Social Security Numbers Telephone Numbers Addresses Passwords Schools that you attend Personal Location Clubs / Organizations you belong to Use virus protection and avoid scams, phishing, chain letters
‘Share only what you would want your parents or teachers to see – It follows you
your whole life.’
Privacy
Respect
Respect privacy of others.Posting others’ information or personal pictures is an example of Cyber Bullying.Inappropriate photos may be construed as distribution of pornography.
(Felony)This goes not only for the Internet but also cell phones.
‘Once something has been posted,
You can never get it back!’
◦ Respect others creative works. Plagiarism: Must give credit to original creator.
Using the works of others’ is “Theft by taking” (the same as stealing from a store).
Example: Downloading an artist’s music to use in YOUR own creative project, and then uploading onto the internet without permission, is illegal and a Federal crime punishable by 1 or more years served in prison (Felony).
How would you feel if you wrote your own song or poem and someone else publishes it and gets the credit and the money?
Respect, continued:
Social Networking is a great way to interact with friends and family.◦ Keeping journals and using blogs.◦ Expressing yourself through creative
writing, photos and other pieces of works.
◦ However, protect yourself: Use an “Avatar” instead of your original
photo and name. Never put out pertinent information that
may allow someone to steal YOUR identity or allow someone to track you. SS#, Telephone #, Address, Banking
Passwords, etc.
Self Expression
Be responsible for your own actions and choices when using Social Networks and the Internet.
Use Common Courtesy & Common Sense. Give credit where credit is due. Cite appropriately.
‘If it doesn’t feel right, don’t do it!!’
Remember, you represent :◦ yourself, ◦ your family, ◦ your school◦ your community.
