We began our class by searching internet to find out about cyberbullying and laws. What we read was alarming as we learned that cyberbullying has lead to school shootings, sucicide, and other horrible things and that some seem to be unpunishable by current laws. We all agreed that this is wrong and as a generation that must live with technology we must find ways that protect us as well as our freedoms. To become better educated about technology we have done the following:

Developed our own definitions from research about the topic of cyberbullying.

Invited a detective from our local police department to speak to us about how they deal with these issues.

Invited a current law student who has studied and researched this new area of the legal field to come and speak about how to develop good laws to protect the children of Kansas.

Invited our school superientendent to speak to us about how our school district handles these issues and how to handle situations that affect the safety and reputatition of students in our district.

Began studying from our //Computer and Internet Ethics// book about the topics listed to the left of this screen. Please feel free to learn about them with us by viewing the PowerPoints and pages the students have created.

Our final project will be to present our findings to the Logan Parent group about what we know, hope will happen for our state, district, and school. We want to make better decisions and provide safety for our friends and staff at Logan.
