SHMOOP Day 3 - Real Websites
-Open a new Google Doc

Step 1 (15 mins):  "Website Evaluation True or False Quiz."  Take the quiz on their own and then “correct” your own quiz, as we discuss the answers as a whole class.

INSERT A TABLE 3 cells wide X 12 cells tall

 Statement     True/False? Explanation
 Wikipedia is the gospel. I can believe it and use it for my class papers  
 Websites that end in .gov are always legit  
 Websites that use tildes are where I put my trust  
 I can trust websites that end in .edu    
 Information from .com domains will always be false  
 Information from .org domains will always be true  
 Information from .net domains will always be false  
 It says "blog" in the URL, so it can't be trusted  
 I can trust a website with typos  
 The site's graphics are super high quality, so it's a trustworthy source  
 I shouldn't be so cynical about websites' missing info and authors, cause that make me a hater  


Step 2 (10 mins): Review with students the guidelines outlined for detecting lies online. Hopefully, they will have gathered all of the following tips:

 

·         Copy & paste the following 6 items into your Netiquette Doc

 

  1. Be a skeptic.
  2. Don’t be fooled by cool or professional websites. 
  3. Ask yourself what’s the point of view of the site. What are they trying to get me to believe? What opinions or ideas are missing? 
  4. Investigate the source. Find out who published the information. 
  5. Follow the "Rule of 3": compare three sources of information. 
  6. Be careful about using facts that you find without checking them out first.

Step 3 (20 mins): Give students the "Shady or Legit? Web Evaluation Form" handout and ask them to evaluate whether the listed websites seem to deserve an L (for legit) or S (for shady).

 

Now that we know a little bit about what to look for, let’s use this worksheet to evaluate whether some websites are valid and true or probably not.


Insert a table 6 Wide X 11 Tall

 Website  Shady or Legit?Can you tell who wrote the site?
Are they a legit source of information?
Can info be found on other sites?
Does it answer all your questions?
Professional looking?
Formate raise concerns?
URL seem safe?
Biased? Do you see anything that makes you think the site isn't totally objective?
Does the website have an "agenda"?
uoregon.edu
 whitehouse.gov     
 eapoe.org     
 poemuseum.org     
 houseofusher.net     
http://pirlwww.lpl.arizona.edu/~jscotti/apollo.html     
www.ufos-aliens.co.uk/cosmicapollo.html     
 nasa.gov/mission_pages/apollo     
 timtfj.wordpress.com     
 blogs.scientificamerican.com/budding-scientist     

 

Step 4 (15 mins): As a class, discuss the websites and how the students determined whether they were shady or legitimate.


Which sites deserve the following awards:

  1. Sketchiest (Worst)
  2. Most Legit (Best)
  3. Sassiest (Bold)
  4. Pics Had It Goin’ On (Best Looking)
  5. Smells Fishy (Need to research more)

SHMOOP Day 2 - Internet Safety
-Open a new Google Doc

Answer these brainstorming questions
Step 1 
Students: Watch the "Passwords 101" video on YouTube and answer the following questions:
  1. What are some examples of bad passwords? Are any of your personal passwords weak like these?
  2. Why are these passwords unsafe? Why are they easy to hack? 
  3. Do you think any of your personal passwords are strong?
Step 2 
Copy as paste these Tips and Highlight the 2 that you think are most important.
You will be discussing the reasons you chose to highlight them.
  • Don't ever write down your password.
  • Never ever text or email your password, since then anyone who breaks into your phone or laptop can steal your password.
  • Don't tell anyone your password. 
  • Variety is the spice of life: don't use the same password for everything
  • Don't let public computers remember your passwords or usernames. (We're not suggesting your local librarian is an identity thief, but you have to be careful.)
Why did you choose those two?
Write down the main points you and your partner discussed (2-4 Sentences)


Step 3 

Students, use the criteria you came up with for good and bad passwords to create a list of 5 bad (or weak) passwords, ones that are easy to guess. you can work alone or in partners. Then each student comes up with one good password that he/she keeps private. 

BAD

1.

2.

3.

4.

Finish SHMOOP Day 1

Step 4 (15-20 mins):  Pick one type of Cyberbullying (or tactic, as they're called in the Internet Safety 101 article from Step 1).

The types of bullying tactics are listed below. (Students should refer to the Internet Safety 101 article for definitions.)

  • Gossip

  • Exclusion

  • Impersonation

  • Harassment

  • Cyberstalking

  • Flaming

  • Outing and trickery

  • Cyberthreats

Each person creates a "group chat" using this link about the type of bullying, how the victims can get help, and who they can get help from.

The skits should each present at least one way to resolve the particular type of cyberbullying.  

Each skit "chat" will be written out on their Shmoop Day 1 Google Doc.



Example: 
Gossip:
1. Student A: Oh my gosh, Joey won’t stop spreading rumors about me online! (Line 1)

2. Student B: What a jerk! What are you going to do to get him to stop? (Line 2)

3. Student A: I think I am going to go talk to my Counselor and see what she says. (Line 3)

4. Student B: Oh that would be a good idea, you can also... (Line 4)

5. Student A: Yeah I could do that, but I don't want him to get in trouble, just to stop (Line 5)

---Student A goes to Counselor
6. Student A; Hey Ms. Williams... (Line 6)

7. Mrs. Williams: blah blah blah (Line 7)


20 Lines of dialogue total!!! Split into 2 different "screenshots" 10 and 10


Remember there are many different ways in which cyberbullying can take place and many ways to try and

resolve it if/when it happens.



Step 5
Visit this page or this page that covers A LOT of bullying statistics
-Find 4 statistics that stand out to you
    -Why did it stand out?

Ex:
  • 25% of teens on social media reported having an experience resulting in a face-to-face confrontation with someone.
This stood out to me because...

  • Common Core Standards: ELA 6-8th Grade Standards: Reading 1, 2; Reading for Informational Text 1, 2, 4; Writing 2d, 3d, 6, 8; Speaking and Listening 1bcd, 2.
