When you have a minute, read this important and insightful article by Laura Smith.  I think she is absolutely right in her assessment of this issue.  Should students be held to standards regarding how they use the Internet?  Certainly.  Should teachers be cautious and ever-alert?  Yes, of course.  But once safeguards are in place, students need to use the available online tools under the guidance of educators who can teach them to be responsible online citizens.

    Jim Bower, founder of Whyville, has left an interesting response on my blog. I have support!

    I got in touch with IT today to see about gaining an authorized override permission so that I can get into the site here at school and really get the whole experience before I take it to the next level. I’m keeping my fingers crossed.
