As a business teacher, I am currently teaching computer literacy. Part of the computer literacy curriculum includes teaching students how to access the Internet as well as being able to evaluate what you find online to make informed decisions to meet your needs. Students know that the use of computers is constantly growing and technology is incorporated in every aspect of our daily lives. What they also have to understand is that the convenience and hours saved by using computers or technology also sacrifices our privacy. The Internet is an open file of information. When an individual knowingly supplies personal information, they should know how that information is protected and used. They should also know how information that is not voluntarily supplied is collected and used.
