Grade 6M Essential Agreements for the eLearning Project

Grade 6M eLearning Project using email and Blogger.com
We agree to abide by the following essential agreements below:

1. Never put your phone numbers, full name or house address in your blogs.

2. Always use your best manners (netiquette – internet manners) when posting messages on your friend's blogs and using emails.
3. Tell your parents and Mrs Jane or Ibu Maytha if you get any strange comments posted on your blog or sent to you by email that you don't understand or make you feel uncomfortable.
4. Never tell anyone your password (except Mum and Dad! - they should know)
5. Remember to keep safe on the Internet by trashing spam without opening it or emptying your bulk folder regularly.
6. The information on the Internet can be true and false so don't believe everything - use your own inquiry skills by asking other people and checking your sources.
7. Always ask Mum and Dad first before going on line.
8. Only post free animations and images. Make sure that you don't use something from a CD unless it is a free image. You don't want to break copyright!
9. Write using your own words - don't copy and paste! Always include an alphabetical bibliography.
10. Consider carefully what personal photos you publish on your blogs as the Internet can be accessed by anyone.

Failure to follow these agreements will lead to the following consequences:
· A hard warning (depending on the severity of the action)
· Out of the eLearning program.
· Termination of the whole eLearning program.
