Safety from Bullying on Our new VLE (a moodle) contains chats, blogs, wikis and forums – mainly within subject courses Our new ePortfolio (mahara) allows for student working groups and individual Blogs Wherever people interact, bullying can happen.
Advice from the BBC • be clever and keep control – top tips from the BBC: • Never rise to nastiness. Block it and report it. Remove people from your friends and if necessary, report them to the people that run the website. • Adjust your privacy settings so that only people you choose can see your profile. Make yourself unfindable in searches and set your profile to private if you want. • Think about what you post. Only write things online that you would say to someone's face. You don't have to join in on forwarding embarrassing stuff.
Safer than the Internet...? • Only people with Hagley log-ins can access our new online services • Every single online post can be tracked back to its author We won’t be able to view every posting - but we will be able to act when there is a problem
Staying Safe on Haggle Our school blogs, chats and forums (on our VLE and ePortfolio sites) are safer than others – because we can track back and see who has posted on them, if we need to. BUT – that doesn’t mean bullying can’t happen. Follow the BBC’s advice and... • Report any bullying you see on our sites – even if it has nothing to do with you • Never let anyone else use your login – they could be using it to bully
Adjusting your profiles On Haggle (VLE) • Click on your own name (red, top right). Only put information about yourself that you are happy for everyone to know. • You can also set it so that your email address is only visible to people you work with. On Mahara (ePortfolio) • Click on “Profile”. Your contact information is private, unless you choose to put it in a “view”. Keep control of your own information. • When creating working groups, think carefully about the type – they can be open, requested or by invite.
