Greenwich Public Schools: Computer Acceptable Use Policy

Fri, 16 Nov 2007 03:50:44 -0000

Comments:

From Jeff Wasserman's school. Well-done, forward-thinking. Parents opt OUT, not IN, to web 2.0.
posted by cburell

Highlights and Sticky Notes:

It is assumed that parents grant their child

Any exceptions to this guideline, available in grades 9-12 only, will be communicated and signed-off by individual parents through Greenwich High School personnel.

Parents may opt out of any use of image/student work by indicating their wishes on this Internet Safety and Acceptable Use Agreement.

Users should never arrange a face-to-face meeting with someone “met” on the computer network or the Internet without a parent’s permission if under 18 years of age.

Speech that is inappropriate for class is also inappropriate for a blog.

One-third of teens claim to experience "cyberbullying"

Tue, 13 Nov 2007 06:56:21 -0000

Comments:

This study is contradicted by another study this year. Where's the truth?
posted by cburell

Highlights and Sticky Notes:

Roughly a third of all teenagers who use the Internet have been subject to some form of cyberbullying, according to a new report by Pew Internet. The telephone survey was conducted on a representative sample of 935 teens in the US between the ages of 12 and 17 and revealed a number of observations about manipulative and bullying activity online. However, despite the fact that so many teens had experienced some level of cyberbullying, two-thirds of the group said that they believed more bullying occurred offline than on.

The level to which teens have been bullied online varies from "slightly annoying" to death threats. One in six (about 15 percent) told Pew that private communications—IM logs, e-mails, or text messages—had been posted publicly by someone else or forwarded around. One middle-schooler told a story about how an IM conversation she had participated in got changed in her disfavor, printed out, and passed around at school so that she "looked like a terrible person." Apparently this kind of online/offline bullying mix is preferred by ego-starved bullies everywhere.

About six percent of teens said that others had publicly posted embarrassing photos of them without their consent as well, with the users of popular social networking sites like MySpace and Facebook suffering from this phenomenon more than others (9 percent of social network users had photos posted of them, versus 2 percent of non-social networkers). Those who post photos of themselves are also more likely to have unauthorized photos of them posted, according to the survey.

Another 13 percent reported that they had been the recipient of a threatening or aggressive e-mail, IM, or text message, and girls are more likely than boys to receive them (15 percent versus 10 percent). Older teens, those 15-17, were also more likely to receive threats than younger teens, with only 9 percent of younger teens receiving threats compared to 16 percent of the older crowd. The older group of girls received the most threats, at 19 percent.

a large majority of survey respondents still said that more bullying occurred offline. Unsurprisingly, though, those who had not experienced cyberbullying were more likely to say that bullying was more common offline than online (71 percent) than those who had experienced some form of cyberbullying (57 percent).

"Bullying has entered the digital age," writes Pew senior research analyst Amanda Lenhart. "The impulses behind it are the same, but the effect is magnified. In the past, the materials of bullying would have been whispered, shouted, or passed around. Now, with a few clicks, a photo, video, or a conversation can be shared with hundreds via e-mail or millions through a web site, online profile, or blog posting."

Study: Fears over kids' online safety overblown

Tue, 13 Nov 2007 06:25:50 -0000

Comments:

Good links to other studies and individual cautionary tales.
posted by cburell

Highlights and Sticky Notes:

Of the over 1,200 students surveyed, only seven percent said that they have been the victims of cyberbullying. That figure is in stark contrast to a report issued a couple of months ago by the Pew Internet & American Life Project. In a survey of 935 teens aged between 12 and 17, nearly a third of them reported that they had experienced some form of cyberbullying.

Three percent of the kids surveyed said that unwelcome strangers attempted to communicate with them online. Two percent said that such a person attempted to arrange an in-person meeting. A miniscule .08 percent of the kids responding to the survey said that they went through with such a meeting without their parents' permission.

In contrast, school administrators believe that social networking sites are a significant cause of problems for students. 52 percent of the districts surveyed said that students being free and easy with personal information online has been "a significant problem" despite the fact that only 3 percent of the students in the same study ever reported doing so. The NSBA notes that there is a similar disparity on the subject of cyberbullying.
