CyberSmarts Webinar for Area Teachers, Feb. 6

Heartland AEA offers the MackinVIA online resources free of charge to area schools. A component of the online resource is the award-winning interactive ebooks, CyberSmarts, which address Internet safety and digital citizenship. CyberSmarts is available through the MackinVIA portal at www.mackinvia.com, then click "Groups." Students can create an avatar and experience learning simulations that provide hands-on experience in navigating the online world in a safe, controlled environment.

Shannon Miller from the Van Meter district will explain the instructional uses and how CyberSmarts can be used in the classroom. We think teachers will be excited about CyberSmarts—not only the content, but the deep level of interaction and thinking that the students will experience. CyberSmarts will help students make good decisions in an online environment.

The webinar will be held on February 6, 2014 from 3:30-4:15 p.m.
