Cyber Law

"School leaders face extraordinary challenges as they balance student empowerment with organizational responsibility. This book's...practical tips help administrators navigate those shoals effectively."

Dr. Scott McLeod, Director
CASTLE

I am pleased to announce the publication of my first book. Cyber Law: Maximizing Safety and Minimizing Risk in Classrooms was published in April 2009 by Corwin Press.

This resource provides an overview of the legal issues associated with technology in the classroom, as well as practical strategies for minimizing legal risks while maximizing the benefits of the Internet, Web tools, social networking sites, and more.

In the book, I offer concise summaries of laws and legal claims along with vignettes based on actual cases to illustrate potentially risky classroom situations. Sample policies, permission forms, and contract language are included, plus examples of creative approaches or activities developed by K–12 schools relating to technology issues. Some of the areas covered include:

Appropriate student and staff use of the Internet
Privacy, security, cyberbullying, and other safety issues
Copyright law, legal liabilities, and ethical issues
Policies, procedures, and contracts to communicate expectations to parents, staff, and students
