Implementation:
This project is an Interactive Powerpoint. Students are able to view it for information about Internet safety. I plan to implement this into my classroom by having students view this PowerPoint at the beginning of each school year. Although my district has a class that teaches Internet safety, students can not get enough of the important information. I plan on having students view this project and take the quiz that is imbedded in the PowerPoint as practice for a quiz students need to take in their Design 21 special. After viewing the PowerPoint, I will have a discussion with the class as a whole to come up with do's and don'ts of Internet use for my classroom. Students will have to sign the "Code of Conduct" along with their parents in order to use the Internet in my classroom. The last part of this PowerPoint is an "Internet License." Students will have to take the quiz and print their "license to use the Internet."

Ethical and Social Issues:
This project is all about Internet safety. The ethical and social issues addressed are email safety, netiquette, rules for staying safe, and cyberbullying. Students learn about these issues and are quizzed.

Evaluating Student Computer Literacy:
The way that student's will be evaluated for this assignment is through the assessment that students take during their Design 21 special class. This PowerPoint is designed to be an informative piece that helps to prepare students for that assessment. Also, while the class is discussing important do's and don'ts of Internet use, the students will be evaluated on their contribution and ideas, whether they are accurate and thoughtful.
