Internet Safety/Digital Citizenship Contest!Once again, the Nebraska ESU's are partnering with the Nebraska Attorney General's Office to sponsor the Internet Safety/Digital Citizenship Contest for students in K-12 Schools in Nebraska. Each school or district may submit one entry from each grade grouping: K-4, 5-8, 9-12, i.e. three total entries per school. An entry may be a poster, an audio Public Service Announcement (PSA), or a video PSA. For more contest details, download the following documents:
One entry in each grade grouping from each ESU will be selected and given ESU recognition. Winning posters and PSA’s, audio and video, will then be eligible for awards and/or use by the ESUs and the Nebraska Attorney General’s Office. A winning entry in each category which reflects an Internet Safety theme will be selected and sent on to the Attorney General’s office for additional recognition. Entries must be submitted to ESU #8 by March 15th. |

NEA and many of its state affiliates have joined the IKEEPSAFE campaign, a public education effort designed to teach basic rules of Internet safety to children and parents, reaching them online and in school. Governors' spouses formed this coalition in partnership with other concerned organizations.
