About the Coping With Dangers on the Internet: A Teen's Guide to Staying Safe Online (Coping)

Gr 7 Up-Students will find plenty of sound advice and helpful guidelines in this easy-to-read book on wise use of the Internet. Organized into six chapters, this informative yet uncomplicated text includes important guidelines pertaining to general Web safety; the ins and outs of sending and receiving e-mail; commonsense advice on surfing; how to use chat rooms, newsgroups, and mailing lists; proper netiquette; and publishing on the Web. Without sounding preachy, Rothman succeeds at informing inexperienced users, reminds the experienced what to be cautious of while using the Internet, and tells readers to be constantly aware while on-line. A page of common acronyms used in chat rooms and a page of emoticons will be helpful to new users. An enlightening and practical book.
