DIGI KNOW...
Digital Citizenship/Responsibility
Online Safety is the focus of this first entry in the Digi Know series. Look for articles related to other digital citizenship topics in future newsletters.
Online Safety
So much of what we do today involves the use of technology. Our children have never known a world without it. Just like we find ways to protect our kids at home, at school, and in our communities, we can take steps to keep our kids safe while they are online.
The National Center for Exploited Children suggests the following as things we can do to promote online safety.
Place the computer and digital devices with Internet access in a family room or other high-traffic area of your home.
Keep the lines of communication open with your children. Include online safety in your discussions.
Set limits on the sites your kids can visit and on the time they spend online.
Invite your kids to show you what they like to do online.
Learn who your kids are connecting with via email, instant messaging, webcams, social networking, and online gaming.
Set rules for these activities and monitor all technology with Internet access including cell phones, laptops, and gaming devices.
For more information about online safety, we recommend the following resources:
Common Sense Media - Help Boost Kids’ Safety, Privacy, and Security
