Jordan Technology User Contract
|
|
Students at Jordan may have access to a wide range
of technologies, including computers and the Internet. With Jordans
link to the Internet, students now have access to computer networks
around the world, providing open access to local, national, and
international sources of information and collaboration vital to
intellectual inquiry in a democracy. Technology at Jordan is utilized
and shared by large numbers of students and staff. For this reason,
we need to have a set of rules that keeps things running smoothly.
Every Jordan user is expected to act in a responsible, ethical,
and legal manner.
The student and his/her parent(s) are warned that
Jordan does not have control of the information on the Internet,
nor does it provide any barriers to account holders accessing the
full range of information available other than those constraints
imposed by finite resources. The Internet may contain material that
is illegal, defamatory, inaccurate, or potentially offensive to
some people. While Jordans intent is to make Internet access
available to further its educational goals and objectives, students
will have the ability to access other material as well.
Jordan believes that the benefits to educators
and students from access to the Internet, in the form of information
resources and opportunities for collaboration, far exceed any disadvantages
of access. But ultimately, parent(s) of minors are responsible for
setting and conveying the standards that their child or ward should
follow. To that end, Jordan supports and respects each familys
right to decide whether or not to apply for Jordan access. However,
Jordan cannot guarantee that a student will never gain access to
the Internet.
Jordan makes no guarantees with respect to the
Internet, and it specifically assumes no responsibilities for:
- The content of any advice or information received from a source
outside Jordan, or any costs or charges incurred as a result of
seeking or accepting such advice;
- Any costs, liability or damages as a result or use of the students
Internet access.;
- Any consequences of service interruptions or changes, even if
these disruptions arise from circumstances under the control of
Jordan.
Jordan students and their parents/guardians must read and sign the PAUSD
Student Handbook: A Guide
to the Internet and District Information System, and the Jordan
Technology User contract before they are permitted to use
any technology. |
