PRODUCTS INCLUDED IN THIS BUNDLE:

Description

Students will use technology and problem-solving skills to complete this digital breakout about how to stay safe online and how to be a good digital citizen.

This is part of my growing bundle of Digital Literacy Breakouts. Purchasing the bundle saves you 25%.

This breakout is completed with Google sites. Please make sure that Google sites is not blocked on your school computers. By using Google sites there is very little preparation that needs to be done to use this with your students.

What you need to use this breakout:

Chromebooks, computers, laptops or some type of mobile device. You will need one device for each team. I recommend teams of 2-3 students if possible. The devices must be connected to the internet. A free Google account for you and your students. Scratch paper for students to write down the lock codes while they are working.

What is included:

The breakout is accessed through a Google Site. Students will go to the url for the site to complete the breakout. On the Google Site is the scenario, student directions, links to each of the 3 challenges and a Google form for the students to enter the lock codes. Hints for each of the 3 challenges are located on the Google form where the codes are submitted.

The challenges:

  • Decide what is safe to share online and what is not safe (activity completed in Google Sheets)
  • An online quiz that reviews basics of internet safety including what is a weak or strong password
  • Decode a secret message

VERY IMPORTANT: PLEASE CHECK YOUR DISTRICT’S FILTER. Students will need access to Google Sites to complete the activity. Sometimes a school or district will block Google Sites. Even if Google Sites works on your staff account, it is possible that student accounts are blocked. Please verify this before purchasing. ALL firewall issues that occur are on your end in your school/district restrictions. I cannot troubleshoot. Please contact me if you have any questions.

Important Note: This is not an editable resource.
