 * Guidelines to Help Pukekohe Hill School Students **
 * Know What to Do As ‘Digital Citizens’ **

These guidelines will help us to stay safe when using ICT e-Learning at school: 1. I can only use the computers for my schoolwork. An adult will check the sites I use to make sure I am learning when using them. 2. I will have an adult present when I am on the Internet including before school. I cannot use the Internet when visiting another class without a teacher being present. 3. I will not use the computers at morning tea or lunchtime without the permission of a teacher and THAT teacher being present. 4. I will ask if I am not sure. 5. I will not be mean, rude, or unkind about other people when using the Internet. 6. When posting comments on a wiki I will discuss school topics thoughtfully. I know my teacher and others read these comments. 7. I will not tell anyone my password.

If I find anything that upsets me, is mean or rude: · Turn off the screen

· Get a teacher or staff member straight away

8. I will not bring any USB drives, CDs, DVDs or software to school unless the teacher gives me permission. 9. I will only put my first name and class email on the Internet, wiki or email. 10. I will only use my first name on published work that is being posted to the wiki. Updated April 2011
