I am extremely passionate about technology and implement it where possible in my Reception/ Year 1 class. Before students had the opportunity to use ICT we participated in a lesson about digital footprints and internet safety. Students went on information hunt following animal footprints. Under each footprint students found information about the animal characters. Students then had to decide if it was safe to share online or not. Students found that Students were thoroughly engaged and learnt about safe and responsible use online.

To deepen understanding of how my students could be affected if they were to use ICT in an unsafe manner, I decided to undertake an online safety course called Connect Ed. The program is aimed at adults including parents, teachers and people interested in learning more.This evidence demonstrates my ongoing concern about using ICT safely, responsibly and ethically. If I am able to use ICT safely, responsibly and ethically myself this will enable me to teach my students to do the same. A link to the Connect Ed Certificate can be found by clicking on this link.
