Digital citizenship (7-10)

 Questions 7-10

• Consequences of off-task behaviour in class.

We think that the consequences for off-task behaviour in class should be confiscation of the devices and perhaps a three strike rule. This can be hard to enforce though and if we want this to succeed there will need to be a certain amount of trust.

• Limits on personal work on a device.

 We think that if your using your device properly and effectively you should be able to do as much work as you like on the device. A smart device has many more tools than a pen and paper so therefor children of all ages should be using those tools.

• Charging of devices 

We think that the charging of a device is entirely the responsibility of the person with the device. If the person does not have charger he/she can ask for a charger but cannot force someone to give them a charger or take one without asking.

• Should kids have to power down a certain point 

Yes. We think that if kids are on their devices late at night it will affect their sleep and thereby affect their awareness at school.

"With great power comes great responsibility" - That guy who said that to spider-man 

Digital Citizenship (questions 4-6)

Questions 4-6

• Decorating of devices - can students put any background and homescreen they want?

We believe that students should be able to choose they're own background and homescreen as long it doesn't break any rules or offend any body.

• What will be the limits on photos and movies?

You should never take a photo of someone without their permission because some parents don't want the their child on the internet incase of cyber bullying. So the general rule of thumb should be to just to not take a picture or video of someone else without their permission.

• When can they be on social media and communicating with others?

We think kids should have a meeting with their parents or guardians and decide on a an age that they can communicate with other's and go on social networking programs such as facebook and instagram. Their parents should be able to come up with a reasonable age to go on social networking.

Digital Citizenship (questions 1-3)

Questions 1-3

• Who is responsible for the technology or the device - what does that entail?

We think everyone is responsible for their own devices, you can't always rely on other people for things, so you should have to take responsibility for your own property.

• Who is in charge of accounts and where do they keep their passwords?

You should also be in charge of your own password, if you give all the passwords to one person, first of all, he could at any time get into your personal accounts, second he could also forget the passwords, and now you'd be screwed. If you really need something to make sure you don't forgot your passwords, you could write them somewhere on a sticky note, or save a file somewhere that you could find at anytime. But don't give your passwords to someone else.

• Discuss the idea of password literacies

Their are plenty of ways to make a safe password, we think the safest  technique involves 3 simple steps: 1. choose a sentence that is easy to remember and take the first letter of each word in this sentence. Example: Method to my madness would be Mtmm. 2. Add special characters. Example: !Mtmm# . 3. Customize it to the specific website. For example if it is a password for Facebook the add an Fcb at the end of your password. Example: !Mtmm#Fcb .
