As you all know we have been talking about digital citizenship which is appropriatly using technology along with all of its components. (Internet use especially)
-Today we will be working on a project that will include group work and a short essay.
So what everyone will do is pick one topic off of the website below and write a summary page for one of the 19. All using the Ipads and computers (in class) to do further research of these topics.
After writing the papers 20-30 minutes. We will make groups of three and first we will each explain our topics to our groups and together make a powerpoint; once again using the computers in class incorporating all three topics and explaining how they relate to digital citizenship.

These are websites for you as students to use as research . I especially like brainpop which really has several of the topics that we will be researching but feel free to use any other sources that appeal to your group.
