Digital Law is a very important concept for all internet users to know about. It is important because it is the set of laws used to keep the internet a smooth-running, safe place with no illegal activity. If people do not know about the digital laws, than they could do things on the internet that they do not realize are illegal, and could potentially harm other people. These laws are an important guideline for all internet users to follow.

As a class, watch an educational video on digital law and what it is (brain pop, bill nye, etc). If there is not a q&a at the end of the video for the kids to do as a class, then the teacher must make one. After the q&a, have the students pair up and come up with a list of laws for internet safety.

Start off the lesson by asking the whole class if they have ever seen mean words being said to someone on the internet. After, give a short description of what netiquette is and compare it to bullying. Then, pull up scenarios on the board and go through the list of scenarios, asking the students which scenarios are good netiquette, and which scenarios are bad netiquette.

Laws are specifically made for protecting all citizens from, for example, explicit content, hackers, or identity theft. These laws are important to know as a teacher because they implement the safety of your students and it is important to know what they can and can not be doing and how to protect them from the people who break the law

Netiquette is a very important part of modern communication because most of the population is on social media and or uses the internet as a way of communicating with one another. Teaching our students about the importance of being polite and appropriate while using these websites is necessary because of the fact that almost every child will have access to the internet and bullying has transformed from physical to online and teaching about netiquette is an important step to preventing online bullying.

Netiquette is an important modern day concept. Because of the increased use of the internet in ones everyday life, it is important to know about netiquette and what it entails. I believe that netiquette should be taught at a young age in schools in computer class in hopes to decrease the amount of cyber bullying. Kids use the internet often whether its to play games, do school work, chat with friends etc. Before they are able to use the internet, they should be taught about the important of netiquette and what could come from having bad netiquette. Teaching this concept is an important step in preventing bullying online and just practicing internet safety in general.

1. A person downloading music from an illegal website for free.
This is considered a violation of digital law because a person is stealing copyrighted music from its rightful owner without paying for it.
2. Using someone else identity to create a fake account and then further messaging someone from that account.
This is considered a violation of digital law because a person is using someone else information without said persons permission. This is considered identity theft which is a criminal offense.
3. A person purchases an amazon fire stick and has their friend jail break it for them.
This is a violation because by jail breaking the fire stick, the copy protection is being removed because of all the illegal downloading one can do when a fire stick is jail broke.

CIPA is important to have in school because there are many scenarios where children are allowed to use computers, and if the teacher can not focus on all of the computers at once, so a student could end up on a website that is inappropriate for school or could use the computer for reasons that are not allowed, for example, hacking. This security and safety comes into play when the students are using social media and emailing websites because it prevents them from bullying one another and ending up seeing or posting inappropriate/illegal things on school computers.

1. Check before you click!: make sure that before you post something on the internet that it is exactly what you meant to say/ want to say. Once something is posted on the internet it will be there forever!
2.  Think of feelings before you post something: Every body on the computer is a human being who has real feelings and emotions. Just because you cannot physically see that person, does not mean they are not human! Be cautious of what you say on the internet and think about whether you would say it to a persons face before you post. Bad netiquette can go hand in hand with cyber bullying.
3. Don't Catfish!: be yourself on the internet to get the most out of internet communication. By making false profiles and pretending to be someone you're not, you are running the risk of people not taking you seriously in the long run.
4. Don't yell!: Although when you are speaking to someone on the internet they can not hear you or understand your tone of voice, typing in CAPS LOCK is basically the same thing as yelling at someone in person.
5. Respect privacy: Respecting ones privacy on the internet is very important. Do not pass on peoples personal information, photos, etc without that persons permission. This can be considered cyber bullying or sometimes people who do this can be considered a criminal. Think of whether you would want other people passing on your private life before you do it to someone else.
