Concerns about Ethics for Online Teachers

Precautions must be taken for the kids' safety when it comes to the online educator. There are other ways to accomplish this, but these seem like the ones that would work best. Preserving student communications' privacy, student data, and personal data. FERPA-compliant, safe platforms should be used for all instructional purposes (Feeney, S., & Freeman, N, 2015). Make sure that all student data is safely and securely stored.

Prior to disclosing any student information or work online, get express consent. Granting equal access to online tools and assistance to all students and taking into account their various learning requirements. Recognize the existence of the digital divide and make an effort to offer students with restricted internet access offline options or assistance. Online instructors must carefully assess the particular ethical problems they face (Feeney, S., & Freeman, N, 2015). Proactive methods to deal with. By putting these tactics into practice, educators may provide an online learning environment that is secure, welcoming, and egalitarian while upholding the highest standards of professional ethics and academic integrity and respecting the interests and rights of every student.

Learning and Enjoyment

There are a lot of facets in the realm of social media. My experience has taught me that I can teach or learn about social media use. I've had to share input from previous educational experiences about things I've learned or want to learn. I currently use Instagram, for instance, to de-stress from the outside world. I like scrolling through adorable pet photos and watching videos. I don't post anything on Instagram; I use it to unwind and take in other people's content. Social media can be utilized for several purposes, including informational purposes, amusement, product sales, and spiritual uplift. Which I may say I find enjoyable. As I've previously stated, social media may be utilized for education. Using social media sites like YouTube and Instagram has taught me a lot. Two examples are trying a new recipe or learning to utilize software I'm unfamiliar with.

Week 1 Reflection

  I have learned much more than I thought I knew about Web 2.0. This week has been an eye-opener, showing me that I need so much more and would like to learn more.  As a school counselor student, social media or Web 2.0 can help enhance the knowledge and guidance I provide. I do not know everything about social media and have been reluctant to get involved in many of it for personal reasons. However, knowing there are safety nets, and I can just explore and improve my learning, I am willing to try.  I have been accustomed to using Instagram for entertainment and YouTube for learning and relaxation. A while back, I set up a Facebook account to stay connected with church members, but I needed to set myself away from it just for my mental health. However, having communities and networking opportunities is a way to stay connected and learn from one another.

  I've completed my first week of blogging. I never would have thought to try something like that in this class. But the first week went well, and things will improve over time. It is a fun approach to learning about other people's perspectives on various issues. I've enjoyed expressing my views on many subjects and watching how it all turns out, and so far, I'm happy with the outcome. Blogging can serve as a tool for both teaching and learning, depending on the user and the content being shared. Additionally, blogs can be used for amusement. I finished my research on blogs and why people use them last week. Seeing how others felt and the reasons behind their blog choices was fascinating.
