GDC Scenario
You are standing by one of the school printers, and in the tray, there are several copies of a poster showing a senior student. The picture of the student is Photoshopped and includes a very unkind and spiteful caption. You would be quite upset if someone made a poster of you like this and made those comments. What should you do ignore it, report it, or pass it out?
The best thing for the student to do would be to report it to a responsible adult.
Teachers, Parents, and Administrators: On the ISTE website it talks about teaching the student
what to do rather than what not to do. Teaching the student what would be a good way to
respond to the situation instead of always saying don't get in that kind of situation it gives the
students the ability to grow and become great people in society. It is up to the teachers,
parents and administration to give the students the tools to make great decisions for themselves.
Students: By talking about these digital issues and what they would do in these
situations it allows the students to already know what they should do in the situation so hopefully,
they do. The student has been given all the tools to make the right decision it is just up to them
to follow through.
I think those would be good responses to those situations. I like how you pointed out the students usually know what they should do. It just depends on if they want to. Technology comes with a choice. Good job.
ReplyDeleteHi Rylee,
ReplyDeleteI like how you made that connection and how you refer to students knowing already what is good and what is bad. They just need to reinforce what they already know. I like that you made it more like a teaching strategy and not based on an existing article. Great Job!
