Code of Conduct ESF encourages fun, friendship and safety in a positive atmosphere. We have established behavior guidelines that revolve around the “Three R’s” that all campers follow: Respect yourself Respect others Respect your environment
Netiquette • • • • • • • • •
Treat other campers online as you would like to be treated yourself. Don’t engage in cyberbullying. Never reveal personal information online. Dress appropriately and be aware of your background. (Wear your ESF camp t-shirt as often as possible!) Avoid inappropriate or objectionable language. Protect your own privacy and keep the privacy of others. Be polite, respectful, and an attentive listener. Be helpful and understanding of everyone’s tech abilities. Remember that using technology is a privilege!
Safety and Security • Our supervision ratios will be maintained at 1:7. • Campers will never be alone in a virtual room with a Team member. • Live programs will only be recorded for security purposes and stored in a secure ESF Dropbox. Any camper photographs that are uploaded into Canvas will be secure. • In the case of a camper health emergency during a live program, the teacher will call the primary parent on file to alert them of the emergency. If that parent cannot be reached, the teacher will call the secondary parent and then, if needed, the emergency contact.
Safety and Security Zoom protections include: • Mute a participant and stop a participant’s video. • Prevent screen sharing. • Rename a participant. • Put a participant on hold. • Lock the meeting to prevent new participants from entering. • Place participants in a waiting room before admitting them to the meeting.
