00:00:00.083 --> 00:00:03.918
Here are three ways to protect
your students' privacy

2
00:00:03.918 --> 00:00:05.876
when posting on social media.

3
00:00:05.876 --> 00:00:07.751
Number one:

4
00:00:07.751 --> 00:00:09.959
Know your school or district's
policies and follow them.

5
00:00:09.959 --> 00:00:12.542
Better yet,
share them with students

6
00:00:12.542 --> 00:00:16.334
and help your kids understand
the reasoning behind the rules.

7
00:00:16.334 --> 00:00:17.792
Two:
consider separate accounts

8
00:00:17.792 --> 00:00:20.209
for professional
and personal use.

9
00:00:20.209 --> 00:00:22.417
Different audience?
Different account.

10
00:00:22.417 --> 00:00:24.834
If it involves students
or their schoolwork,

11
00:00:24.834 --> 00:00:26.751
double check
all the privacy settings,

12
00:00:26.751 --> 00:00:28.667
including location.

13
00:00:28.667 --> 00:00:30.792
And three:
always protect

14
00:00:30.792 --> 00:00:32.959
students' confidentiality
when you post.

15
00:00:32.959 --> 00:00:34.959
Never share names or faces

16
00:00:34.959 --> 00:00:37.000
without explicit
parental consent.

17
00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:40.334
Be vigilant about personally
identifiable information.

18
00:00:40.334 --> 00:00:43.167
Watch out for things
like name tags and jerseys,

19
00:00:43.167 --> 00:00:44.501
and even kids' handwriting.

20
00:00:44.501 --> 00:00:46.667
And, of course,
never make kids' grades

21
00:00:46.667 --> 00:00:48.083
or assessments public.

22
00:00:48.083 --> 00:00:51.083
Social media can be
a great way to model

23
00:00:51.083 --> 00:00:53.375
what good digital citizenship
looks like.

24
00:00:53.375 --> 00:00:55.959
Just keep kids' privacy in mind.

25
00:00:55.959 --> 00:00:58.834
