An Internet Highway Code - Staying Safe, Secure and Legal Online
15th February
Despite the protection offered by institutional systems and
procedures, both providers and users of web services can still face
real risks when online. New evidence suggests that it is people, as
much as technology, who compromise security and that many are not
aware of the legal, moral and ethical implications of being online
and how their actions can have serious repercussions for themselves
and their employers.

16th February
This is a practical workshop aimed at staff in further and higher
education institutions who wish to find out more about the impact of
the web on plagiarism, and how to deal with it. As well as gaining a
thorough understanding of issues concerned with plagiarism,
participants will also explore essay banks, online plagiarism
detection services, and, through discussions and scenarios, consider
different approaches to deterring plagiarism.
