  • Collaborative rules

    For teachers

     

    - Try to follow the calendar (if you are not going to be able to do it, let your partners know the reasons)

    - Keep personal information personal, don’t upload personal images with personal information such as family name, complete address, phone number, etc. If you do it, keep the page private (only for eTwinners)

    - Try to avoid close-ups of children’s faces or pixelate them

    - Don’t use any tool not allowed for the age of your students (Facebook, Instagram…)

    - Don’t let your students use any tool that you can’t control

    - Be aware of copyright and if you borrow something from someone (images, music, video, etc.) give them the credit, and try to use copyright free resources.

    - Review your students’ wall and their forum entries. You are responsible if they don’t behave and you will need to act.

    - Remind your students to answer the messages they receive

    We analized the students`rules and we discussed about some of them. We also spoke about the Internet dangers and how they must act in case they find something that is not appropriate or that makes them feel unconfortable.

    In Greece we spoke a lot about the netiquette rules especially on

    Safer Internet Day, on the 5th of February, and we celebrated it by drawing pictures!
