web search strategy
Is it important to have a strategy when you search the web?
I think that a strategy is needed when you are searching the web because it organizes you and you site your work.
I have used Wikipedia for a school project and i was not sure that it was a proper source of information so i only used it for pictures.
Digital Citizenship
A good citizen of the digital world is careful of what they say online and making sure it doesnt offend people. In order to help us become better digital citizens our school could make a class explaining how importaint it is to be aware of your posts. I pledge to be a responsible digital citizen by double checking my posts and making sure none are harmfull.
Ethics
My Gramma is a very ethical person. Whenever there is something wrong she always asks herself, “What would Jesus do.” By saying this it leads her down the right path in becoming a better person. An example of an unethical person would be a friend talking about you behind your back. People behave unethicaly online by using pronouns to talk about a obvious and specific person.
