Good afternoon!
This is the “30th edition" of the Fabulous Friday Technology Tip (F2 T2) that shares technology tools and resources that can be integrated into your daily lessons, unit plans and classroom centers. The next few weeks of (F2 T2) will contain one resource and one tip/solution/idea for effectively integrating computers into your class.
- The resource for today is Web 2.0 Teaching Tools(http://www.web2teachingtools.com). This website takes a look at Web 2.0 tools. They are organized by 21st century learning skills, although most incorporate more than one of the skills.
- The idea/solution for today answers the following question-
- Supervision - watch the students, be within line of site of the students at the computer
- Check their Go Menu, History, and cache periodically
- Present Clear Guidelines for what students are supposed to be accomplishing while on the Internet, these guidelines need to be in place before punitive measures are administered
- Guidelines for Consequences
- Structured Activities with specific tasks in an amount of time that will allow them to accomplish the task and not allow time for surfing or going to inappropriate sites
- Student Responsibility - teach students the realities of the Internet and to be responsible for their actions and decisions
- Create launch pages
- Create a short cut on the desktop to the site you want students to visit and only allow them to go to that site
- Bookmark the sites you want students to visit and only allow them to go to those sites
- Teacher Planning and Preparation - teachers must visit the sites and check the links prior to students using the Internet to see if they are all appropriate
- Group your students so that each group has a trustworthy student who will report inappropriate activities.
