Stanley, Holtage. N.p.. Web. 29 Sep 2013. http://youtu.be/Ln-2m3xAHr8. This video was made on
Nov. 24 2010 by A man named Stanley from Internet Safety.com. Stanley created a profile as
a 13 year old girl in a kids chat room to show the dangers of predators. He got an invite from
a "BigMan 234" who said he was 25 years old and a construction worker. Stanley said that
private conversations in chat rooms are the first steps to children/students being subject to
predators. Suggests enabling "Safe eyes" to block chat rooms.

www.edutopia.org/ - 57k . An Article about behaving oneself online. Some students not only
need internet tools but also lessons on internet behavior. Schools in Virginia requires internet
safety lessons. Texas/Illinois have passed laws encouraging them. Many educators are
working to teach Netiquette. Netiquette are the rules of etiquette that apply when
communicatiing over the computer networks/internet.
Reflection:
- I looked into other school district policies and all of the ones that I checked have Netiquette in it.
- I am in agreement with educating Netiquette to students so they are aware of internet behavior.
