Before doing this project, I had never heard of Netiquette or News Literacy. Extensively researching both of these topics have shown me how valuable and important it is to understand the basics of communicating and obtaining information on the internet. My "takeaway" is that Netiquette and News Literacy definitely have to be taught in the classroom. As technology is such a big part of learning today, it is key that students are properly showed how to navigate, judge, explore, and maintain politeness online. This research has strengthened my views in that now I am more aware of how critical it is to expose children to this information, in order for them to be aware and enlightened. These skills and tips will be maintained and utilized for a lifetime.

I hope to teach 3rd graders when I begin my journey as an educator. My Netiquette lesson plan would be explain Netiquette with the aid of this Padlet. Next, the class will do an activity. I will have a bunch of mock comments that pop up on the Smartboard, one at a time. The comments will be appropriate for 3rd graders, of course, but they will either demonstrate good or bad examples of Netiquette. For example, a comment that reads "Great job," or "Thank you for your input," would be examples of good Netiquette. Comments like "You don't know what you're talking about," or "I hate this idea" would be examples of bad Netiquette. The students can volunteer to answer whether the examples are good or bad, and then we can tap/click the comment to reveal the answer. Next, I plan to teach News Literacy in the classroom by explaining it with the aid of this Padlet, again. Next, I would give the students small sections of pre-selected articles for them to judge if the information is accurate, biased, or reliable to trust, based on what they learned.

Researching News Literacy has taught me useful information and tips to utilize when verifying reliability on the internet. Although I have heard people say not to believe whatever you see online, it is sometimes easy to forget. Evidently, people absorb information online before checking it for bias, sources, or facts. This is why teaching News Literary skills are so important. Children can learn how to look up accurate information online and form his or her own opinions about topics. This ability is quintessential for developing students to learn how to obtain safe, accurate, and important information via the internet.

I learned that Netiquette is a tremendously important concept in this day in age. My takeaway is that because technology, specifically the internet, is so prevalent in today's society, it is crucial to teach our students how to act with politeness and respect online. Prior to my research, I would not have considered teaching Netiquette because I would have ignorantly expected kids to just initially know how to act online. Now, I realize that this is impossible if Netiquette were not taught. Enforcing Netiquette awareness in the classroom will help students understand how to be cultivated online- a significant task given the increasing relevance of technology existing in the modern world.

After doing research on both Netiquette and News Literacy, I found that they are both extremely important to everyone and not just children still in school. Before this project I didn't really have any concrete knowledge on Netiquette and News Literacy because I wasn't taught it before in elementary, middle, or high school. Although, when researching online for information in high school, teachers always said to make we were respectful and safe while on the internet and also to be sure our sources were creditable and reliable but never taught us the meaning of netiquette and news literacy. With children getting a lot of their information from the internet it is very important for future educators and educators now to teach children about netiquette and news literacy because it will be something they will take with them and use throughout their life.

As a future educator, I plan to teach grades anywhere from K-4 and within that curriculum they'll be on the computers from time to time. A lesson that I have thought of to teach my students about Netiquette (digital citizenship) is I would hold a discussion with my class and ask the initial question of what they think Netiquette means. After I have gotten a census of what the class thinks the word means, I would break the word down and show them the picture that is under the Netiquette section explaining each word. Then I would show them the video that Francesca and I have provided about Netiquette. Finally, after I taught them the meaning on the word Netiquette and showed them the video, I would how one last discussion and ask my class what are good and bad examples of netiquette and we would write them down on a big piece of paper to hang in the classroom so the students could be reminded of the good and bad examples.

I remember back when I was in middle and high school how my teachers always made it evident for the students to check the information and the sources to make sure it was correct. I think as soon as children start to look online for information is when News Literacy should be taught to show children that not all the information you find online is correct. With society, we rely more and more on technology and the information we get from it that's why it's good to know about News Literacy.

# data[].attributes.body
After learning what Netiquette really means, I feel that it is extremely important to teach children the importance of the meaning. Children and young teens in the present day don't think when they are on the internet, I know this because I was once their age and made the same mistakes they might make. It is very important that when children use technology either at home or in the classroom they are being safe, respectful, and being themselves as well. Teaching netiquette to children at younger ages will become beneficial as they grow up because they know what to do and what not to do online as they get older.

If you see friends, classmates, or even a stranger being rude someone one, don't be afraid to tell an adult about what is happening. Try and not to respond to mean and hateful comments because that could start an online fight or a "flame war.".

Treat others how you want to be treated, that goes for when you are online as well! Don't pass along another persons private information or photos unless you have their permission. You may not notice it, but sending someone else's information out without their permission could be considered as cyberbullying or even online harassment.

Making up false or fake profiles (alter egos) is clearly not being yourself and it will show when you communicate with other people online. These other people will also be less likely to talk openly with you and take you seriously. Do not be afraid to be you! Be your open and honest self.

Remember that before you post something online that you check what you typed out. Re-read it over and over again to make sure there are no errors and that is what you want to post for the public to see.

Many times, people who post information online are biased. Bias is a prejudice that exists when a person is in favor of a certain idea or perspective as opposed to another. It is important that people do not only read one-sided biases online, because then he or she cannot thoroughly understand all of the information. To locate bias on the internet, look for opinionated words or unfair patterns in the reading. Additionally, compare sources to others to make sure you understand multiple perspectives.

When you hear of the word Netiquette, you generally hear the two words "net" and "etiquette." Net meaning the internet and etiquette meaning having manners and being respectful. Therefore, netiquette means to respect others (while on the internet) showing common courtesy when posting to online discussions.

Don't believe everything you see on the internet! Just because something is stated online, that does not mean it is true. Journalists must clearly label opinion from fact. Others do not always do this. When reading a post online, check for sources. Then, fact check the sources by making sure they are valid and reliable. In order to prevent internalizing and spreading "fake news," consider who wrote the article, its date, and its credibility.
