Hanna was on Cartoon Network when she clicked on an advertisement by accident and saw an inappropriate picture. She didn’t tell her mom or dad. She e-mailed it to all her friends and put it on the internet. Was this a good choice and did she break one of the AUP promises?
Rebecca lost her homework. She saw someone else’s file with there homework done. She printed out that homework without telling the teacher or that person. Did she make the right choices? Why or why not?
Billy made a picture on the computer in school and wanted to print it out. He printed copies out for the whole class but he didn’t ask the teacher if he could. Did Billy make a good choice? Why or why not?
Nicole wasn’t listening to her teacher when the teacher was giving directions. When it was time to work, she didn’t know what to do. So she went on a different site. The site she went on was Youtube. When she was on Youtube, an error popped up. Should she admit what she did and get help with the error? Or should she not?
Amanda was checking her e-mail. She received a message saying, “Give me your address.” Amanda did not know what to do. So she went and told her parents. Did she make a good choice? Explain why.
One night, a guy named Cake went in the arcade and won 1,500 tickets. Then Cake went to another game to play Thin Ice and won 768 points. Because he won the high score, the computer asked him to type his address. Is that a good choice? What would you do?
Soladad was playing on the computer at home. She got an email from a mystery person. The email said, “Come, let’s chat.” Soladad read it, quit her game, and sent an email back asking who they were. They said, “let’s chat and I’ll tell you.” Soladad was curious about who that person was, so she started to chat, but that uknown person still did not tell her who they were. Soladad asked the mystery person if she could go to his/her house. The address was given. Soladad went ahead to the house. Did Soladad make a good choice?
Stacy and Saven were playing a game and they got an email in Webkinz that said, “I want your address.” Stacy was scared to put her address in but she didn’t want to be mean by not answering. So Saven said don’t put it in because they might be a black mailer. Saven said they should just type in that they don’t want to share their personal information. Do you think Stacy and Saven did the right thing?
One stormy night Jimmy went on Youtube.com. He wanted to watch a video. He saw
something cool and he wanted to watch it. So he clicked on it and something popped up
and started asking for his address. He got up and ran to his mommy. He asked his mom if
he should type back. What would you have done if this was you?
Lilly and Max were doing some research for their jungle project. They clicked a link that they thought had lots of information on monkeys. Then, the link required personal information like their names, last names and address. Should they type some of this information on this site? Why or why not?
