Abstract

For all modern-day educators, it is essential to work on their students' media literacy and ensure that students use the internet appropriately to create a fair, integrity-driven classroom environment. Additionally, this monitoring plays a significant role in preventing the detrimental effects of academic dishonesty and, consequently, helps students build a strong academic foundation. This article offers numerous suggestions for achieving these goals, such as fostering growth mindsets, integrating social-emotional learning (SEL), creating a supportive classroom environment, and encouraging goal-setting and self-reflection. Moreover, it proposes several essential skills to navigate the information overload of today’s digital age. The paper also explores the role of media literacy and responsible information usage in modern education. These strategies aim to enhance students’ academic, emotional, and cognitive capacities and prepare them for success in an increasingly interconnected world.
