When you produce some work, you need to be careful that the you use appropriate text and photos for the job. For example, if you are doing a project in school you shouldn't include anything rude or graphic because it wouldn't be appropriate, but if you did the same project at university then it would be a more appropriate place to use graphic images. At school there is a blocking system they use which is called watchdog. Watchdog blocks websites which are not appropriate for schools. In google settings you can turn on safe search which would block inappropriate images. You can set your safe search to off, moderate or strict.
Below is a screenshot of what would come up if you tried to get on a website blocked by watchdog.
Security
When you are finished on a computer you must be careful to log out properly, particularly if you are not working on your own computer. If you don't then anyone could go though your folders and delete your work. You should also be careful not to let anyone know your password because then they could log on anytime. If people do see your password then all you need to do is change it and not let anyone see your new password. If you are at school you would need to talk to the appropriate teacher to get it changed.
If you are working on something at school, such as a project, and you want to take it home to work on it or vice versa, then you need a way of transporting it. Some popular ways which people use are USB, e mailing it to yourself and other storage devices such as an i pod or hard drive. E mailing it to yourself is a particularly good way because then you can access it from any computer and you don't need to remember to take any type of storage holder. It also means that you have your project backed up in case something happens to the original.
