Internet Safety Issues

The internet is a great place to find all sorts of information; however some have taken advantage of the freedom we have to put different things up. One simple spelling mistake can lead someone to a dirty website, instead of the original site they were looking for. I personally, am not very informed of the different kinds of internet safety programs to use in classrooms. I am also not aware of what kind of internet safety rules my teacher has. The classroom does not have any extra computers for students (only one for the teacher). When the students need a computer for a project the class will go to the computer lab. I have only been with the students once while they were in the computer lab. The teacher had given them several websites that they could go to to look up the information they needed for their geography project. I am excited to learn a little more about this topic so that I can help my students be safe on the internet for whatever we may be doing as the internet is such a great tool.
