Reflection |

When we teach students to write research papers, part of the teachings include how to properly cite the information found in a bibliography or works cited. As students have access to online resources, and are continually gaining further technology skills, it is now an educator's responsibility to ensure that the students are properly citing the information found. The article review introduces a new moral system called CyberEthics, and explains that the students of today do not realize the implications for plagarism from online sources. Students feel that they are free to use the information without permission, since it is so easy to access. The author of the article outlines ways to implement CyberEthics into the teachings of technology lessons. It is also important for teachers to obtain permission to display student work. Artifact # 1 is a permission form I use with my students, in order to ensure that parents are aware that student work may be published on my website. School districts should have acceptable use policies in place, so that students are aware of expectations regarding technology use. Artifact # 2 is a critique of an acceptable use policy that I would model my school's policy after if I were to create one. All of these artifacts display the importance of CyberEthics, as students should be aware of the negative consequences in using technology sources. |
