Risks • Applications go up and down. • Applications get bought out. • Applications may create thing that can’t leave the confines of the particular web site (e.g./ can’t be downloaded to a disc/dvd/etc…) • Students with computers at home may get to spend more time on projects than students without since it’s easily accessible.

  5. A Note On Blocking • EPSB and ECS block many Web 2.0 sites… you can get around this!!! • Written request submitted to your technology department. • Provide a rational, pedagogical justification for the site to be unblocked at YOUR school. • Describe how you will keep students safe.
