Reducing the Risks in the Classroom

The following guidelines offer general strategies to help teachers reduce the risks associated with students' Internet use.

    * Learn everything you can about the Internet.
      Find out how the Net works and how to find your way around it. If your school or board offers teacher support or training courses, sign up. Use MNet's Web Awareness Workshop series for self-directed learning. Suggest that your board or school use these workshops for presentations to teachers or parent groups.
    * Learn about your students' surfing habits.
      Have students' complete MNet's Student Net Usage Survey form, at right, to assess where, how often, and for how long they go online. Then use their experiences as a springboard for classroom discussion. (We recommend visiting some of the more popular sites yourself.)
    * Make sure that monitor screens are visible.
      Ensure that students' computers are arranged so that you can see all screens - usually in a horseshoe pattern around the walls of the classroom.

How Sleep Affects Grades

Teens frequently hear about the connection between enough sleep and good grades. They do not always, however, put theory into practice. This statistics project anonymously collects data about students' sleep habits, both how long they sleep and what time they go to bed, and compares it to their average grades. The data can be analyzed using a variety of statistical methods, and students follow up the analysis by relating it to their own habits.

select the right Internet University

If you decide to complete your higher education online then it will be necessary for you to put some time into choosing the specific Internet University that you will apply to. It is necessary for you to look for the best Internet University possible because there is many that should be avoided completely. The main thing that you will want to avoid is unaccredited or fraudulent Internet Universities as it will be a waste of both your effort and money.

The most common issue with Internet Universities is that they are not accredited. It is also possible that the university is not accredited for a specific course or program. It is very important that you spend time researching the school and finding out if they are accredited for the internet course you are going to enrol in. Also make sure that they are trustworthy and have a good name behind them. Just like if you were to apply at university campuses, it is necessary to filter through the negligible ones and find the one that you want to attend.
