Digital Citizenship

On the website of Digital Citizenship, it lists eight topics of Scope and Sequence. One of them is "Information and Literacy", under which students are capable to search pictures online based on descriptions, conduct online conversations with typing language, make their perspectives, make photos, learn about fair use and copyright, so on and so forth.

To embed the features into my classes, we implement an app called Heads Up or Charades and a website called Pedlet (pedlet.com), which is an on-line collaboration tool, in my class on Mar 4.

At beginning, students tried to play the word game with Head up, but it didn't work well while my iPad mini connecting with Apple TV, we switched it to Charades. The popularity of this sort of app was out of my expectation. my students were obsessed with it and insisted playing it after we have done three-round two-group competition. Hence, I let them work within their groups on a padlet to list what advantages of using Heads Up or Charades in the class, what are the disadvantages, how to apply this kind of app into their own classes in the future and how to deal with the disadvantages. And here are their padlets:

I really enjoyed the process that students played Charades, which, as they depicted, is an ice-breaker.
As to the use of padlet, it allows students to calm down from the fun and think about how to utilize  engaging apps into their career. This is just a start :)
