  5. Prevent Cyberbullying • Cyberbullying - the use of any form of information technology to deliberately harass, threaten, or intimidate someone. • Can include such acts as making threats, sending provocative insults or racial or ethnic slurs, gay bashing, attempting to infect the victim's computer with a virus, and flooding an e-mail inbox with nonsense messages • What to do • Don't reply to messages from cyberbullies. • Do not keep this to yourself! You are NOT alone and you did NOT do anything to deserve this! Tell an adult you know and trust! • Inform your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or cell phone provider Inform your local police • Do not erase or delete messages from cyberbullies. You don't have to read it, but keep it, it is your evidence. www.cyberbullying.ca

  7. Sexting

  8. Instruct students to preventsexting • "Sexting" usually refers to teens sharing nude photos via cellphone, but it's happening on other devices and the Web too. The practice can have serious legal and psychological consequences, so - teens and adults - consider these tips! • What to do • If a sexting photo arrives on your phone, first, do not send it to anyone else (that could be considered distribution of child pornography). • Talk to a parent or trusted adult. Tell them the full story so they know how to support you. Don't freak out if that adult decides to talk with the parents of others involved - that could be the best way to keep all of you from getting into serious trouble. • If the picture is from a friend or someone you know, then someone needs to talk to that friend so he or she knows sexting is against the law. You're actually doing the friend a big favor because of the serious trouble that can happen if the police get involved. • If the photos keep coming, you and a parent might have to speak with your friend's parents, school authorities or the police. www.connectsafely.org
