Hello Lucy Lynch,<br><br>Thanks for stepping with the links to kidsonline which also features podcasts on the subject. Privo's resources are on a priced model, similar to the resources available in media-awareness and we will find a way to make use of these resources based on a commercial model.<br>
<br>University of Oregon's Media Literacy Online project has free downloads. <br><br>Thank you.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Feb 13, 2009 at 10:19 PM, Lucy Lynch <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:lynch@isoc.org">lynch@isoc.org</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
As you are surveying what is available, you might want to look at the Media Awareness Network site in Canada -- lots of good material there as well.<br>

There is also some great work going on in the on-line identity space.<br>
see for example: <a href="http://kidsonline.podbean.com/" target="_blank">http://kidsonline.podbean.com/</a><br>

S.,<br>
<br>
a long-time member of ISOC, Parry Aftab, has excellent insights and experience in this field. Her publications and public interventions are exemplary. And, she doesn't buy all the FUD+control Kool-Aid.<br>
<br>
Her work is easy to find online, but I'm copying her anyway, as she may want to know why suddenly millions of hits from Chennai start to arrive at her pages.<br>
<br>
Yours,<br>

Hello All,<br>
<br>
In response to this message Holly Raiche from ISOC AU sent some pointers and<br>
a link to www.acma.gov.au.which led to resources such as Cybersmart Kids<br>
<<a href="http://www.cybersmartkids.com.au" target="_blank">http://www.cybersmartkids.com.au</a>> I have also found some resources from<br>
BBC, FBI and other sites and have compiled this press release which is a<br>
write up + a toned down compilation of the tips gathered from these sites.<br>
The document is attached in PDF and word formats with a request to comment<br>
if the statement is 'balanced' enough.<br>
<br>
I have also requested ISOC AU's help in obtaining content filtering programs<br>
for homes and schools now being freely distributed by the Government of<br>
Australia. Hope ISOC India Chennai could take more help on more purposeful<br>
programs from ISOC AU and other chapters as we go.<br>
<br>
Thank you<br>

Hello<br>
<br>
ISOC India Chennai has a very simple task of coming up with a list of<br>
Online Safety Tips for Children ( below 13 years and below 18 years ). In<br>
the Indian context, a large proportion of these Internet users are new<br>
users so it could be assumed that most of them require very basic tips on<br>
Online Safety.<br>
<br>
It is a simple task of drawing up a list of (1) What to do and what not to<br>
do online for Children as also (2) providing tips to Parents and Teachers on<br>
content filtering and even broadly monitoring the below 13's use of<br>
Internet.<br>
<br>
As part (2) of the exercise needs to be carefully approached, I am<br>
requesting inputs from the Chapter Delegates to guide India Chennai with<br>
information about work done by other chapters in this area, and also suggest<br>
tips in your role as Parents, as Internet Technical experts or as Educators<br>
or as Civil Society participants.<br>
<br>
The Chapter would be publishing an article, possibly in one of India's<br>
leading dailies and blogs - tomorrow, so a quick response is requested from<br>
anyone who could find a bit of time.<br>
<br>
Thank you<br>

Subject: {ISOC India Chennai Chapter} Safer Internet Day<br>
To: <a href="mailto:isocmadras@googlegroups.com" target="_blank">isocmadras@googlegroups.com</a><br>
<br>
<br>
Hello<br>
<br>
<br>
The twelfth of February was declared Safer Internet Day. The initiative<br>
taken by the European Commission is meant to sensitise society concerning<br>
the (un)safe use of ICT. However, the emphasis lies solely on communication<br>
issues: safe chat, sexual abuse, cyberbullying, pornography on the Internet,<br>
etc...<br>
<br>
Syed Nazir Razik of our Chapter has taken the initiative on Child Safety<br>
issues. His proposal, in broad terms, is that we form a working group on<br>
Child Safety and bring in Children, parents, Teachers and other stakeholders<br>
together to debate and work on Child Safety issues with respect to Internet<br>
<br>
For a start, the chapter will be providing inputs to The Hindu on Child<br>
Safety, in the form of Safety Tips for Children (addressed to parents and<br>
children separately). The chapter would quickly write to other chapters to<br>
ask what they are doing in this area, and ask for some inputs as also do a<br>
little bit of collaborative work locally to determine what is relevant as<br>
measures in the area of Online Safety for Children.<br>
<br>
Inputs are required from Chapter members ( Security Experts, Parents,<br>
Teachers among our members ) on this exercise of drawing up SIMPLE safety<br>
tips ( for instance teach children to log off after browsing in an internet<br>
cafe, do not post pictures in unsafe social networking sites, do not share<br>
information about your physical location among strangers etc.. And for<br>
parents of children below 13 years, advise on browser settings, content<br>
filter settings etc )<br>
<br>
These inputs are required by Tuesday Noon, sooner if possible.<br>
<br>
Thank you<br>
Sivasubramanian Muthusamy<br>
