Accessibility's Negative Affect on E-Sponsibility

Made by myself off of Worldle

Accessibility is one of the four core issues that is seen from using Internet in teaching. Not everyone can afford having Internet in their homes which leaves students without access to it at a disadvantage to those students who do. I believe that accessibility to the Internet has a negative affect on my core issue topic, E-Sponsibility. I believe this because the more people that have access to the Internet the more pressure teachers have on them to obtain their status on the Internet. Do not get me wrong, I think that teachers should be responsible with their Internet use regardless of whether anyone can see it or not, but without accessibility there would be less controversy over what teachers should and shouldn’t post on the Internet. As a teacher you are held to a higher standard both inside the classroom and outside the classroom and both off the Internet and on the Internet. Even though you have to be responsible in all ways, having what you say and do be accessible to anyone is questionable. Everyone thinks that only their friends they accept on their social media's can access their information but in reality many people can. These days it is hard to define what is and isn’t okay to post on the Internet; everyone has different values and beliefs as to what is moral, therefore it is impossible to please everyone unless you just completely stay away from it. It is so easy for a picture or post to be twisted around by someone that is out to get you. There are tons of people out there searching the Internet and you can’t be sure what their purpose is. But without accessibility to the Internet, no one can see it and if no one can see it, then there is no problem.
