» Would You Please Block? Bud the Teacher
"Ever since we opened up lots more of the Internet in our school district earlier this year, the district has received several requests from teachers and other staff to block resources that are distractions in the classroom. I’ve written a stock response to those requests that I thought might be worth sharing. It’s my hope that their requests and the conversations that come from this response lead to changes in classroom practice."

From Toy to Tool: Cell Phones in Learning: A 21st Century Global Acceptable Use Policy for Schools
While I have often given some suggestions, I recently came across Uni High. Uni is a school in Urbana, Il that has propsed a new, more cell phone friendly AUP. Here is a blurb of the new policy proposal. I think this policy is an excellent example of a policy that can keep structure and restaints around using cell phones inappropriately, while as the same time give classroom teachers the option to use them in their teaching and learning.

Saugatuck Middle/High School Acceptable Use Policy
AUP Philosophy/Vision
Technology is an integrated component in the lives and education of the students and staff. It is also in a state of constant change. Applications and hardware are continually developing. It is the District's responsibility to give access to technology, teach students how to use technology and information access responsibly, protect them from inappropriate content, and assure students use technology responsibly.

We are trying to create an environment that provides guidelines for students and staff to use new technologies in a meaningful way and to embrace them in ways that align to the ISTE National Education Technology Standards for Students.
Technology Use Principles wiki
This is a wiki where you can help define our Technology Use Principles (TUP).
Please take a look at our NEW Technology Use Principles document by clicking on the link on the Side Bar tab.
The new TUP is intended to move us from policies to principles, with the idea being that policies change; principles don’t.
· The new TUP has easy to remember principles - the 3P's – Privacy, Property, and aPpropriate Use.

Forsyth County Schools | AUP Policy for web 2.0
It is the belief of the Forsyth County Board of Education that the use of technology for the purpose of information acquisition, retrieval, manipulation, distribution and storage is an important part of preparing children to live in the 21st century. The Board further believes that a “technology rich” classroom can significantly enhance both the teaching and learning process. This technology includes computer hardware, software, local and wide area networks and access to the Internet. Due to the complex nature of these systems and the magnitude of information available via the Internet, the Forsyth County Board of Education believes guidelines regarding acceptable use are warranted in order to serve the educational needs of students.
newsobserver.com -Raleigh NC| Parents, schools at odds over Internet
Wake County school officials say the Internet is too valuable an educational tool for them to completely bar students from using it at school, even when parents make that request. It's a case of parental rights pitted against what educators say is a skill that students need to know.
"They will not get unfettered access to school computers if parents object," said Bev White, the Wake school system's chief technology officer. "But there are educational situations where a child needs to go on the Internet with supervision."
That approach isn't good enough for Ranee Cloud, a Wake Forest mother who has tried to block her daughter from getting Internet access at elementary school. Cloud filed a grievance that was recently rejected by the Wake school board.
White said it's acceptable for a student to receive Internet access when the teacher is providing supervision. Even though the student can control the keyboard, White said, the teacher should be walking around the room to oversee what's on each monitor.

Every discussion about Acceptable Use Policies either online or at tech conferences, at some point touches on signed forms or implied consent.
School AUP 2.0 | Main / HomePage
Excellent compilation of resources and guidance for developing new AUPs to reflect Web 2.0 uses. "This wiki site will serve as a launchpad to other documents and communities seeking to provide guidance in acceptable use policy development and also as an incubator for ideas related to issues, document structures, new problems and opportunities, and maintenance.
This site invites collaboration among users."
