my CLASSROOM & CYBER ETHICS
EDU5650: Cyber Ethics
Show students an exemplary work (with proper citations and references)
Instruct the students to search for the info from multiple websites and include the URL of the websites they have used
To learn that information presented online may not be adequate and correct
Students should be prepared to present their work (two students are chosen at random )
To ensure that students understand their own research...
Copied work (if not referenced) will be neglected and marks are not given as part of the assessment
Aiming to avoid plagiarism as much as possible
Research Work
H.W. Copy and paste info on a Word Document (a number of links are provided)
C.W. Use the info offline to develop their work
my CLASSROOM & CYBER ETHICS
EDU5650: Cyber Ethics
Students are encouraged to use audio and video clips in their PowerPoint presentations so as to minimize chunk paragraphs in the slides
Promote the use of multimedia resources WHILE ENFORCING THE PRACTICE OF CREDITING THE SOURCES
... include the link of the videos as captions underneath the video frames
... dedicate a last page to credit further resources such as songs
Presentational Work
my CLASSROOM & CYBER ETHICS
EDU5650: Cyber Ethics
Students use Google Docs to carry out group work tasks (having 3 member per group)
...such as Robotics Project, Multimedia Project, ICT projects including Presentations or Glogster (most often in collaboration with other teachers – cross curriculum)
Give students different roles (Leader, Tech-Friendly, Resourcer) The LEADER should delegate the work and establish contact time for the
members to meet online and develop the work ‘RESOURCER’ finds pictures, videos and other relevant material for the project ‘TECH-FRIENDLY’ oversees cyber ethical issues, especially Netiquette
(while students are working online) & plagiarism.
Online Group Work
my CLASSROOM & CYBER ETHICS
EDU5650: Cyber Ethics
What about if students do not have the necessary software??
Discourage the trend of students sharing software among themselves
The use of Open Office (freeware) instead of M.S. Office The use of PREZI as an alternative to M.S. PowerPoint The use of ONLINE Photo Editing tools instead of Photoshop The use of FREE Video and Audio editing tools rather than
downloaded ones
Software??
my CLASSROOM & CYBER ETHICS
EDU5650: Cyber Ethics
Involve students in constructive activities.
Develop ten rules for a classroom acceptable use policy.
Discuss these rules and finally establish a written acceptable use policy, including the consequences for violating it.
Students should create a Glogster about Cyber Ethics to be included into the classroom Website.

Reinforce proper behavior. Treat offenses as MISTAKES rather than CRIMES,
especially in the beginning.
Don't model inappropriate behavior. Teachers should keep persistent with the rules and
actively monitor bad practices
