Safe in Cyberspace?

Guidelines for Teaching Responsible Use

Student Projects

Personal Website Safety - Students review examples of private identity information and recall the safety rule about giving out such information in cyberspace. They also explore some students' personal Web sites, evaluating how well each protects or reveals private identity information.

Personal Web Sites

Personal Web sites provide a great opportunity for people who want to publish their writing, photography, artwork, or display their computer programming skills.

The audience is anyone—and maybe everyone— in cyberspace. Before including private identity information on a Web site, talk it over with your parents or guardian. To be safe, never give your last name—especially if you choose to show a photo of yourself. Instead of a photo, you might show a drawing of yourself. If you want E-mail from people who visit your site, use an address that does not reveal your last name.

Visit and evaluate some personal Web pages.
