Internet tips
- A lot of the information found on the Internet is user-generated, meaning that it is not always factually correct and therefore is not completely reliable or true. It is important to be aware of this.
- An example of such a website would be Wikipedia, where users can contribute to articles as they wish. Always check more than one source of information and try to use sources that you know are reliable such as the BBC.
- Be careful with your personal details when using the Internet, as fraudsters commonly try to obtain identity and bank details over the Internet.
- Care should also be taken with personal details when using social networking sites such as Facebook.
