Description
of Assignment: The purpose of this assignment was create a rules
and regulations for students when using the internet as well as a method
for notifying parents about internet usage. This assignment focuses
on the important role the teacher must play with regard to internet safety.
The responsibilities associated with the role of a teacher in relation
to the internet is to develop acceptable and unacceptable uses of the internet,
consequences for breaking the rules, and a contract for students to sign.
In this assignment, the responsibilities of parents and students are outlined
in addition to the role of the teacher, thus showing how usage of the internet
involves the cooperation of three parties. This illustration develops
includes such components designed specifically for an Honors Sociology
course.
Rationale
(Why you chose to use this as an illustration and how it is an example
of the Accomplished Practice: I chose to incorporate this illustration
because I felt it is an area often overlooked by educators. Although
there are several responsibilities one takes on when fulfilling the role
of a teacher must play, one of the most important duties involves developing
guidelines for students to follow when using technology, more specifically,
the internet. If the teacher should fail to meet the expectations
of this role unforeseen problems may occur during the process of learning
for students, teachers, and parents. In order to prevent problems
an internet safety plan is needed before students even begin using the
internet.
