A Great Guide on Teaching Students about Digital Footprint ~ Educational Technology and Mobile Learning

A Great Guide on Teaching Students about Digital Footprint ~ Educational Technology and Mobile Learning | iPad Lessons | Scoop.it

Have you ever Googled yourself ? Have you ever checked your virtual identity? Do you know that you leave a digital footprint every time you get online? Do you know that whatever you do online is accumulated into a digital dossier traceable by others ? These and several other similar questions are but the emerging tip of the sinking iceberg.One that is packed full of concerns related to issues of our online identity and privacy issues.

Not an iLesson but as access to iPads and mobile devices are becoming more and more prevalent - worth including this discussion.

Just happed upon this priceless gem - you get 5 GB of storage FREE just for signing up (and another 2 GB for tweeting them after you create an account).    

 

Looks very similar to Dropbox but offers much more initial space. (7GB which is basically half of a 16 GB iPad). Realize this is not an iLesson but might be a perfect student e-portfolio, workflow solution, or place to store pics/videos).    https://copy.com?r=BnkhQi

Lisa Johnson 's curator insight, March 26, 9:19 PM

iPad in Education For Dummies is now shipping from Amazon for $13.65. I might be a little biased as some of my iLessons were included in the resource... BUT I think it is a very thorough and useful purchase.

A little more info...

1. It's a book for all levels: The book is a part of the very popular "for Dummies" series of books - hence the title. The book is however written for anyone interested in the use of iPads for educational purposes - whether beginner or advanced, teacher or parent, administrator or in-class educator.

2. It's primarily about education: The book really should have been titled, "Education using iPads" rather than "iPads in Education". Most Dummies books tend to be how-to manuals but this is primarily a book about education and focuses on the use and integration of iPads into 21st century learning initiatives. Yes, you will learn how to use iPads but it will be within the context of educational goals and objectives that prepare our students for life in the modern world.
