Concerns with the use of technology in the classroom. by Colton Jackson https://padlet.com/jacksonc83/ozjbn5kql6l75l2p Health & P.E en-us 2022-03-11 15:40:24 UTC 2026-02-06 01:52:52 UTC hello@padlet.com Question! jacksonc83 https://padlet.com/jacksonc83/ozjbn5kql6l75l2p/wish/2090734902 I currently teach a digital health class where 90% of the course work is done online. My biggest concern for the students is being able to stay on task online and their online safety. What suggestions do you have to help monitor this? ]]> 2022-03-11 16:24:25 UTC https://padlet.com/jacksonc83/ozjbn5kql6l75l2p/wish/2090734902 sbonner33 https://padlet.com/jacksonc83/ozjbn5kql6l75l2p/wish/2092526421 I believe that teaching kids about online safety needs to begin at a very young age. My suggestion is to have a lesson on online safety that is age appropriate for your group of students. An open dialogue that allows students to learn about the potential dangers in cyberworld.  - Shirley Bonner]]> 2022-03-13 17:58:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jacksonc83/ozjbn5kql6l75l2p/wish/2092526421 madduxtrace17 https://padlet.com/jacksonc83/ozjbn5kql6l75l2p/wish/2093001320 I believe that you must make your rules and regulations well known from the beginning. It is very easy for kids to get off task. Lock down web browsers will also do the trick. ]]> 2022-03-14 03:10:22 UTC https://padlet.com/jacksonc83/ozjbn5kql6l75l2p/wish/2093001320 Ryleigh Pyles- Response ryleigh567 https://padlet.com/jacksonc83/ozjbn5kql6l75l2p/wish/2119559375 Working on the computer can take a lot of self control. With website blockers, or chrome extension that work like screen time it can help you stay on task more. Although it is easier to get distracted when mixing education and technology, it is still possible without technology. So just overall working on your own and your students own self discipline is the best way to make sure all needs are met. ]]> 2022-03-29 15:02:17 UTC https://padlet.com/jacksonc83/ozjbn5kql6l75l2p/wish/2119559375 Olivia Lansdell olivialansdell https://padlet.com/jacksonc83/ozjbn5kql6l75l2p/wish/2126076845 I think that for students to successfully and safely do school work on computers, the teachers need to have a way to monitor what they are on. For the safety part, help students understand what can happen online. A lesson over cyberbullying and computer safety would be a great way to start. ]]> 2022-04-01 22:31:17 UTC https://padlet.com/jacksonc83/ozjbn5kql6l75l2p/wish/2126076845
