There are a variety of ways to implement the Internet Smarts program in your classroom.
Online Case Studies - First browse through your selected case study online, and then print out and read or browse through the teacher guide so you know how the lesson flows. Afterwards, your students can work in groups or individually on computers with Internet access. Each teacher guide provides discussion questions along with a step-by-step guide to the lesson. Throughout the lesson there are discussion points and opportunities to break the students into smaller groups.
