digiteen - Digital Rights and Responsibilities - 0 views

  • Those freedoms extended to everyone in a digital world - electronic responsibility for actions and deeds AUP (inside and outside of school) Use online material ethically (citing sources) Report cyberbullies and threats
  • ocially Rights and Responsibilities has a lot of influence over us, and our daily life. Everything we do in our online lives or even just online we have to think if it is within our rights or whether we have the responsibilty to do something. For many of us we found this so hard to do because our rights and responsibilities online are soo very different to them offline, which is why it is importtant for children to incorporate these ideas into their daily lives and at a young enough age for them to adapt to them quickly.

  • You need to be aware of which sites people can gain access to your profile and without your permission. Some examples are: Facebook, MySpace. Beware of sites where people can change your password just by knowing your user name. An itunes account is a good example of where this is the case. If your not sure, test it out for your self by clicking on "forgotten your password?" and seeing whether the new pass word is accepted. If you become a victim of cyberbullying, make sure you contact people responsible for the site. If you join a forum, make should you read through the rules and regulations for members. This can be especially important if the forum is a special interest forum where you may get asked to leave if you post "off topic" mails. Use the Internet respectfully: don't post embarrassing pictures of your friends onto sites without their permission!

    An excellent article to make the case for digital citizenship education, I love the quote at the end that the law "can't take the place of good manners, social norms, and etiquette." Do we think that students just develop good manners on their own? Perhaps manners, norms, and etiquette would much better evolve with multiple generations and ages working together as we discuss and grapple with such issues. This is another excellent article about the changing state of the law and the Internet and includes the precedent that anonymous doesn't really mean anonymous any more - particularly if the anonymous person breaks the law.
