Tuesday was Safer Internet Day. Alec Couros presents on media literacy. "The presentation covered various topics such as: offensive content (bad taste, sexuality), viral videos & memes, misinformation (satire, hoaxes, scams, phishing), safety & cyberbullying, hate (racism & violence), social networks & privacy. It was very much a survey approach to the topic in hopes that my students will understand the broad scope of related issues." Related: the Media Awareness Network offers new resources on cyberbullying (thanks Clarence Fisher).
