Media Literacy with Julie Smith

 I just watched another great webinar online ditch summit. Julie Smith presented a great worshop on Media Literacy and the ever changing media world our students live in. She really made me think about how I work in the cybersmart curriculum we have and how our students world online and how they connect and relate. Our students live in a short form video world of flashy and exciting quick videos. Are we helping, coaching, and supporting them to understand the context? We need to stop worrying about the content and talk about the process. I also learnt what Smishing is, text message phishing the key topic is missed connections. We need to be teaching coping skills and how to deal with the ever changing tech world and how to keep themselves safe. Learn about the laws, the small print and rules of apps and games they are signing up to. How to self track, and use google reverse image search. A great hour of thought provoking and good questions to think about.
