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 are offering this special evening event to invite parents, teachers, students and community leaders to participate in this important discussion. Participants will hear a keynote presentation from Larry Magid, author of MySpace Unraveled, co-director of ConnectSafely.org, founder of SafeKids.com, and a board member of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. The keynote will be followed by an interactive panel discussion with Mr. Magid, Chris Pickering, Chief Investigator from the Missouri Attorney General’s office, Joe Laramie, Director of Missouri’s Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force. Detective Andy Anderson, Mid-Missouri Internet Crime Task Force Coordinator, and Lindsay Casmaer, Miss Missouri 2007 and victim of cyberstalking. Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions during the panel discussion. 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.” Your group can choose to participate in one of three ways: 1) via interactive videoconference connection; 2) via “View Only” videoconference participation; and 3) by watching the live stream at http://besafe.more.net. Organizations are encouraged to let parents know of the live stream option if they cannot get to your videoconference location. View only participants and Internet viewers will be able to e-mail questions during the program. Interactive participants will also have opportunities to ask face-to-face questions of the panelists.
