ISTE NETS-T #4: Teachers understand local and global societal issues and responsibilities in an evolving digital culture and exhibit legal and ethical behavior in their professional practices.
a. Advocate, model, and teach safe, legal, and ethical use of digital information and technology, including respect for copyright, intellectual property, and the appropriate documentation of sources
b. Address the diverse needs of all learners by using learner-centered strategies providing equitable access to appropriate digital tools and resources
c. Promote and model digital etiquette and responsible social interactions related to the use of technology and information
d. Develop and model cultural understanding and global awareness by engaging with colleagues and students of other cultures using digital age communication and collaboration tools
Technology: Here I would use more basic technology - internet and computers - to promote digital citizenship as the focus isn't so much using new technology as it is using technology in a responsible manner.
Activity/Lesson: One way I will promote and model digital citizenship and responsibility is by demonstrating specifically to students how to gather information from online and transfer it into their own words for their own presentation versus simply copying/pasting which in turn leads to plagiarism. My 8th grade students will complete a "Mini Museum" project where they are asked to research 3 artists from 3 different art movements and they are to create an artwork that is an interpretation of that artist's works. It can be difficult for the students to understand how to "interpret" work versus copying it, so I will begin the project by demonstrating how I go about finding an artist, looking at their body of work and finding the commonalities, and then putting those commonalities into a new work of art. It is important that the students realize the difference between interpreting a body of work in style and commonalities versus copying a single work from an artist.
Reflection:
Example: The example I would demonstrate in class to my students is the following:
Beginning with the art movement Pop Art, I have found the artist Andy Warhol. Here are a few images of his work:
Commonalities between Warhol's works of art:
- Recognizable images
- Multiple of each image
- Colors are not accurate to real life
With those three commonalities in mind, here is the work of art I created as an "interpretation" of Andy Warhol's work:
