Protect our children in cyberspace

Teachers,

Today is World Telecommunication & Information Society Day, and the Sunday Star today (17/5//09) carries a useful section which I would like to bring to your attention:

It says: The Internet is good, use it wisely. We need to protect our children / students from the dangers and threats in cyberspace:
a) cyber-bullying
b) pornography
c) violence
d) racial abuse & hate
e) online gaming & addiction
f) online fraud & deception

Now with our school blog and online forum, it will give all of us the freedom to express ourselves. However, we need to be respectful of others and remember not to humiliate or embarrass anyone. Instead, if we need to say something, do so in a constructive manner, using polite language and which will help solve problems instead of create more problems.

Please read more about it in the Sunday Star and it is definitely an useful reminder to all of us.
HAPPY BLOGGING EVERYONE!
