Parents & Teachers

Parents and teachers sometimes struggle to know what online behavior is okay and what can be problematic. Is it safe to share photos? How can students share classwork safely? Will online exams invade the privacy of our home? What will a social media or online learning website do with our information? Can they be trusted? How can we be sure?

Being able to guide youngsters means first finding reliable information about privacy laws, cyber hygiene, and what risks and unintended consequences can occur from online activity. Informing ourselves is the first step to being cyberaware and equipping ourselves to make sound, well-informed decisions. These resources are a good starting point.
