Blogging Guidelines: Behavior Code
http://academyofdiscovery.wikispaces.com/Internet+Safety
This excellent Online Code of Behavior was established by the Discovery Team at Cresthill Middle School. It creates an online working environment that is:

* Without fear (of insult, of reprisal, of dishonesty).
* Scholastic.
* Based upon protection (of personal information, of identity, of unique thoughts).
* Creative, non-restrictive, tolerant, and sensitive.

This Code aims to extend other classroom blogging guidelines already in place in classrooms around the country. It is, however, unique to Cresthill and her students because it was generated and self-selected by 2006-2007 Discovery team students.
