Helping you Learn, Create, and Share on your device in smart and clever ways.
Cybersmart learners are at home in a digital world:
Understand and demonstrate responsible use of their device as described in the Kawa of Care Responsible Use Student Agreement
Confidently navigate and harness their device and learning applications
Are mindful that being Cybersmart is staying up-to-date with our Cybersmart learning.
To make the most of their Chromebook or iPad and Google Apps, Smart Learners follow the Kawa of Care and learn to use their device confidently and in clever ways to Learn, Create, Share. While each Cybersmart category has specific learning outcomes, how teachers engage learners will be in response to the school community and interests of their learners.
To empower learners it is critical that learning sites are visible and accessible and that learners are able to confidently navigate the site to access learning. Be cognisant of the vocabulary used to describe actions and tools. Be consistent when using specific terms and encourage learners to do the same.

Google has partnered with the educators at Pear Deck to create custom, interactive presentations and vocabulary flashcards to accompany the Be Internet Awesome curriculum.
We recommend previewing lessons and considering how best to use with your learners. Because lessons are created using Google Slides they can be copied and repurposed in response to your learners. Copies can also be used independently of the Pear Deck app.
