Use of New Web Tools Online communication is critical to our students’ learning of 21st Century Skills and tools such as blogging and podcasting offer an authentic, real-world vehicle for student expression. Again, as educators, our primary responsibility to students is their safety.

Do not, under any circumstances, agree to meet someone you have met over the Internet. ● Any personal blog a staff member creates in class is directly linked to the class blog which is typically linked to the staff profile, and therefore must follow these blogging guidelines.

Therefore, anywhere that login is used (posting to a separate personal blog, commenting on someone else's blog, etc.), the account should be treated the same as a school blog and follow these guidelines. Comments made on blogs should be monitored and - if they are inappropriate – deleted. ● Never link to web sites from your blog or blog comment without reading the entire article to make sure it is a...
