[Year 12 IT Apps] FW: room change

Sitting back on your hands and give up certainly isn't the answer. The email
is not prohibited, they can send and receive as they like. They just can't
access their accounts. Schools are meant to set kids up for life, many
businesses I know do not allow access to these sites. I agree prohibition is
not the answer, but making access to these accounts and education is
definitely the way to go.

You can't block all email accounts.

There are too many of them and the proxy sites allow access anyway.

Prohibition was and never will be the solution.

We have blocked all personal email accounts, which force the students to use
their school email. The problem with external email accounts is that they
can send email anonymously with minimal chance of tracing who the mail is
from. Forcing them to use school email allows your administrators to track
the mail sent, minimise plagiarism as they can check their account, etc.

The kids are quite annoyed but I believe it is a necessary measure and am
weathering the storm at the moment.

Do your kids use/check their school email or do you use their personal
(hotmail etc) email addresses?

We have trouble here getting students to use their school email.

Your blunder may be just the catalyst to start a thread on how schools
communicate with there students.

 

It would appear that you communicating with your students via email is a
very 'normal' thing for you.

 

How do others see this? Progressive or 'normal'?
