Internet Literacy and Student Safety

Internet Literacy and Student Safety

A look at the many websites young students and teens explore to better understand the darker side of the Internet. This workshop will help us establish safer learning enviorments so that students can electronically seeking information and communication.

July 9, July 12, July 13

The following are some of the websites we looked at and discussed on July 12th:

People Trackers
http://www.privateeye.com/
http://www.peoplefinder.com/
http://www.peoplelookup.com/
http://www.usa-people-search.com/
http://whitepages.com/
http://www.ussearch.com/
http://www.blogger.com/www.zabasearch.com

Computer Hoaks or Truth
http://www.vmyths.com/

http://www.vitalrec.com/

Checking who a site belongs to:
http://www.uwhois.com/cgi/whois.cgi
http://www.whois.sc/
http://www.betterwhois.com/
http://allwhois.com/

Search for People:
http://www.web-detective.com/?kbid=1289&gclid=COTnz-7boI0CFSQsFQodlgYL6g
http://www.infospace.com/info/revemail.htm
http://www.schwarzl.com/
http://www.411locate.com/index1.htm
NOTE: If the person has used their e-mail address purely for private correspondence (no chat rooms, no IM, no comments left in guestbooks, no contact details on their website), it is impossible to find - this could apply to more than half the email addresses out there. Sites that offer reverse email results for a fee - typically they are a rip-off.
