Internet Citizenship
I strive throughout the teaching/ learning process to promote and model digital citizenship and responsibility. This can include including respecting copyright, intellectual property, and avoiding plagiarism by the using the appropriate documentation of sources. This also extends to the teachers understanding of local and global societal issues and responsibilities in an ever changing digital culture as well as demonstrating legal and ethical behavior in their professional practices.

b. Address the diverse needs of all learners by using learner-centered strategies providing equitable access to appropriate digital tools and resources.
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.
This was a collaborative group project using a permade scenario and applying constructivist teaching methods in order to help the teacher in the scenario use her technology in the best manner for active learning. Some of the techniques we suggested were to use the television channel to learn about current events in the news. Using the laptops to have conversations through skype with other students from different cultures and using tablets for creating mand maps and doing research.
"Good job. It appears from the discussions that you did some collaborating on this, and the lessons are interesting and seem constructivist. Right on target."--Dr. Albert Ingram
Effective Online Teaching. ITEC-50093-004-201510
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.
Throughout this course we had to write in our reflection journal and then in a later discussion our class talked about our ideas about learning-centered online teaching.
"Great ideas! Having students submit questions and co-create a study guide really helps them feel more invested in their learning (and the exam)"-

Flipping Your Classroom. ITEC-50093-008-201560
For this assignment, I had to create a mastery model for a Flipped classroom format and create a class and it's model. As a final project, I had to creat an instructional video related to the online Flipped classroom I had created.
"Your video was engaging and informative. I always wondered how people got rainbow hair...
Nice job. Good luck converting your cosmetology course to a flipped format. It will be a benefit for the students to be able to have more one-on-one time with you."--Elizabeth Thomas
