Cybersmart – Design a Playground

In today’s Cybersmart lesson with Mr Hughes we put into practice heaps of the different skills we have been working on.

We used the pens, clipart, and the shapes to plan and design our ULTIMATE playgrounds. Check out the work these students did below.

My Favourite Blog Post by Te Whetū

In Cybersmart we picked our favourite blog post. This is a post we are proud to share on our blog. Te Whetū chose her post about Ngā Whetū o Matariki. She took a screenshot of her post and recorded why this is her favourite post.

Before you listen can you guess why this is Whetū’s favourite post? Let us know in the comments.

Copyright laws and t-shirt designs

Today in Cybersmartwe learned about copyright law and attribution. To use someone else’s work, you have to have their permission, or it must be free to use. For this task we designed three different t-shirts.

  • The first one was from Google images, and would not be able to be printed because of copyright.
  • The second one was from the explore tool. It could be printed, but only with attribution.
  • The third one we created ourselves, which means we can print it if we wanted to.

Scams and Phishing – Cybersmart Challenge

Today in Cybersmart we learned about the importance of looking at emails, websites, pop-ups and messages very carefully. Scams and phishing sites and emails aim to take your data and personal information. You can try the challenge here for yourself.
