Cyber safety is such an important issue today, especially in schools. While the Internet offers so many opportunities, it also can be a dangerous place for children at times. Bullying and inappropriate content are becoming more and more relevant today. For my poster, I wanted to create a poster that would provide questions that students can ask themselves. It is designed to be a sort of self-check to enhance awareness in the minds of young people who spend a lot of time on the Web. When I am a teacher, I want to encourage safe and appropriate use of the Internet so that students can enjoy the benefits of being connected. I would share with parents my classroom rules for web use and encourage them to implement similar measures at home. I would encourage them to ask the questions at home as well. Since cyber bullying is such an issue, I think that monitoring the computers that students are using, helping them be aware of when a situation may become a bullying situation, and teaching them the tools to know how to respond.
