After completing this project I have learned a great deal about the internet and how it effects my future classroom and how my students learn. Throughout my K-12 career I remember certain websites being blocked and I never understood why, but now that I am educated on CIPA I finally have an explanation. CIPA is interesting because I remember many of my peers using websites that unblocked the websites the CIPA had schools blocked. Also with technology and social media growing and becoming so evident in our society I wonder if CIPA may someday just go away. If used correctly I believe social media could be a powerful tool in learning  and something my future students may benefit from, but with CIPA they may never have that chance in the classroom. My favorite part of this project was coming up with the lesson plans because it really helped me understand the criteria enough to be able to do research and find a good way to teach the material. Overall I really enjoyed this project and I've learned a lot throughout the process.

As a future teacher I believe it is very important to know Digital Law for many reasons. One of the reasons is because it is the law, it's not optional and not something you can do if you want or not do if you want but it is written on paper that this can not be done. Therefore I believe as a future teacher it is important to educate your students on digital law and what it entails, because your students may not get that somewhere else. With technology being a newer aspect of our society the students parents may not know or understand technology or the digital law so it is important as a teacher to educate your students on this topic. Also as a future teacher it is extremely important to understand CIPA because this is something that will directly effect your classroom.

To teach Digital Literacy I would do a scavenger hunt online. I would give them many different fake websites with inaccurate information and credible websites and have them determine if a website is credible or not. Prior to this I would give a lesson on how to determine if a website is credible by showing them aspects of the website such as FAQS, content authors, check the forward links, etc. After completing their scavenger hunt I would go over the websites as a class to ensure that the information they have learned is embedded in their memory and something they will carry with them throughout their education.

In order for school's to get funding for CIPA they have to fulfill the requirements. One of these is that their internet safety policies must include monitoring the online activities of minors. Another is that they must educated minors about appropriate online behavior, including interacting with others on social media sites, in chat rooms and cyber bullying awareness and response.

Prior to this class, and this project, I had never heard of Netiquette. While I know cyberbullying is not polite and typing in all caps is considered yelling, I did not know that all these aspects of polite internet use where under the large umbrella of Netiquette. I believe it's incredibly important to teach students how to be safe, and polite on the internet. I think it could have long lasting effects if students are aware of the impact they might have on others even though they are using technology. Personally, I love talking on the phone, facetiming and spending time with others in the most in person setting as possible. I am also aware that others prefer less personal settings and prefer other outlets of communication like texting or chat rooms. I think internet safety is a much bigger issue that it is currently made out to be. In a world where your self confidence is tied to how many "likes" all internet users should be aware of the impact they have on others. I also believe that if more users knew the direct impact they cause to others it would make users think twice about what they post.

A possible lesson on netiquette I would conduct in a classroom would be a mock news anchor project. I would first start with pre assessment and make sure all the students knew the definition and a few examples of Netiquette. Afterwards, the students, would go into another non participating class and interview 2-3 students each, asking them "what is netiquette" and "what are examples of netiquette" and "what ways could you better your own internet use and be a better user". My students would then learn about the importance of "copyrighting" when using their own words and interviewing other students. I would instruct them to make sure they "cite" who they interviewed and that their information was accurate to what that student said.  Afterwards, students would make either a video project or a power point including the correct "citations" and learn more about digital citizenship while making their own projects. I would also include a reflection aspect and have the students explain why it would be unfair for someone to copy their entire power point, that in turn would make them understand why it isn't ok to plagiarize and commit copyright infringement.

Digital Law's relationship to Digital Citizenship

Digital citizenship can be defined as "the quality of habits,actions, and consumption patterns that impact the ecology of digital content and communities" meaning the user is responsible for the quality of internet use they produce and the impact those actions would have on the digital community. This directly coorelates to digital law because someone who practices good digital citizenship would not be breaking digital law. For example, a user stealing someone's identity would also have misused digital citizenship because there would be no integrity to their actions.

I believe digital law's relationship with children's safety is to teach young users what is, and what is not copyright infringement. For example, a young user may not know the impact they could have by illegally downloading a movie, that not only are they breaking digital law, but they could be exposing themselves to harmful viruses and hackers through illegal downloads.

Before completing this section of the project I did not know Netiquette existed. I knew and understood there were certain rules regarding the internet and social media, but I did not know these rules had a name and were so official. This is something I wish they taught me in school because I think its very important when understanding how others might view what you say on the internet. The internet is a tricky place when trying to put your thoughts into words because someone could easily take it out of context. When practicing good Netiquette this could all be avoided. I believe it is essential to teach Netiquette in schools because everyone uses this internet and social media and understanding how to use it properly and politel

Do not spam! Spamming is the acting of writing many useless messages in an unwanted place such as a chat room or message board. It could be very annoying to other users and is an example of bad netiquette.

If you receive a text, comment, or email that does not have proper Netiquette, do not respond back via the internet. Instead, speak to the sender in person to clarify if the message was intended in a rude way.

CIPA- Children's Internet Protection Act

CIPA- Children's Internet Protection Act

# data[].attributes.body
In 2000 The Children's Internet Protection Act was put into place by congress to protect what children see and experience while on the internet. CIPA requires K-12 schools and libraries to have blocks on certain websites to protect children from harmful or inappropriate information they may find online. Schools and libraries must have this because it is a condition for federal funding.

Avoid writing in all caps!  When writing in all caps other's may think you are yelling at them through the computer. To avoid hurt feelings don't write in all caps.

# data[].attributes.body
Do not gossip or tell too much personal information. Spreading gossip could lead to hurt feelings and giving too much personal information could be very dangerous! Stay safe and if you have to hesitate before posting something then it probably should not be posted.

# data[].attributes.body
Be respectful of others opinions and always allow others to express themselves even if their opinion differs from yours. Agreeing to disagree is a phrase essential when discussing proper netiquette. There is no reason to argue with someone over the internet over a disagreement in opinions.

# data[].attributes.body
Always proof- read your comments before posting them! It is very easy for someone to read something online and take it out of context. With this being said it is essential to re-read what ever it is you may be posting to ensure you will not hurt anyone's feelings in the process!
