Artifact # 7- Cyber Safety Presentation

Overview

The next artifact that I would like to introduce is my Cyber Safety Presentation that I created for

my class in technology. In this course, we created a Cyber Safety presentation that we were expected to

attach to our Weebly website to help educate students on the importance of cyber safety. With the drastic

shift to a technological world, students need to be educated on the risks of using the web. With an

increase in the use of social media, students need to know how to protect themselves from being a victim,

as well as how to not be a bully themselves. This presentation was created using Prezi, and it serves as a

quick reminder to students to understand how to use the internet and social media wisely.

Connection to Standards

INSTAC Standards

The New York State Code of Ethics for Educators are broken down into 6 principles. The

purpose of these principles is to provide a public statement of principles and expectations that help to

guide an educator throughout their career. For the purpose of this artifact, I would like to connect

INSTAC standard # 1: Learner Development. This standard is important and relates to this artifact as it

helps students development in the area of technology, social media and overall cyber safety.

NYS Code of Ethics for Educators

The New York State Code of Ethics for Educators are broken down into 6 principles. The

purpose of these principles is to provide a public statement of principles and expectations that help to

guide an educator throughout their career. For the purpose of this artifact, I would like to attach standard

# 2, which states the importance implementing programs or areas of awareness in this case, to human

development. Students need to understand the implications with using the internet and social media sites,

as well as the risk factors that could hinder their development if not used cautiously.
 Ontario Teacher Ethics

The Ontario Teacher Code of Ethics are important to the field of education as they help identify

the different qualities of an educator. I have chosen to align the ethic of Care with tis artifact because by

showing your students that you care, I believe that you can help establish all the other ethics. By creating

a cyber safety presentation, I am showing them that I care about their overall well-being.

CAEP/ISTE Standard

The ISTE standards are broken up in to 7 different standards that relate the student. I would like

to connect this artifact with standard # 2: Digital Citizen. According to this standard, Students should

know and understand their responsibilities while living in the digital world. This artifact on cyber safety

that I have created serves to educate students on how to be aware of the risks of technology and the cyber

world.

ILA Standards

The International Literacy Association has broken down its categories into 7 standards. The ILA

standards help define the importance of literacy development and usage in the classroom. I would like to

connect standard #5 to my presentation on Cyber Safety. By creating this Cyber Safety Presentation, I

have aimed to meet the needs of learners in the digital world by educating them about safety in the cyber

world.

CEC Standards

The Council for Exceptional Children created standards that help support and define the responsibilities
that educators have for exceptional children. The CEC standards are broken down into 12 standards, and
for the purpose of this artifact, I would like to include standard # 7, which states, “protecting and
supporting the physical and psychological safety of individuals with exceptionalities” (CEC). This
presentation aims to support all students, including students with exceptionalities, for the safe use of
internet and social media
