Internet Safety

Website:



Many people have concerns about Internet Safety, so I have found a web site that gives you information about how safe your information is online. This website tells you how safe your medical records are. How to keep your credit safe since it has all the information someone need to steal your identity. It even tells you how safe your government information is i.e. your social.

with this website i think the writers are credible. All the info was mixed in from new to old so it gives a range of knowledge. anyone doing research can you this website fully because it has information on tons of identity safe questions.

Podcast:

This podcast/video that i found talks about child safety on the Internet. The Professor says that the Internet can be a way to bully called cyber bullying. It says that to keep your child safe and keep them from doing wrong is to keep the computer in a common room. the computer should be able to be seen at all time so you know what you child is doing. they say you should also have the skill to be able to use the Internet yourself.

i think that this information is up to date for that reasons that internet safety in maybe not new but is in a way. With the sources i gave i think this does help for the research and to give a person ways to stay safe. And I think anyone could use this information If they wanted to.

Article:

The article that i found talked about a teacher helping her students understand Internet safety. She had them think about what information they wanted to put up but found they don't know how to distinguish between public information and private. She also had them think about the things they posted before they did to see what type of message they wanted to put out to people. All these things help protect a persons image and identity.

The author i feel is a credible source since it is posted on edutopia. It's new and up to date so that anyone can understand and you this information to any research on Internet safety.
