pictures are taken, the teacher must have the parental permission form filled out. The main decision for a
childs privacy comes down to what the parents are willing to share. However, administration and teachers
have to consider every small detail. When students are using their own personal laptops in school there are
internet blocks placed that keep them from going off on the internet alone. Precautions are taken in every
single aspect.
Describe your personal learning goal for this activity. In this lesson I am trying a new lesson idea in
which students become experts through conducting research at home. I am giving the parents the role of
facilitators as they look after their children as they search the web. I hope to learn whether it is best to
conduct research at home or in the school system. Also, if the students can successfully collect information
from the internet.
Other comments about your proposed activity: I am excited to see how beneficial it is in the classroom!
