Privacy Playground: The First Adventure of the Three Cyber Pigs 1. What is contained in the site? This website is ran by MNets and is available for teachers to use in their classroom and serves a purpose for children and parents. This website has a game that allows 8-10 year old children to play and understand the importance of privacy. It teaches them how to spot online marketing, spam, and predators. They children will play this game and have a close encounter with a wolf which is suppose to be online marketing, spam, and predators. 2. How would you use this resource in a classroom? As a teacher in a classroom I would use this on a younger grade probably second through maybe fifth grade as the game is acceptable for 8-10 year old children. I would do a unit on using a computers and internet and use this game for learning about the dangers of the internet such as online marketing, spam, and predators. 3. How would you assess student learning based on their use of the site? I would travel around to each individual computer after class discussion of how to play the game to make sure the students understand the game. I would make sure each individual at some point in the game encounters a wolf or online marketing, spam, or a predator in the game and have them raise their hand when they encounter this. I would make sure they know the harmfulness of each and how to avoid this.
