The Phet Colorado website also allows students to check their understanding, providing immediate feedback.  Phet Colorado provides ‘challenges’ which assesses student learning on content pertaining to the website.  For example, the ‘Build an Atom’ challenge, provides five questions which will assess students’ understanding of this topic.

Engaging students in higher order thinking online requires careful planning and implementation. This video articulates how using socratic questioning can support higher order thinking. Key takeaways include: using open ended questions, grounding learning into personalised experiences, identifying and solving problems, and recontextualising knowledge.

- Understand the role of ICT in society and its impact on individuals.
- Appreciate the various people that use ICT and understand what it means to use ICT in an ethical, legal and safe manner.
- Use safe practices when utilising ICT, protect their personal information and understanding how to manage various types of communication.
- Reflect on any ICT issues when reviewing the impact of ICTs.

As outlined by Education Victoria, students must also understand:

  • Copyright and appropriate referencing

  • Utilizing settings on digital media to protect privacy

  • Cybersecurity (Department of Education and Training Victoria, 2020)
