1 DIGITAL CITIZENSHIP/CYBER BULLYING

2  Privacy - Protect Personal Information  Respect – Avoiding Cyberbullying, Plagiarism, Downloading Music Appropriately.  Self Expression - Create your own ideas.  Responsibility - To self, others and community. Technology is a tool : Just like any tool, its uses and misuses can help or hurt you and others.

3  Protect YOUR personal information and your computer.  Social Security Numbers  Telephone Numbers  Addresses  Passwords  Schools that you attend  Personal Location  Clubs / Organizations you belong to  Use virus protection and avoid scams, phishing, chain letters ‘Share only what you would want your parents or teachers to see – It follows you your whole life.’

4 Respect privacy of others. Posting others’ information or personal pictures is an example of Cyber Bullying. Inappropriate photos may be construed as distribution of pornography. (Felony) This goes not only for the Internet but also cell phones. ‘ Once something has been posted, You can never get it back!’

5  Please play the video Ricardo Story for the students Linked HERE and on Intranet under Wolverine Wed as well.HERE

6  target: a person who is the object of an intentional action  offender: a person who has malicious intent to hurt or damage someone  bystander: a person who does nothing when they witness something happening  upstander: a person who supports and stands up for someone else

7  Escalate: to increase or make more intense De-escalate: to decrease or make less intense

8  Ignore and block the bully. ◦ Offenders often want attention. ◦ Take it away and they may give up.  Save the evidence. ◦ You may need it later for documentation.  Change your privacy settings. ◦ Allow only people you trust to see or comment on your pages.  Tell trusted friends and adults. ◦ Create a support network.

9  Stand up to the offender when appropriate. ◦ If you see something negative, say something. ◦ Make it clear that you think online cruelty is wrong, and tell the offender to back off. (It may be easier to do this if you have good standing with the offender.)  Point out the bully’s motivation to the target. ◦ Comfort the target by explaining that many offenders act cruelly just to gain control, power, or status.  Help the target advocate. ◦ Help the target find friends and school leaders who can help de-escalate the situation. ◦ It’s easier to stand up to cruelty when you are not alone.

10 ◦ Respect others creative works.  Plagiarism: Must give credit to original creator.  Using the works of others’ is “Theft by taking” (the same as stealing from a store).  Example: Downloading an artist’s music to use in YOUR own creative project, and then uploading onto the internet without permission, is illegal and a Federal crime punishable by 1 or more years served in prison (Felony).  How would you feel if you wrote your own song or poem and someone else publishes it and gets the credit and the money?

11  Social Networking is a great way to interact with friends and family. ◦ Keeping journals and using blogs. ◦ Expressing yourself through creative writing, photos and other pieces of works. ◦ However, protect yourself:  Use an “Avatar” instead of your original photo and name.  Never put out pertinent information that may allow someone to steal YOUR identity or allow someone to track you.  SS#, Telephone #, Address, Banking Passwords, etc.

12  Be responsible for your own actions and choices when using Social Networks and the Internet.  Use Common Courtesy & Common Sense.  Give credit where credit is due. Cite appropriately. ‘If it doesn’t feel right, don’t do it!!’  Remember, you represent : ◦ yourself, ◦ your family, ◦ your school ◦ your community.

13 “As Digital Citizens we must empower ourselves to be smart about how we create, communicate, and treat others in our 24/7 digital world as we strive to use technology appropriately.” http://www.digitalcitizenship.net http://www.commonsensemedia.org

14 As a technological society it is our responsibility to provide all users the opportunity to work, interact, and use technology without the interference, destruction, or obstruction by the actions of inappropriate users. As digital citizens we pledge to help create a society of users that strive to use technology appropriately. We will work with others to identify the needs of technology users and provide opportunities to make them effective.
