Internet safety mock assessment

Well what can I say, I was really surprised to learn that I knew so much about Internet safety HAHA!!!!! Maybe there is something sinking into that 'old' brain of mine after all HAHA!!!!!

My darling daughter

Here's a wee pic of my beautiful daughter that was taken last year!!

getting spooked?

My daughter has been really spooking me out recently. She woke up one night last week & told me she saw a shadow of a 'man' & that she was freezing, since then she's been mentioning an invisible 'friend' & that she feels someone blowing on her hair!!!!

Could it be that she has someone 'watching' over her or just a 5 yrs old imagination running away with them??????????

Maybe Mulder & Skully could help me solve this one?!HAHA

Bullying victims

Here's a wee video of some of the victims of bullying!

'Cyberbullying'

What is Cyberbullying?
Cyberbullying is when a child up to a teenager is harrassed, threatened, embarrassed/humiliated or tormented by another child/ren

Why do you think people cyperbully?
It may be that the 'bully' is not very confident or very unhappy in their own life or that they may just want to 'impress' their friends

What should the target do?
The target should report it to their parents, who will takethe appropriate measures to deal with it
What should the school or college do?
The school/college should inform all pupils of the consequences that may occur from cyberbullying.

What should the Government do? The Government should place tougher new laws regarding ISP's placing tougher monitoring etc on their websites

New laws have just been passed to deal with cyberbullies. Do they go far enough?
I don't feel that they go far enough as they need to pass tougher laws for that the ISP's need to follow along with some other strategy's

Lynne meets Duncan Shearer

I don't think my friend Lynne was too pleased about meeting Duncan Shearer on her hen night :-D

why is club penguin such a safe site??
The site is set out to especially be more appealing to young children with use of the graphics etcIt gives parents alot of useful advice on how to try & help keep children safe onlineThe site uses a filter to prevent children seeing words/phrases that they deem unfit for their eyesThere is moderators online to help make sure they are safe while chattingThey aren't allowed to give out their name etc as they have to use an avatar & a specific usernameno unappropriate adverts due to it being a paid website

Happy Hallowe'en

Hope you have a scary good night x

Zombie Computers

A 'Zombie' is a program that has been uploaded onto your PC through a virus (e.g Trojan, worm etc) & is used to infect other computers. It works in the same sense as the mythical 'Zombies' from movies etc in basically doing things the owner of the PC is unaware of e.g sending spam mail etc.

Phishing e-mails

The biggest clue that e-mails (from banks) are fake is if you don't have an account with them!!

If you do ahve an account with that bank I would advise it's a Phishing e-mail as there are a few factors that prove this, these being -

The address in the URL bar should be HTTPS to prove it's a secure site,
There should be a padlock in the bottom bar to also prove it's a secure site,
The Engllish translation of the whole e-mail is very poor & an organisation of that size would know how to write their e-mails properly
It's a very informal letter if you are a customer
The bank would already know all your details including your username etc
If you were to cut & paste the URL or even hover over it, you would realise it would come up saying a different thing.

Internet security

Ok well have to admit was really surprised at what I knew about internet security without even realising it :-)

My time at college ;-)

My time at college so far has been pretty good. I always thought that I wouldnt fit in but I now know that I was wrong!! I've made lots of friends already!!!!
I've learnt alot so far & hopefully will learn even more in the coming months.
I'm not too sure what type of job I would like to go for as yet but I do know that I would like to go onto university!
