ECS Employee AUP Review

It is ok to update your personal social media statuses or post personal content during school hours.

• True

• False

Answer explanation

You should not be using any type of social media during the school hours. Parents are watching and posting during school time may give the impression that teachers are not fulfilling their responsibilities to students (even if you are on planning time....they don't know when you have kids and when you don't, so just don't post).

If another person posts a picture of you without your consent that is taken out of context or may give the impressions that are not factual what should you do?

• Ignore the post

• Contact the original poster and have them remove the picture or post

• Contact Mrs. Jones to address the situation

When using a video in your class, it is ok to use the video without first previewing it.

Answer explanation

Also, make sure to preview videos at school. In order for them to be able to work on our network, the content creator must have marked them for use under age 18. If they are not marked "under 18" they will be blocked and will not play at school, even if you tested the video at home.
