With instruction moving online, how safe and secure is your technology program?
Technology is often just the first line of defense. Every technology program should have the means to filter content and meet CIPA requirements . However, basic technology can become ineffective unless staff and IT managers learn more about students' online activities and behavior.
In this session, you will learn how to develop effective and enforceable programs to encourage students to use technology wisely, appropriately and to the best advantage for their education. Topics covered include giving students responsibility with their online freedom , meeting government regulations and the importance of monitoring and reporting to ensure proactive enforcement of district acceptable use policies.
This session will share Duval County's effective forensic approach to policy and enforcement including:
- The importance of using a log-in system to set policy and reduce incidents
- Policies and procedures required to ensure student safety and keep kids on task
- Allowing students to correct online behavior
- What defines intentional misuse of technology and how to prove intent
- What steps are taken when a student , teacher or staff willfully breaches the AUP
