Cyber Safe with Mrs Ogilvy


Today Mrs Ogilvy came from the National library to talk to the year 8's about cyber safe. Mrs Ogilvy was the partner of the teacher in LS1. She taught us some really interesting ways on how to search faster. She talked to us about using key words and how google is not a machine so it can't understand everything you are typing or wanting. The next thing she taught us was  how we can rely on the internet. We used the C.R.A.A.P test to help us out on this. She also showed us two very helpful websites that we could use instead of google. These 2 websites were really helpful as we don't have to attribute the image. The 2 websites were Kids info bits, and Britannica. We then had to come back and teach the Year 7's what we had learnt at cyber safe in the library. I really enjoyed this as we got to learn some new tricks and some new websites.

We had some awesome learning in this session Nesi! The sites Mrs Ogilvie showed us had so much information. Remember to use the hints about key words that she shared with us when you are searching for information :)

I'm glad to hear you found the session helpful Nesi. Enjoy using Britannica and Kids Info bits databases for your research :-)
