Barcalow, Tamara. "Preamble." Code of Technology Ethics for Educators. University of Illinois, 2001. Web. 11 May 2015. .

This is an excellent example of a Code of Ethics. All school should consider writing one, as it can be very helpful legally and helps students better understand technology and how to use it.

Berkowicz, Jill, and Ann Myers. "Technology and Ethics." Education Week. Education Week's Blog: Leadership 360, 18 June 2013. Web. 11 May 2015. .

The authors point out how "helping" student with digit projects can tread on cheating. But parents have always helped with homework. So how much is too much? Educations need to have an idea of how to answer that question.

Butler, Kevin. "Cybersafety In the Classroom." District Administration Magazine. District Administration Magazine, June 2010. Web. 11 May 2015. .

Mr. Butler addresses the need for cyber safety and how to teach it to children as soon as they are able to work on a computer. This offers some challenges, since the online world is fast paced and ever changing.

Hopper, D. Ian. "FBI Pushes for Cyber Ethics Education." ABC News. ABC News Network, Oct. 2010. Web. 11 May 2015. .

This article shares that not only is cyber ethics polite, it is something that can keep you out of jail. Online crimes are indeed, still crimes and punishable by law. It is necessary for students to know that.

Johnson, Doug. "A Dozen Ways to Teach Ethical and Safe Technology use - Home - Doug Johnson's Blue Skunk Blog." A Dozen Ways to Teach Ethical and Safe Technology use. The Blue Skunk Blog, 26 Dec. 2010. Web. 11 May 2015. .

This one is a personal Blog. Not everything may be appropriate for students, but this post has some good advice on teaching good ethical technology.

Mendels, Pamela. "Online Ethics Should Begin in Classroom, Educators Say." Online Ethics Should Begin in Classroom, Educators Say. New York Times, 15 Feb. 2000. Web. 11 May 2015. .

Ms. Mendels points out that before driving, students have to study and practice the right way to do it, so it makes sense that before we let students loose on the internet, that we have them study the correct practices. But students are starting on the internet very early, so waiting til high school may be too late. And the words we use to teach them have to be age appropriate.

Pittella, Rosanna, and Phillip Rotstein. "Creating an Ethical Classroom." Teaching. Teaching, 2015. Web. 11 May 2015. .

I liked how this article emphasized how "the community" includes the students, teachers, staff and parents. We must be careful and respectful and teach our students to be, as well.

REMC Association of Michigan. "21 Things 4 Students REMC Association of Michigan." 6. Cyber Safety. REMC.org, 2015. Web. 11 May 2015. .

This site had learning objectives, a teacher's guide, and a student checklist, to name just a few of its features. It also covers topics like cyber safety, buyer beware, collaboration, and career prep. This site is more tailored for older students, but the information would be helpful for teachers of any age and parents.

Starr, Linda. "Proper Internet Use | Tools for Teaching Cyber Ethics." Education World:. Education World, Inc, 14 July 2011. Web. 11 May 2015. .

This website has information on cyber ethics, including how to model it and how to teach it. There are also links to other sources with similar information.

I like her list: Do no harm. Make things better. Respect others. Be fair. Be loving. Those are true for technology ethics and for just life in general.
