Reflection

1. Explain your project and the reason you selected it. I selected cyberbullying and online predators because I think they are very harmful and dangerous. Many kids today don't think the mean things they write on the virtual net is harmful and considered bullying, but it is. Also, I have a young daughter who loves the internet and I worry for her safety when she is playing online games which have chat rooms that are easy fields for predators to find their victims.

2. Describe how you are going to use it and what viewers will learn. I learned so much from the last two assignments on Internet Awareness. I didn't know anout all the helpful sites that provide helpful ressources for the parents and children to help better educate the dangers of living in a high tech world. As a parent I've already watched some videos and gone over some rules with my own children regarding internet safety.

3. Explain the benefits of using an interactive power point for creating lessons. The great thing about power point presentations is the creativity that can make a presentation so much more engaging. Creating quizzes to enhance the lesson material, to adding graphics and videos can keep a child engaged!

4. What concepts did you learn that will help you when incorporating power point in your teaching? I'm still learning my way around power point, but the one thing I did learn, which I really love is the use of the HYPERLINK : )

5. What worked well? I didn't come across something that didn't work out. So everything worked well.

6. What did not work well? Nothing that I implemented in my presentation gave me any problems.

7. Name 3 new things you learned to do in PowerPoint for this project. 1) Hyperlink 2) Using images from the internet 3) I used more text tools that I never used before
