  4. Expectations • Treat the equipment, others, and yourself with respect. • Using this netbook is a privilege, not a right. • Exercise your battery to increase battery life. • Be gentle! • Placing things on top of the netbooks, carrying it by the battery, or picking it up by the screen can cause damage. • Shut down correctly.

  5. Expectations • Allow others in your home to use the netbook educationally. • Anticipate traffic tripping on cords. • Wrap cords loosely (too tight can break wires). • Have separate area for food and liquids.

  6. Expectations • Report any problems to district tech staff immediately with a tech ticket in the office (be very specific). • 3 year warranty including accidental breakage until December 2013. • Return it to school or ISD personnel prior to graduation or leaving the district. • Failure to do so may result in the anti-theft software being engaged and a report to the police.

  11. What do you do about cyber bullying? 1. Prevent it. • Do NOT post in anger or frustration. • It is not entertainment. • Think about what you are posting. 2. Take action. • Ignore or block it. Don’t respond. • Put a stop to it! Report bullying behavior to a trusted adult, school, police, ISP, cell phone service, or host site (Facebook, YouTube, etc.). • Don’t spread it to others.
