Activity 4: Legal and ethical contexts in my digital practice

-
Ethical and Legal Issues and Decision Making Practices:  l'm using (Rolfe, 2001)'s self reflective model for an ethical dilemma that occurred when I was the year 9 Dean.  Helton and Ray (2005) mention unethical scenarios experienced by teachers, for me this situation involved school and law policies, and student accusations. The “What”: A student was being bullied online via social media.  I followed the school's protocol for a restorative session to address the online bullying. I took proper documentation notes and filled incident reports. Parents, guidance counsellors, and the tutor teachers were notified of the situation. Unfortunately I was placed in an ethical dilemma with a revised New Zealand law against online bullying . From the Beehive.Gov site (2017) Ms. Adams is quoted as saying “The Harmful Digital Communications Act made it illegal to send messages and post material online that deliberately causes a victim serious emotional distress,” .

Activity 6: Contemporary trends in New Zealand Step 1 (What): The one trend that is most relevant is the impact of digital learning.  Within the Mathematical field the amount of changes from the old style of pen and paper/route learning is something of the past.  The Ministry of Education site has stated that a focus on the "influence of digital technologies across all aspects of education" should be a trend to focus on. The growing impact of desmos, geogebra, and NZgrapher are a few visual Mathematical digital learning tools that are being used in NCEA assessments at our school.  Being able to stay up to date and build on this trend is of major importance in order to stay relevant within an evolving digital world.   Another trend that I would like to come back and focus on would also be the development of personal skills that Daggett (2014) was speaking about. Step 2 (So What): Career readiness data from the ACT's national studies has stat...
