Ethics+and+Safety

=Using Technology in the Classroom: Ethics and Safety= Teachers who are using technology to post pictures of their students, post students' names online, and have student post web content themselves must consider the following issues:
 * **Names:** You probably don't want to use students' full names in order to maintain privacy and anonymity online. Maybe
 * Think about the **collective information available** on your site (e.g. Teacher's name, school, town/city, grade, students' first names, pictures). A combination of too much of this information could potentially be dangerous
 * **Teach students about privacy issues** and appropriate content online. Teach them not to share personal information online.
 * Use functions on blogs and wikis to **limit audience**
 * If possible, consider **moderating** students' writing (that is, change the settings on the blog/wiki so that you must approve student writing before it appears online
 * **Pictures:** Is it appropriate to have any pictures? If so, when and why?
 * Examine your school division's "**Acceptable Use Policy**" for technology
