CyberSmarts: Staying Safe Online, a unique collection of five Interactive e-books, gives students hands-on experience in navigating the online world in a safe, controlled environment. Titles include: • Stopping Cyberbullying • Avoiding Predators Online • Protecting Your Privacy Online • Using Social Networks • Playing Games Online

Created for elementary students, the guided learning simulations safely teach users to: • Create a username • Choose an avatar • Chat • Send messages and emails • Create profiles • Receive and respond to “friend” invitations

Easy to use with a group or individually, these Interactive eBooks can be projected on a whiteboard or viewed on individual student computers. Instructional tools include lesson plans, reproducibles, and research prompts. For a "guided tour" of the CyberSmarts program, go to: []
