Introduction to Media and Information Literacy - Policies, Security, Netiquette

Policies, Security, Netiquette

Today we learned about different policies, securities, and netiquettes online.

Our lesson is divided into to two; Edmodo's Acceptable Use Policy and appropriate online behavior. These parts simply tell the acts that a person should and should not do online. 

The actions that a person should not do include the violation of any law or regulation, harassment or threatening of other people, jeopardizing the security of accounts, and steal other's properties.

The actions the a person should do include thinking before sharing, being polite, speaking up, adjusting the privacy settings of one's account, keeping information private, and being cautious on visiting websites.
