Cyber bullying

Having a MAC has many perks! One of them is called iMovie, which is an application where you can create movies using photos, videos, and sound. There are a great way to make use of technology. iMovie automatically allows you to share the project you created to youtube, as you can see below. The topic we had to create a movie about was cyber bullying, which is becoming very prominate throughout the US. By creating public service announcements, we can make parents aware of this horrible activity that may be affecting their child.

The NETS T standard this acitivity relates most to is:
