  3. Why Take this on in Schools? • Social media is here to stay • Whose responsibility is it to teach students safe & responsible use? • Who is supporting the child behind the closed bedroom door?

  4. Dangers • Cyberbullying • Inappropriate pictures, posts or messages - damage to reputation • Privacy – marketers • Safety – location based information • Predators

  5. Other Concerns • Kids need to be older than 13 to have a profile, but younger kids set up accounts anyway. • Despite privacy controls, no guarantees of privacy -- anything can be cut, pasted, and sent. • Kids can tag their friends; this can violate their friends' privacy.
