In the Classroom

Before starting a lesson, create a scavenger hunt where students find examples of positive and negative digital behavior, such as a well-cited article vs. fake news or a respectful comment vs. cyberbullying. Use Nearpod reviewed here to include interactive features (like polls and collaborative boards) to discuss their findings. Use a Nearpod Time to Climb activity or a quiz to present real-life digital dilemmas (ex,: "A friend shares their password with you--what do you do?"). Have students use Nearpod's Draw It feature or a tool like Canva reviewed here to design an infographic on online safety, cyberbullying, or digital footprints.
