Optional Lessons and Activities

  1. Cyberethics for Kids (U.S. Department of Justice)
    This Web site has several interactive activities on the topic of cyber citizenship as well as links to cyberethics info for teachers and students.

  1. iSafe Lesson - Social Networking in Online Communities
    This lesson is in the Personal Safety section of the iSafe curriculum, but it includes a review of some of the basic Cyber Community concepts, focuses on types of communication in online communities, and addresses both Netiquette and safety issues related with different types of online communities. This lesson is included on your CD (iSafe Social Networking G6-8.pdf).

  2. iSafe Lesson – Cyber Community Citizenship lesson for 8th grade
    Similar to the iSafe Cyber Community Citizenship lesson for 7th grade, but with additional activities.

  3. Tips for safe and responsible social networking
    Read and discuss this list of tips for using MySpace and FaceBook.

  4. NetSmartz – Keisha’s Crime/Angela’s Experience
    Students watch the video clips of “Keisha’s Crime” and “Angela’s Experience” which give examples of flaming and cyberharassment and help students learn how to respond to rude or offensive online messages. Students then complete the activity “Mingle Vocabulary” to learn terms related to online communication and answer questions related to both video clips. Use the link to get the videos; handouts are included as a PDF file.

Sample Activity

What would you do?"I got a copy of a really funny computer 'joke' from one of my friends. It asks you if you want Internet access for FREE? When you say 'yes,' it changes some files on your computer so that each time you log on, your computer says 'Way to go, DODO'. I think I will send it through the Internet to my friends as a joke."

What would you do? Click on one of the following choices:

  1. Send it only to people you know really well who will know it's a joke.

  2. Use your friend's account to send it so no one will know that you sent it.

  3. Tell my friend not to send it to anyone. It could be a "computer virus."

From the “Are You a Good Cybercitizen” activity
