I also watched some of the videos on internet safety and while the information seems pretty straight forward to us as adults, are the actually showing this footage or videos like this during school to hammer home these points? If they are not, they should be--pretty good stuff!

School technology/internet safety
The worst thing i discovered after looking at the NJCCCS site was that i am only computer literate at the 8th grade level according to their standards. I was able to squeak under the wire with a few of the 12th grade, but wasn't confident that I could pass all of them. Does anybody know who determines and sets those standards? Is it a bunch of retired teachers with nothing to do--or is it somebody's job to set, write, and maintain them? I have to give them credit because it seems awfully boring and tedious. They were very thorough and i dont want that job either way.

Hi Eric,
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting.
You have posed some an interesting question. Often, I wonder who is in charge of developing the standards. This would be a topic to research... Also, who truly enforces them? Principals? Teachers? School Boards? The state?
Great job!
