Living Your Life. Online

For the last few years we have had a day set aside to do work on Digital Citizenship. This year we changed the format. On two different days we offered 10 half hour sessions that ran 2 times. Students chose the sessions they wanted to go to. They were based on the themes:

• Safe or Sorry
• Real or Fake
• Share a Little or A Lot
• Create/Credit or Steal
• Bully or Protect

We designed sessions to be a mix of conversation and learning something new. Facilitators were mostly from within our school We also asked a few community members and another school.  Here are the resources. We'll be geting feedback tomorrow.

• Script for Adding Multiple Pages to a Google Site

  -- Takes the URL of an existing Google Site and uses a list of students (with email addresses) to generate a page per student.-- Allows you to construct the page titles in the spreadsheet.-- Allows you to position the student pages underneath any page on your site.-- Lets you use standard Sites templates, or specify any custom page template you've created.-- Due to limitations in the Apps Script API, this script DOES NOT use "Page-Level Permissions". As a workaround, all students will be added as top-level editors to the Site.-- Runs entirely from a single UI panel. Super simple to deploy.
