Program Description
There is no doubt we now live in an “Internet Age.” At the click of a mouse, you can e-mail hundreds of people simultaneously, buy that long-desired vintage automobile, or create a personal profile to share with the world. With unlimited opportunities, cyberspace may well have become the new “final frontier.” How best can we explore this frontier? How can we minimize risk and maximize safety? How can we help students be secure in their Internet activities? These are important questions, and we invite you and your students to participate in this important discussion. Students will interact with representatives from the Missouri Attorney General’s office, security experts from Missouri Research and Education Network (MOREnet), and current Miss Missouri Lindsay Casmaer, a victim of cyber-bullying and cyber-stalking herself. Students will also have the chance to share with each other as well.Topics will include online predators, cyber-bullying, identity theft and other Internet-related issues. “This is such an important issue – it is absolutely critical for kids, parents and community members to be on the same page with regard to online safety,” said Randy Raw, Manager of Network Security at MOREnet. “The Internet is a fantastic learning tool, but like any tool, people need to understand what the risks are and how to use it safely.” Interactive videoconference space is limited so contact us early to enroll your students.Related Information:The Missouri Research Education Network (MOREnet) is presenting these student-focused programs as part of a larger menu of opportunities known as Internet Safety Night occurring on the evening of April 23, 2008. Internet Safety Night is a nationwide event that brings information and resources to students, parents and members of the community to help us all stay safer online. The goal is for communities to pull together local experts and resources — students, parents, teachers, law enforcement and community members — to begin a discussion about the importance of Internet safety. These local discussions, occurring simultaneously all around the country, then connect to the national host site in Columbia, Mo. for the featured speakers and other resources and tools that families can use to stay safe. Participants at any of the local events can see, hear, ask and answer questions in real time with participants at any of the other sites!
