Copyright and fair use have to do with the legality of using other people's work. The symbols that we always see but never really consider have to do with this, like the c in a circle symbol. There are varying degrees to which one can borrow someone else's work. Sometimes they can use it but not profit off it, sometimes they must accredit the original creator.
When it comes to some of these technological issues I'll focus on lack of funding and cyberbullying. I remember many different fundraisers in school growing up. Magazine sales, bake sales, girl scout cookies. If someone really took the time to plan stuff like that out I think it could go a long way. As for cyberbullying I think the most important thing is to build a relationship of trust with every student, and let all students know they can turn to you if cyberbullying is happening to them.
The Newsletter Design was surpassingly difficult for me. I now see that I know nothing about Microsoft word. So I learned a lot through this like how to make columns and make hyperlinks. I think this will all surely be useful for my future no matter what I do. One thing that could improve my newsletter is if I ever figure out how to make the banner span the whole header.

Hi, Jon!
ReplyDeleteI definitely agree with you that lack of funding and cyberbullying are huge issues when it comes to the use of technology in the classroom. Cyberbullying is something that no one should have to go through and I think that building trust with your students is a great way to show them that you are there for them no matter what. Lack of funding is definitely a problem too, especially with the current circumstances. Many students do not have access to the resources they need to attend class and ultimately end up getting behind in the material. I think that fundraisers are a great way to help schools earn more money to supply their students with the right resources and help them better their learning. Great post!
