Internet+Safety-+Part+2

1. Explain your project and the reason you selected it. - My project is about internet safety and teaching kids that using the internet can be like going out for Halloween. This means that during Halloween people wear masks and costumes which prevent us from knowing if someone is a friend or a complete stranger. The internet is like this too because we can not see who we are talking to so we don't really have any way of knowing if we are talking with a friend or a complete stranger. My powerpoint project also teaches that since we can not know for sure who we are talking too we should never give out any personal information to anyone while on the internet. 2. Describe how you are going to use it and what viewers will learn. - I kind of just answered this question in #1 but I would use it as an opening to a lesson on internet safety. And the viewers would learn about what personal information is and that we shouldn't ever give it out over the internet even if we think we are talking to a friend. 3. Explain the benefits of using an interactive power point for creating lessons. - I think there are many benefits to using powerpoints in lessons because it is a visual aid to the students while you are talking. You can put videos, pictures, games, quizzes and many other things like that on powerpoints and it makes the lesson alot more interesting than just standing in front of a class talking. Also you could get the kids to read the slides to get them involved. And all the words are in front of them so they can follow along to what you or another student is reading and help them with comprehension. 4. What concepts did you learn that will help you when incorporating power point in your teaching? - I learned different techniques to use on the powerpoint that will help me incorporate it into my teaching such as learning how to put videos and pictures onto my slides. 5. What worked well? - I think it all worked well. I don't have any complaints. 6. What did not work well? - Nothing. 7. Name 3 new things you learned to do in PowerPoint for this project. - Hyperlink, adding pictures and videos, adding animations when the slide changes
