Learning Right from Wrong in the Digital Age: An Ethics Guide for Parents, Teachers, Librarians, and Others Who Care About Computer-Using Young People

Douglas A. Johnson

When students start using computers and networks, they start operating in a new, virtual world. Suddenly, behavioral lines blur: is it OK to download text from a website right into a term paper? What should you say about computer chat rooms or copying software programs? This new thoughtful and carefully written book helps you-and your students-understand today’s information technology ethics, from downloading explicit pictures to guessing passwords to respect for privacy, property, and the law.

* Help students explore the ethics of digital technology

* Includes the Ten Commandments of Computer Ethics with key moral imperatives for students of all ages
