Presentation about
Internet/Texting Safety for Families

Technology can Open
up a whole new world

Help with Homework

Learn all types of new things!

Connect with friends …

…and Meet new people

Keep up with family

But Parents, Family and Teachers
are concerned about Technology

Some Parents Issues
Parents think there is too much
information out on the net
20 years ago, to learn public information you
Had to go to the courthouse, now you can
get info in your pjs with a cup of coffee

Parents think a pervert is out there trying to get their students

Parents are afraid that someone (not their student because their student is too smart)
will show compromising pictures or content about you.

Family is concerned that someone may try to hurt you.

Parents are concerned about unsafe behavior!

200,000 car accidents last year were attributed to texting while driving!

Stay SAFE
Use Common Sense
Be Normal!
Think Long Term
Follow the Rules!

Use Common Sense
Watch what you share!
Don’t share too much
Others can share it
It last for at least 7 years
Usable in a court of law!

Watch who you friend!

Put Online Networking in Perspective:
Don’t spend too much time online – get other things done
Don’t make online relationships more than they are-focus on your everyday real relationships too
Don’t believe everything online or take everything online too serious

Do not Look at Inappropriate Material
These sites are a waste time and can open your account to malware.

What are Teachers’ Concerns?

Technology used for cheating

Buying a paper from an Internet site
Sharing homework answers via IMs, email, text messaging, or any other device
Using a whiteboard to share answers
Cutting and pasting text from the Internet without citing it
Using sample essays from the Internet
Using text messaging to tell somebody else an answer
Programming notes into your calculator
Taking and/or sending a cell phone picture of test material or notes
Video recording lectures with cell phones and replaying during test
Surfing web for answers during a test
Viewing notes on your PDA, electronic calendar, cell phone, or other device during a test
Breaking in to the teacher’s computer files (THIS IS A FELONY)
ALL THESE ACTIONS ARE CHEATING:

Even Unintentional Cheating
IS STILL CHEATING!
“ignorance of the law is no excuse,”
It is not worth it to cheat
