Introduction
Children are exposed to the Internet at an early age and grow up using the technology. But they often don't understand the risks. This lesson maps out the strategy by which parents can stay one step ahead. First teach your children, and then train other parents to do the same.
Online Dangers
Children are given Internet access-without a user's manual. This lesson provides just that. You learn that children are at-risk online, even in the security of the family home. And you'll understand that in the digital age, parents must be proactive.
Cyber Security
Parents take preventative steps to keep their families free from infection. If you're not careful, the family's computer can be infected with worms, viruses, Trojan horses, and spyware. This lesson teaches you how to spot trouble, and offers some preventative Rx.
Curriculum & Outreach
A child really understands how to be cyber safe when he or she is able to teach others. In this lesson, you see where parents fit into the three parts of the i-SAFE Internet safety training program-education, youth empowerment, and outreach.
The Digital Divide

Take Action
Help keep Cyberspace safe from predators, bullies, and malicious code. This lesson teaches you how to expand your influence beyond your home to ensure that Internet safety education is taught at school and Internet safety awareness is spread. |
