There are 3 things that I will abide for when I am using this technology in my classroom. The students will need to understand that they will use technology resources productively and responsibly for school-related purposes and avoid using any technology resource in such a way that would disrupt the activities of other users.
Also, they need to understand they will not be allowed to access files, software and/or other resources without the owner's authorization. Only the ones the teacher gives access to.
The use of chat, wikis, blogs will be under supervision and must be used responsibly.
The most important thing is that I need to model the proper behavior using this new tools and then supervise when my students are using them. Once I put in place the correct procedures and expectations they will be able to use technology in the classroom in a safe environment.
You are almost there. Keep up the good work!
