Through our own NBCDES school program, we have now incorporated online lessons, online texts, and email is one of our main forms of communications. With our own teaching practices and strategies, we appreciate and cherish the internet for our collaboration with our students. With this in mind, we need to always remind ourselves of the importance of internet safety. We want to encourage our students to see the value in our internet use, but to also remember that safety is very important.
What do you do to practice safety on the internet?
Do you have any questions in regards to internet safety?
