PSA: Private browsing
goals:
To create a Public Service Announcement (PSA) that highlights one of the areas of digital citizenship studied within the course. I decided to focus on the dangers of browsing, either on a PC or on mobile devices, without protecting yourself by either using a VPN or incognito modes that most web browsers have.
practical use:
I think that this turned out really well and I would not hesitate to use it in my classroom. Students (and faculty) would be engaged first and foremost because it stars two teachers that they all know. But the advice here is sound and I would recommend this to any coworker or student, especially some that are not digitally literate and would not think to either get a VPN or turn on incognito mode. In my intro classes, I have students create a PSA and I will be showing this as an example of how to get your point across quickly and clearly and I think any A/V teacher or current events/civics teacher could do the same.
