ICT Agreement MMI

Mt Maunganui Intermediate School believes in a Digital Citizenship model for supporting safe and responsible use of the internet in teaching and learning. An important part of this is that we are able to show others what that responsible use looks like while we are using technology in our learning.

We think a good digital citizen is someone who :
● is a confident and capable user of ICT
● will use ICT for learning as well as other activities
● will think carefully about whether the information they see online is true
● will be able to speak the language of digital technologies
● understands that they may experience problems when using technology but can deal with them
● will always use ICT to communicate with others in positive ways
● will be honest and fair in all of their actions using ICT
● will always respect people’s privacy and freedom of speech online
● will help others to become a better digital citizen
● will respect ICT equipment

Because we know this is important for us all, we ask everyone, the staff, students and volunteers working at the school to agree to use the internet and other technologies in a safe and responsible way by following the rules laid out in a Responsible Use Agreement like this one.

If someone cannot agree to act responsibly, or the things that they do mean that other people are being harmed, then we might stop them from using the internet or other technology at school.

When using information & communications technologies (ICT) at Mt Maunganui Intermediate School I will always be a good digital citizen.

This means that I :

Confident *

Will be a confident and capable user of ICT. I know what I do and do not understand about the technologies that I use. I will get help where I need it.

Yes

Appropriate *

Will use ICT for learning as well as other activities. I understand that technology can help me to learn. I also know it can also be used to talk to people, to buy and sell things and to have my opinion heard. I know where and when it is appropriate to do each one.

Yes

Will think carefully about whether the information I see online is true. I know that it is easy to put information online. This means that what I see is not always right. I will always check to make sure information is real before I use it. *

Yes

Will be able to speak the language of digital technologies. When people talk online the things they say can be quite different from a conversation they might have if they were sitting next to each other. I know that I must try to understand what people are saying before I react to them. If I am not sure, I can ask them or someone else to explain. *

Yes

Understand that I may experience problems when I use technology but that I will learn to deal with them. *

Yes

Understand that there will be times when technology may not work as I expect it to, or that people may be mean or unkind to me online. When these things happen, I know that there are ways I can deal with it. I also know that there are people I can go to, to get help if I don’t know what to do next. *

Yes

Will always use ICT to communicate with others in positive, meaningful ways. I will always talk politely and with respect to people online. I know that it is possible to bully or hurt people with what I say and do on the internet. I will think about the effect that my actions have on other people. *

Yes

Will be honest and fair in all of my actions using ICT. I will never do anything online that I know will hurt anyone. I will make sure what I do is not against the law. I will make sure that my actions don’t break the rules of the websites that I use. When I am not sure about what I am doing I will ask for help. I will not attempt to change or modify equipment configurations. *

Yes

Will always respect people’s privacy and freedom of speech online. I understand that some information is private. I will be careful when using my own or other's full names, birthday, address and photo. I also know that I will not always agree with what people say online but that does not mean that I can stop them or use it as an excuse to be unkind to them. *

Yes

Will help others to become a better digital citizen. Being a good digital citizen is something that we all have to work at. If I know that my friends are having problems online, I will try to help them. If I see that someone is being unfairly treated online then I will speak up rather than just watch it happen. *

Yes
