Class #8

     Tonight we reviewed webquests again. Students still had a lot of questions about how to create one so Dr. Damiri used this as an opportunity to show how reteaching is essential  in the classroom setting. After the review everyone felt more confident about the webquests and how to create one.
     We also were instructed on being able to detect viruses. Some of the signs are weird sounds or random music popping up,corrupted or lost files, and a program or file that does not work properly. Because teachers are not normally responsible for fixing these types of problems they should alert their school administrator of the problem as soon as possible.
     Next we talked about ethics. Computer ethics involves making sure that the computer is used only for edification purposes and not to harm others or to interfere with others work. Computers are also not to be used for stealing or lying. All of this may sound like common knowledge however there have been many to get themselves into trouble because of these types of issues. As a teacher, whether we like it or not, we are held to higher moral standards than the average person due to the impact the have on our students. In our personal lives and inside of the classroom it is our responsibility to make ethical decisions in all we do.
