=Essential Question: What is your Responsibility in the Online World?=





Acceptable Use of Technology Adapted from original by Lisa Parisi

Before your child is allowed access to the computers in our classroom, he/she needs to review this policy with you and return it with your signatures. The very first technology lessons they will receive in school will cover online safety.

I am responsible for my actions when using technology equipment and the Internet. I am responsible for saving my work in the appropriate network folder. I will not view, update or delete the work of other students. I will not copy the work of other students or information I find online and pretend that I wrote it. I will not share personal information such as my name, address, phone number or school online. I will respect the environment and not waste paper or printer ink by printing too much. I will ask an adult first before printing. I will respect the time limits placed on the computers and other electronic equipment available as a work choice. I will take good care of the computers and any other electronic equipment that I use at school. I will not use technology to bully or hurt other people. I will not change the computer's settings of any computer at school. I will tell an adult if my computer displays inappropriate material that is threatening, or makes me feel uncomfortable. I understand that if I misuse technology, I will lose the privilege of using computers and other electronic equipment at school.
