SEIS Responsible Use Policy

Technology has been around for decades and has been improving and developing ever since. Currently, the school board is debating whether or not the students and the staff should participate in “Shut Down Your Screen Week.” This is a national movement where nobody may use any electronic media for an entire week. In our generation now, modern technology is simplifying our lives to make it easier and better. This is the reason why it is almost everywhere. It is in homes, in our work, and in our schools. Although some individuals might argue that too much technology is bad for us, we should not participate in “Shut Down Your Screen Week,” because technology is able to help children become more interested in learning, can improve student’s skills, and it can also make work for teachers easier.

The purpose of this policy is to outline the acceptable use of computer equipment at XYZ Inc. These rules are in place to protect the employee and XYZ Inc. Inappropriate use exposes XYZ Inc. to risks including virus attacks, compromise of network systems and services, and legal issues.

If the office gets new computers the manager needs to make sure the old computers are destroyed in a manner that will not allow anyone to retrieve information from the

To reduce malicious code, SMC will restrict staff from certain networking sites (Hawkins, 2013a). Additionally, SMC will govern policies that discourage downloading files from the Internet and using personal computer information. Another serious threat is the malicious insider. This can be a disgruntled employee or a recently fired employee who still has access to the network system. Prompt removal of privileges is necessary to avoid issues created by terminated malicious insiders. Separation of privileges is a common security tool that helps decrease vulnerability. If one person can alter pay rate and hours worked, another person must review and approve a report before the changes take

I will make parents partners in the process, by sending home the acceptable use policy. I will make technology use contracts that parent and students will sign, that will bind them to use technology appropriately. The contract will explain both the acceptable use of technology and also what unacceptable use of technology is considered, and what the consequence are to violators. Alongside contract I will also ensure that students understand how to use the internet, and how to find quality academic websites. I will help students understand copywriter laws, and when necessary I will check the history on my student’s digital devices if I ever suspect a student is in

This paper is a personal technology plan that includes my personal philosophy on integrating technology in the classroom as well as my professional goals concerning technology in the classroom. My Mission and Vision Statement are included as well as a plan for communications, integrating technology, software to support assessment, and technology ethics for a strong guideline in the classroom. Although this plan will need to be revised as advances in technology are made this is strong ground work that I can build on as a professional educator. Using this plan I can ensure that my students are using the latest

My college is a rather large education organisation that is partly responsible for the safety and actions of its staff and students that use the computer systems within the premises. In order to comply with legislation's and give themselves a leg to stand on if any legal issue were to arise, they hand each student and staff member a usage policy that basically says as a student/staff member you agree to these terms and rules about using our computer systems.

Due to the fact he was no longer employed under this department, Defendant was no longer privy to access sensitive SSD data, including passwords. Defendant continued to work for Intel as a private contractor and used a gate program to access an Intel computer from remote locations for e-mail purposes. Schwartz was warned to cease his use of gate programs twice; he argued after the first warning his alterations to the program made it secure but an administrator reminded him his usage of the program violated company policy. Shortly after, Defendant downloaded the password-cracking program “Crack” and ran it on several Intel computers before finding the log-in information for authorized user Ron B. Defendant used this information to log into the authorized user’s computer. Defendant copied the SSD password file from that computer onto another one, where he ran the Crack program to obtain the passwords of 35 more SSD users. Defendant believed if he could expose the flaws in the company’s security then he could regain his lost reputation. Upon returning from teaching classes in California, Defendant ran Crack on the SSD file once more on a superior personal computer. His activity was detected by another Intel administrator who—with other administrators—contacted the

Students can send cruel comments through texts and emails instead of doing it in person. A whole group of students can send anonymous messages and slander through Facebook or YouTube. The home address or cell phone number of the victim can be posted online. Videos and pictures of an individual during a vulnerable or intimate time in their life can be used on the internet to continue their humiliation for years to come. Victims are no longer safe in their own home because their bullies can follow them online. In addition, teachers cannot witness these online altercations like they could with altercations in a classroom. Being unable to track student behavior online, instructors could no longer report activity unless it occurred in their presence or they are notified by a student. School boards cannot respond to these internet attacks with their sweeping policies because they did not apply to off campus situations. Federal laws provided little relief. “In January 2006, the United States made it a federal crime to harass people on the internet.—but the law applied only to people over the age of eighteen.”(Klein 119-120) Cyber-bullies in secondary school could commit acts of aggression without worries of repercussion. If caught, online abuser could evoke their first amendment rights, which defendsfreedom of speech. No one willing to stop these attackers would know what was happening until it was too late for the

The Board of Education for the Rowan Salisbury Schools are fully aware of how twenty-first century technologies can affect the manner in which our teachers teach and our students learn. It is the goal of the district to provide a safe and nurturing atmosphere that is technologically rich. Providing every student and employee with access to these tools is meant to enhance and improve the learning experience that will ultimately improve the academic achievements of all of our students. The use of the District’s resources are not a right, but come with responsibilities for proper care and use of all district owned technology. The Board also reserves the right to place restrictions on the proper care and use of its devices.

This problem has become more pressing and has been a greater focus in the media. Social media has also brought the issue to the forefront in the last several years and, itself, plays a role in today’s age of bullying, cyber bullying. The Matt Epling Safe School Law (2011/2014) was amended in 2014 to add a section specifically directed at cyberbullying. The legislation identifies bullying as anything that is composed, spoken, acted out, or conveyed electronically. These acts are said to disrupt educational opportunity, impart emotional disturbances, influence physical and mental health, and/or impact the daily functioning of the educational institution (Matt Epling Safe School Law, 2011/2014). These definitions demonstrate the severity of the social problem,

This policy complies with the Computer Misuse Act (1990) which was an act made to secure computer systems and networks from unapproved access. By complying with legal obligation, Blyth’s Books can pursue legal or disciplinary action against anyone (employee or otherwise) guilty of breaching their systems.

Each administrator, teacher, student, or any other employees, who use electronic devices are required to read and sign the Acceptable Use Policy Form, before they can access any type of electronic device on school or district office property. Administrators and Teachers are encouraged to use technology on a day-to-day basis. All students are entitled to have equitable opportunities to employ a variety of technological tools that will enhance the learning process and assist them in attaining

In the Workstation Domain security controls are one of the biggest challenges. Physical security threats are concerns associated more with attackers who gain physical access to the premises. The attackers can cause physical destruction of equipment or sabotage the equipment. The attacker can sabotage the system if the attacker has sufficient knowledge of the system, such as a former employee, and gains access to the system and then renders the system unusable, or deletes and changes information.
