MO.2 Understand Online Access

Differences between Wi-Fi and cellular data

In My Life

I can save data usage by connecting to trusted Wi-Fi when it is available.

In My Work

I can turn off "auto connect" on my personal device while at work.

In My Education

I can use the public library's Wi-Fi when I am running low on cellular data.

As a Teacher/Trainer

I can consider creating online assignments and sharing online learning resources that are less data intensive for students who access the internet using data plans.
