Start Internet Safety Project

Today we will begin working on the Internet Safety project.  You will be working with a partner on this project, so we are going to discuss how you can make sure that you both have access to the same information using your Google Drive and documents.

Once we complete that we will take a look at the Internet Safety page on the blog.  Here you will find all the information you will need for this project.  You are welcome to do your own search outside of what you find on the blog, but my research has shown me that what is listed here is plenty to help you cover what you will be doing with the project.

You and your partner will need to decide on 4 areas of Internet Safety to present on.  You can choose among these areas to research:

IDENTITY THEFT
PASSWORDS AND PASSWORD PROTECTION
SOCIAL NETWORKING AND USING SELF-CONTROL
RELIABILITY OF INFORMATION FOUND ON WEBSITES
CYBERBULLYING AND/OR HARASSMENT
ACCESSING INAPPROPRIATE WEBSITES (WHAT TO DO)
EMAIL AND/OR PHISHING AND/OR SPAM (PITFALLS AND HOW TO AVOID)

If the Internet Safety page has a link to a website that no longer works, or takes you to a website that doesn't have anything to do with Internet Safety please let me know so I can fix it (or delete it, depending on the situation).
