Chapter 7: Online Safety and Security

The best thing about this chapter  is the number of web sites mentioned that will help teachers not only understand copyright and blog & wiki issues, but allow them to use specific sites designed for classroom use.

It is obvious that adults view the internet more as a tool while teens view the internet as a place to hang out with their peers--and while they "may" understand copyright in principle, they don't let the rules stand in their way.

I was also left wondering if our district's AUP has been undated to take in these web 2.0 tools.
