Internet Safety project; Cyberbullying

To start with, what I'd like you to do is go to Word and write out a definition for Cyberbullying.  This should be your own definition - do not look this up either on the Internet or somewhere else.  Just enter your best definition off the top of your head.  I will guide you through the rest of our little exercise as you complete your definition.

Once we are done with the Cyberbullying exercise you will be working with your partner on your Internet Safety project.  At this point you should be gathering information to create your movie.  Don't spend all of your time messing around in Xtranormal.  You need to gather your information for your 4 different areas of Internet Safety FIRST, and then you can worry about creating your video.

When you are creating your video, you need to go through a simple series of steps to creating a movie that will be easy to understand and that will earn you a good score.  First, explain what area of Internet Safety you are discussing (Cyberbullying, Identity theft, passwords, etc.) - usually a great way to do that is to provide a definition so that your audience can learn what that area of Internet Safety is.  Secondly, provide details about that particular area of Internet Safety.  You may want to provide stats or give examples of that particular area.  Last, or in addition to the details, what needs to be done so that you can stay safe online within this area of Internet Safety?

 Today I will also be handing out a crossword puzzle - this will be due on Friday.  It is a homework assignment - you will need to work on this outside of class.
