Reflection
Are you and is your school e-safe?
Are there things that you could improve upon and change?
Add your thoughts to the forum and ask how others have made changes. Can you adopt any ideas that are already there?
It’s important to learn from students at this key stage, many of whom may be more confident than you in using some of the new applications and interactive environments. Take the time to ask your students how they use some of the new social media to aid them in their homework and study.
