Edu 742 - Session 6 - Reflection

At my students' (middle school) level, they should have acquired basic computer skills. They should know how to turn on the computer, open a program, launch an internet search, and save data in folders.

My team and I developed a list of procedures/restrictions that answers the question about the tech policy guide and I have attached it.

Students and parents should be made aware of the latest and most essential warnings put out about internet safety. Once again, the list of rules my team and I developed answers this topic as well.
