Cyber Ethics PDF

In Cyber Ethics, students learn about Netiquette, getting tips and strategies about what is proper and safe etiquette for cyberspace.

This handbook offers young teens strategies for making good choices online and for staying safe, using proper filters and pop-up blockers, using monitored chat rooms, never agreeing to meet an online friend, never giving out personal information or filling out registration forms for online contests, checking with parents before making a financial transaction, not downloading files without permission, etc..

They will read about the do's and don'ts in writing e-mails, in using social networks, in chatting in groups/forums, or on blogs, learning that they have to take responsibility while they are at the computer.

The cyber ethics book will touch on all the other titles in this series, but will also address being ethical about appropriating other people's work for creative endeavors; the notion of being respectful when giving feedback on other people's work; of being courteous, tolerant, among other things, with respect to various cultural sensibilities that they might encounter in cyberspace.
