Reflection Session 4

What I feel students need to know before engaging in Internet searches and online social networking sites:

• Students need to know what the goal of the engagement is (if academic)
• Students need to know what the parameters are (if academic)
• Students need to know not be naive about creepy peoples' motives for contact with them (always)
• Students must be guided in ethical/proper behavior when using social networks in particular
  

How can technology support student understanding and building of knowledge?

• much more content can be presented in a shorter amount of time compared to traditional methods
• especially when learning History, videos, presentations with images, etc., (viewing and creating) are very valuable

Types of products I feel can inspire creativity and innovation:

• webquests
• student made video
• power point presentations - teacher and student made
