Transcript of Cramlington Learning Village Presentation from #frog12
Managing Acceptable Use
Graham QuinceVLE Coordinator, CLV
Background
• CLV: 2,200+ students, 120 teachers• Approx 1500 PCs on site• 300 mobile tablets in Year 7 (expected to
double in September)• 3 Web Designers• CLV has been a Frog School since September
2008
Story
• Social Networking was a big buy-in for us• Benefits of SN:– Communication, both non-directed and directed – Student Voice– Responsibility
With great power comes great responsibility
With every PowerPoint comes an obvious pop-culture reference
Trust
• We wanted to encourage responsibility,not limit student access.
• Social Networking exists in the ‘real world’, we should help our students learn how to use it
• Of course, there’s always some who will turn to the dark side…

Acceptable Use Policy
• All students when first starting at CLV are introduced to the computers and our AUP
• The AUP is a contract with the students explaining:– how they should use the school’s computers– what is acceptable on the internet– when they can play games, etc…
• There are consequences for breaking the AUP just as there are for any inappropriate behaviour in school.
Acceptable Use Policy
The Banned List
• Manual Frog Group: The Banned List
The Banned List
• Students who break the AUP are added to the group
• A Frog IF Brick surrounding each fun section on the VLE prevents those students accessing that resource.

Impact
• Immediate• Solves behaviour issues quickly• Students know why they are banned• Classroom teachers don’t become involved,
allows them to avoid arguments of behaviour
Conclusion
• We feel it is right to encourage responsibility
• We need to also ensure our students are respectful to each other and to staff when online.

• Social Networking provides us with the opportunity to foster the culture we want.
• The Banned List allows us to prevent misuse when a student doesn’t live up to that trust.
