Think first.
• If you wouldn’t
want your
mother to read
or see it, don’t
post it.

12. Use common • What happens on the
sense. web does not stay on
the web.
• Before you post, ask
yourself, “Could this
potentially get me into
trouble, fired, or
sued?”

13. Know your policies.
• Acceptable Use Policy
▫ AR 6161.1:Internet users are expected to behave
legally, responsibly, and ethically in accessing
educational resources…

14. Know your policies.
• Professional Conduct
▫ It is strongly recommended that teachers, school
administrators and all other employees not
communicate directly with students or list WS/FCS
students as “Friends” on personally administered
pages of social networking sites, unless the student is
the employee’s
child, grandchild, sibling, cousin, niece or nephew.

15. Teach Digital Citizenship
• If we do not teach teachers and students how
to use technology and the Internet
appropriately, we risk their safety and their
future.
