Looking for outstanding resources dealing with Internet safety for k-8 students. Presos, sites, info, ideas, whatever you've used or would suggest. I'm looking to build a district wide presentation on the topic as well as adopt/create a curriculum for my district. Thanks for any help you might be able to provide.
Also, take a look at our Directory of Cybersafety Education Agencies which contains links to over 80 education/governement/nonprofit groups involved in cybersafety education.
How about using anecdotes taken from self experience and adapted to the public... I've tried this exercice and came up with the following presentation (not made for kids but thanx for feedback) :
Erik,
I have used the iSafe program. Their resources are quite good. Recently I purchased a copy of Adina's Deck, a video with scenes about teens handling this topic ($200) and attended a workshop with Katie Koestner from http://www.campusoutreachservices.com/resources-k12.html. They have some resources for sale right now for $50 3 DVDs, one of which is a book in .pdf format about the statistics. I also maintain a blog of resources for parents at: cfpmsparent.blogspot.com . This came about after I did several programs for our district PTA groups. Enjoy!!
