We had an awesome and informative assembly today with Lori Getz. We chatted afterwards and I made a list of some student ah ha moments:
- If apps are open on your phone, they're always listening
- When kids say "watch me", "watch me" to parents, they usually don't really want to watch them
- Everyone who has Internet can access LOTS of your info
- Chain mail is BAD! DO NOT forward it!!
- Turn off comments on Youtube - you don't need feedback, positive or negative
- Your account is your responsibility - don't share your password with anyone but your parents
- When you are planning to use technology for fun, ask yourself ~ do I have time for this now, or there something else I should be doing?
- Do things that help you feel good about yourself like exercising, eating healthy, and doing kind things for others
