11 If you are unsure of how to search effectively, here are some examples of search strategies from the Teacher Tap Web site (http://eduscapes.com/tap/topic74.htm). Select the Keywords. Use words related to the type of information you seek. ●Select precise words and avoid common words such as the, of, and, apply. ●If you’re seeking a particular kind of teaching resource, use “WebQuest”, “tutorial”, or “tips” in your search. Search for earthquake+webquest. Search in Cycles. View your search from different angles and approaches. ●If you’re exploring information about the art of sculpture, you might do a series of searches the following combination of words: sculpture, sculptors, famous statues, carving, Alexander Calder, and even gargoyles. ●Try a variety of (at least three different) search engines, directories, and guides in your search. You might start with a general guide such as About.com and end with more precise tools such as Google.

Broaden or narrow your search with operators. Keep in mind that different search tools use different operators. Many search engines assume that you’re using the word and between each word even if you don’t enter it. Explore the following chart for more ideas:

13 How can I tell if a website is credible? There are six ways you can tell if your website is credible. Author – Information on the internet with a listed author is one indication of a credible site. The fact that the author is willing to stand behind the information presented (and in some cases, include his or her contact information) is a good indication that the information is reliable. Date – The date of any research information is important, including information found on the Internet. By including a date, the website allows readers to make decisions about whether that information is recent enough for their purposes. Sources – Credible websites, like books and scholarly articles, should cite the source of the information presented.

14 Domain – Some domains such as.com,.org, and.net can be purchased and used by any individual. However, the domain.edu is reserved for colleges and universities, while.gov denotes a government website. These two are usually credible sources for information (though occasionally a university will assign a.edu address to each of its students for personal use, in which case use caution when citing). Be careful with the domain.org, because.org is usually used by non-profit organizations which may have an agenda of persuasion rather than education. Site Design – This can be very subjective, but a well-designed site can be an indication of more reliable information. Good design helps make information more easily accessible. Writing Style – Poor spelling and grammar are an indication that the site may not be credible. In an effort to make the information presented easy to understand, credible sites watch writing style closely. https://uknowit.uwgb.edu/page.php?id=30276

15 Apps To Watch Out For Yik YakYik Yak –It allows posters up to submit up to 200 characters which can be view by their closest 500 “Yakkers,” determined by GPS tracking. It’s gaining the reputation of an app that allows you to anonymously post sexually explicit and abusive language. DownDown – This app has a slogan that goes something like, “The anonymous, simple, fun way to find friends who are down for the night.” OmegleOmegle – Using this app, you can video chat with someone else. Because you are matched with a stranger, there is a high risk that the stranger will be a sexual predator. WhisperWhisper– Just two short years ago, a 12-year-old girl was raped by man she met while using this app. This app is for telling secrets, and although anonymous, it does display the area you are posting from. KiK MessengerKiK Messenger– KiK will also your kids to send messages that you can’t see and verifying the identities of the sender or receiver is very difficult. This is a very popular app for kids under age 18, and it’s also very popular with sexual predators. http://www.teensafe.com/blog/find-hidden-apps-your-teen-doesnt- want-you-seeing/

17 How To Find Hidden Apps Poof is an app that you definitely need to be familiar with, because it allows teens to make other apps they don’t want you see disappear. Although this particular app is no longer available, your child may still have it and use it. VaultyVaulty is an app for Android phones that allows you to create a password-protected ‘Vault” in which media such as photos and videos can be hidden away from the main image gallery. Vaulty will also take a picture of any person who tries to access the Vault with the wrong password. Hide It ProHide It Pro is similar to Vaulty, but is available for both Android and iPhone smartphones. It allows you to hide media, and the app itself is disguised as an “Audio Manager” that seemingly controls the volume of the smartphone. However, pressing and holding the app reveals a lock screen behind which users can hide messages, photos, videos, and apps.

23 Scenario 2. Michelle likes to post on Twitter and Instagram. Often she will spend two or three hours each day on these social media sites. She has over 400 followers—some are friends and family but others are just friends of friends. She posts several times a day and connects to many friends’ sites as well. Michelle’s mom thinks that she has about 20 followers on Twitter. What issues might this cause? Scenario 3. Sarah received a smartphone for her birthday. As with most smartphones, hers has the ability to take photos and video. During algebra class, she decides to take a picture of Ms. Everett, the substitute, while her back is turned to the whiteboard. She uploads it to her Facebook account and talks about how boring class was. What are the issues? Page 118 – Digital Citizenship in Schools, 3 rd Ed. Discussion Scenarios – for Teachers

25 Scenario 6. At home, a student uses a software package to copy movies and games for friends. What should be considered when duplicating copyrighted materials? Scenario 7. A student downloads a proxy tunneling program to their school computer to circumvent the school’s firewall. Should students use software to “tunnel” around the school’s firewall to get to the sites they want? Scenario 8. Two students use messaging apps on their cellular/smartphones to pass information during class. Is it wrong to send messages during class? Scenario 9. The school administration places all the enrollment documents on the school website. Is it right to assume that all homes have access to internet access?
