Filtering/blocking at school

Submitted by Chris ONeal (not verified) on March 25, 2008 - 12:18.

Trina, you're not alone. You would not believe (or maybe you would!) how many schools I visit where there are some serious filtering/blocking issues that continue to plague teachers. I wholeheartedly support a filtering mechanism to help shield students from inappropriate sites, pornography, etc. while at school. However, I feel like many times when I'm working in districts, the instructional/teacher group has little input into the filtering/blocking system in place. That's a shame, because of everything you so well explained!
