Standard 4 mentions the importance of copyright laws and intellectual property as well as modeling, advocating, and teaching safe, legal, and ethical use of digital information.. It a crucial part of being a teacher to teach what is right. When using technology in the classroom, it is a vital part of teaching it to make sure we teach copyright laws and teach what is ethical, safe, and legal. Digital information can be very tricky when it comes to copyright laws and what is ethical and not ethical to copy. It is very important that students know how to properly document sources of used data.
Part d of standard 4 mentions developing and modeling cultural understanding and global awareness by engaging with colleagues and students of different cultures using digital-age communication. I interpreted this as using things like some sort of social networking to communicate with people across the world. Allow students to set up some sort of secure social network and as the teacher monitors what they are doing, allow them to meet students from different parts of the world. It is very important for the teacher to stay engage with the students while doing this though. It would be a fun way for students to learn about different cultures from across the world.
