Purpose
Internet access brings extraordinary educational resources to schools, but it can also expose minors to inappropriate content. While no solution is guaranteed to block all unsuitable websites and cyberattacks, UETN offers filtering software to make online learning safer for students and teachers. This document describes how school districts and K-12 teachers can work with UETN to keep students safe while enjoying the benefits of the internet.
Definitions
Internet Filtering, also known as Internet Content Management, protects devices from accessing unwanted material such as viruses, pornography or advertising. Schools and libraries are required by the Children’s Internet Protection Act (CIPA) to have measures in place that protect minors by blocking content that is not age-appropriate or while allowing adults to un-block restricted content.
