Academy School District 20 Blog and Wiki Policies and Procedures

The use of wikis and blogs will be covered under the district Acceptable Use Policy that students / parents sign (usually electronically) at the beginning of each school year.

Teachers who set up blogs or wikis for use with students must agree to the following:

· Follow district policy in regards to supplementary material selection and copyright. [Appendix IIAC-E-2]

· Post content that is consistent with school district goals and expectations

· Post content that is focused on teaching and learning

· Post information that is current and up to date

· Follow district discipline policies and procedures for inappropriate content postings

· Follow established district technology policy and rules and expectations agreed upon in the AUP

· Enable comment moderation to ensure no comments are posted without your approval

· Monitor and review the content of blogs for inappropriate material on a regular basis

· Instruct students on safety and appropriate use of the blogs and wikis

Policy KEC “Public Concerns/Complaints about Instructional Resources” and Procedure KEC-R “Public Concerns/Complaints about Instructional Resources Procedure” shall be followed in regard to any concerns with content on the blogs and wikis.

Consider using the Web 2.0 Student Contract (attachment) as a teaching tool in preparing your students for ethical behavior when using a blog, wiki, or any other type of Web 2.0 tool where they add information to the internet.
