Online Safety

Today’s session was all about online safety and how to keep children safe online. At the beginning of the lesson I didn’t agree with children blogging as the dangers of the internet are quite high. The main dangers being the 3 C’s Content, Conduct and Conduct and that everything you put on the internet remains there forming your digital footprint. Over the course of the lesson I quickly changed my views on children blogging as it gives them the opportunity to express themselves and having seen examples of this in our computing class it proved it can be done in a safe way. Although advances in technology has its risks it is our job as teachers alongside parents to ensure children are safe online.
