Day 16: May 3 - Digital Citizenship
How To Type - go Slow! Start with the Home Row practice. Let's work through that to start class :)
In 6 groups, your groups will have 30 minutes to put together a short slide presentation on your assigned topic. Please use the links below to summarize your topic. You can use Google slides or any other presentation medium. There must be one slide per group member (5 group members = 5 slides) Presentations can be no longer than 3-4 minutes.
First start by all silently READING the page you've been assigned. Discuss with your group the 5-6 Slides you could use to discuss your topic. Start a Google Slides, invite your group members, and split up who would like to present what! Everyone should make their own slide.
•Group 1: Cyberbullying Overview (definition, how it happens, short summary)
•Group 2: Example of how people cyberbully (You may know more examples outside of this page, please share them)
•Group 3: Who does it and why?
•Group 4: The Role of Witnesses (short summary then focus on the bullet points!)
•Group 5: Strategies on how to fight it (Strategies for Empowering Witnesses)
•Group 6: The law (What is defamation? slander? How does the Charter impact the law? What's the law in BC?)
SLIDE TIPS: Remember to use short bullet points and FEW words on your slides. Some of your slides may also be JUST images or even ONE word while one group member is talking. One may be JUST a number/statistic/percentage.
