English Period 1...7th Grade Digital Citizenship-Meeting #1 Reflection Activity

As a follow up to our meeting in advising today, I would like you to do a short little reflection activity by leaving a comment regarding the two points in bold below.

#1 Create an account at blogger.com. Follow the tips and suggestions for setting up your blogger.com account. Your username will be your email address that you use when creating a Google account. Your display name is what is used to sing your posts and comments. It is critical that you pick a display name that is nebulous in nature and does not reveal any personal information about you. After you pick a display name, please email it to Mr. Montagne at mmontagne@usmk12.org. For more tips and suggestions on setting up your blogger.com account, visit Mr. Montagne's post on this subject from last week.

#2 Please write your own dictionary definition for the term, "Netiquette." The definition should be 2-3 sentences and should follow the basic format of a dictionary entry (see dictionary.com for an example).

For the second response activity, answer the following question.

#3 What advice would you give to a fifth grader who is starting up an IM account for the first time? Please include a topic sentence in your response with 2-3 points that support your position. Round out your response to this question with a concluding statement.

Your responses should be posted no later than 4:30 PM on Friday, November 17th.

  3. 1)No giving away any personal information on the internet to people you don't know.

    2) My advice to 5th grader starting up an AIM account is to make a Screen Name that does not give away any personal info about yourself. Also don't put any personal things about you in your profile. Only add people to your buddy list that you know.

  6. #1 Netiquette is the way you should act on the web. You should be acting and talking how you do in real life but probaly with more abeveations(sp).

    #2 What i would tell a 5th grader is to never give any personal info out. This would include what school they go to, what sports team they play on, where they live or their name aand age. Also i would tell them that they should always know who they are talking to. At their age they should only be talking to friends.

    #3: Don't use your name, address, phone #, birthday, or hobbies as a username or password. If you do you could be at risk from child predators. Use things like penguin06 or something like that.
