Through Blogging, students have the opportunity to learn about appropriate online behaviours in an authentic and supervised setting.
Guideline to keep students safe when blogging:
- Students' first name, work, class and grade MAY be included on the blog(s)
- Students' surname, address, email address, phone number, specific plans, date of birth and other personal information WILL NOT be included on the blog(s)
- ALL comments have to be screened and approved before they are included on the blog(s)
- ALL comments must be polite, respectful and courteous
- Students will be encouraged to comment on other class / students blogs with teacher / parent supervision
- Parents who leave comments are asked to use their first names so their children cannot be identified. Eg, Please identify yourself as "Jane - Sally's mum" rather than "Jane Brown - Sally's mum"
- Others' work, images, music or videos will not be used without permission and attribution
- Parents are asked to proofread comments and posts that students write on blogs at home.
