1. Joined base groups and talked about highlights from the video “Growing Up Online” Main points · Ryan committed suicide from cyber bullying and he went onto websites such as one that told him what the best way for him to commit suicide was and another showed him how to tie a noose. We also discussed where his parents were and what kind of a relationship he had with them. There was a kid who Ryan talked to online and Ryan told him today was the day and the kid told him its about time. · There was an overbearing mother. She wanted to be involved with everything and her kids did not like it. Her son got in trouble for drinking and going to a rock concert, and she took action on him and letting all of the other parents know what happened. · Autumn took almost pornographic pictures of herself and her parents made her delete them all, but after a while the supported her in it. We discussed what we thought about the parents and there was a lot of astonishment that the parents let her do it and were supporting it. 2.

4. Walk through technology integration model · Phase 1: TPACK- She didn’t Have much content knowledge or technology knowledge. She was just throwing food at them. She did realize she needed to change something which is a good start. · Phase 2: Kind of like RAT- She had the idea to have buddies from a different country to experience from interacting with them. This is a very good idea and step in the right direction. She would also have to interact with the teacher and increase her content knowledge and technology knowledge because obviously they are using computers to communicate. 5.
