The Internet Advocate
A)Contrary to the manner in which many legislators and news reports have depicted it, the Internet is an appropriate and useful information tool for children and young adults. Educators have realized this for years and worked diligently to create and promote increasing numbers of K-12(from Kindergarten to 12th grade)resources available on the Internet. Unfortunately, these innovative efforts do not receive the same widespread media coverage that reports of pornography on the Internet have garnered.
B)Because many people who have never used the Internet may base their understanding of the Net solely on the negative stories they have read in the popular press, or heard about on television, they may perceive the Internet as unsafe for children. Virginia Cooper, Youth Services Librarian at the Henrietta Public Library in Rochester, New York, encountered just such a reaction when she informed some older adults that the library would soon offer Internet access.
C)"Their response was: ’Oh, that’s where all that pornography is. ’ Obviously," Cooper notes, "we are going to have to convince a significant segment of the population that the Internet isn’ t all porn!"
D)In addition to helping librarians and educators dispel the notion that the Net is filled with nothing but pom, this Resource Guide attempts to provide an introduction to the multitude of exciting ways young people are using the Internet in their schools and public libraries. These links are provided to give you an easily accessible, small taste of what’s "out there."They are not the best examples, just a few impressive applications which lead to hundreds more. Venture forth and explore!
E)Some of Web pages designed for children and young adults have a two-fold purpose. In addition to serving as ready-reference tools and pointing out useful places to conduct research, these Web pages steer patrons and students to sites that teachers or librarians have determined to be appropriate for young users. However, because part of the value of the Internet stems from enabling children to learn how to effectively search for information and become discriminating information consumers, and because it is nearly impossible to restrict access within the infinite sphere of the Internet, most schools and public libraries offering Internet access to young people have adopted Acceptable Use Policies(AUPs)or Disclaimers. These policies typically state that the Internet provider cannot review everything on the Internet and, thus, must require students or parents to use the Internet smartly and responsibly.
F)Bill Sears, who has developed an online library for his students at the Mesa Verde High School in San Juan, California, explains: "The solution is to prepare ahead of time web pages that have screened sites. If students want to go beyond that they have made that choice and there is not much you can do about that except having them sign an acceptable use policy. Violation of that policy means they hawing chosen to forgo the use of computers at your school." You have to find ways to make sure they don’ t violate the contract, he adds, "... but I don’t think there is much of a problem if you have the respect from your students."
G)Some schools and libraries have voluntarily devoted AUPs as one way to educate young people and their parents about the Internet. Others may be compelled to issue AUPs as a measure of protection against parental complaints. In September 1995, the Indiana Department of Education required state schools providing Internet access to K-12 students to adopt state Guidelines for Acceptable Internet Use in order to receive financial assistance for their Internet access.
H)While AUPs generally are considered the least restrictive method for supervising a young person’ s use of the Internet, blocking software is the most restrictive and usually least desirable. Yet, some schools and public libraries could be forced to consider installing such software as they seek a compromise between full Internet service to children and parental or community concerns about material on the Net that may be unsuitable for minors.
I)The fifth section of this Resource Guide features organizations dedicated to Freedom of Information issues and preservation of First Amendment fights on the Internet. These groups can help keep you up-to-date on legislation affecting the Internet, explain the ramifications of restricting and censoring Internet use, and support your rights and reasons for enabling young people to access the Internet. In sum, they’ll help you become a dedicated Internet Advocate.
J)Become familiar with the multitude of valuable websites that have been developed by librarians and other educators to promote use of the Internet and understanding of how Internet access can enhance library services and the K-12 educational curriculum. [br] Some schools and libraries may use AUPs in order to protect against parental complaints.
