= E-Safety and Fair Use =


 * Identify (5 minimum) age/grade appropriate websites and lessons related to internet safety, digital citizenship, and/or copyright/fair use. Tell when, why, and how you would use each. **


 * 1) [|Disney's Surfswell Island]: This website is all about what kind of information is okay and not okay to give out to people on the internet. Going through Indiana Jones type activities, children will learn all about internet safety. Teachers could use this website to teach or introduce internet safety. Students will even get a certificate of completion if they complete all the activities. Students could use this multiple times a year for a reminder on safety.
 * 2) [|Privacy Playground]: This takes you on an adventure with the three little pigs. Their bad decisions with online privacy run them into problems with the big bad wolf. Are they able to be saved from the wolf? Teachers can have students go through the interactive story to help save the pigs.
 * 3) [|Woogi World]: This is an online community for students. It is a great training website for teaching students about online chatting and how to be safe when using technology. There is also information about how to use technology to support balance in children's lives. There are many different topics along with internet safety, such as math, science, and literacy. Teachers could use this for any subject and have parents monitor their page through the parent section of the website.
 * 4) [|Webonauts]: Students will have to see what it takes to graduate from the Webonauts Internet Academy. Students take missions throughout this internet school. Each mission gives students clues about which websites are safe to go on and not giving out your password. Teachers could use this as a way to introduce the idea of internet safety and use to assess whether or not the students actually understand.
 * 5) [|Hectors World:] This is a resource made for younger children to introduce the idea of internet safety and digital citizenship. It is centered around sea animals that help guide children through the animated episodes. There is numerous resources for parents and teachers as well. This would be a great resource for younger students to have an introduction to internet safety.
