Internet Safety Tips for Students
• ABSOLUTELY NO EXCHANGE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION!• Social Networking profiles such as Facebook etc SHOULD BE SET TO PRIVATE.• MSN contacts and social networking site friends should be people that you know in real life. This is one way to reduce possible risks.• An ‘online friend’ that you don’t know in real life is a STRANGER.• Passwords MUST NOT BE SHARED!!!!! Choose passwords that others can’t guess…..not your favorite food or pets name. Should be a mix of caps/letters/numbers/symbols.
