Introduction

LearnforLife.sg is an inclusive eLearning space that supports the Autism Community in the teaching and learning of Life Skills.

This Code of Conduct has been prepared in collaboration with users, educators, allied educators and administrators. It reflects the 5C values of the EdTech Team, Pathlight School and ARC(S) community. The Code of Conduct applies to all course content, participation and interaction, including assignment submissions, discussion posts, course chats and private messages on Learnforlife.sg.

The Code of Conduct is not an exhaustive list, rather it is intended as a guide for the kind of interactions on the learning space. It will be periodically reviewed to keep up to date with ongoing developments and collection of data. The EdTech Team reserves the right to modify it at any time.

While the EdTech Team does not actively monitor activity and content in all courses, the EdTech Team will remove inappropriate content and may ban users who violate the Code of Conduct. If you believe that someone has violated this code of conduct, begin by notifying your teacher or the instructor of the course. You may also contact with your concerns.

Practice the 5C Values When Online

To ensure LearnforLife.sg is a safe, welcoming and respectful online learning environment, we ask that all users pledge to practice the 5C values when online.

 

Character

Do the right thing even when you think no one is watching.

 

 

• Be honest. Don’t steal from others. You agree not to take the ideas, writings or images of others and present them as if they were your own. For example, uploading the work of others as your own assignment or submission. You also agree not to copy, transfer or use files, programs or any other information belonging to LearnforLife.sg for any reason whatsoever unless specifically permitted by the EdTech Team.
• Be authentic. Don’t pretend to be another person on LearnforLife.sg. You agree not to sign in to LearnforLife.sg using another person’s user id and password.
• Have integrity. You agree not to interfere with or try to disrupt LearnforLife.sg's services through the following activities:
  • Uploading a virus-infected file or other harmful computer code.
  • Attempt to access parts of LearnforLife.sg that are unauthorised to learners.
  • Cause any user to lose access to the system - for example, by disabling accounts or changing passwords without authorization.
  • Damage or delete files or information belonging to any person without authorization.
  • Engage in activity that will improve or harm the grades of others.

 

Competence

Know how to stay safe online. Learn how in our Cyberwellness Programme.

 

 

• Protect your account. Never reveal your LearnforLife.sg user id and password to another person.
• Respect other user's privacy and protect your own. Never reveal private or personally identifying information (such as your name, address, phone number, age, physical description, school, photo) or that of anyone else online.

 

Compassion

Be inclusive. Respect others.

 

 

• Participate respectfully. You agree that you will not send, post or upload any content or engage in any behaviour that is:
  • Rude and/or vulgar
  • Abusive, threatening, or defamatory
  • Obscene, profane, pornographic, or sexually explicit
  • Offensive (racially, culturally, religiously or politically)

We have zero tolerance towards hate speech. Hate speech occurs when violent, offensive, derogatory or demeaning language is directed at a person. You agree to be respectful of other learners and their opinions.

If you think discrimination or hate speech has occurred on LearnforLife.sg, please report it by emailing

 

Contribution

Share your knowledge and ideas to help others.

 

 

• Contribute responsibly. You agree that you will not send, post or upload any content or engage in any behaviour intended to spread false and misleading news or information.
• Keep feedback constructive. You agree that you will not send, post or upload any content or engage in any behaviour intended to belittle, openly challenge, insult, or hurt others.

 

Conviction

Be ambassadors of Cyber Wellness and a good role model to others.

 

 

• Be a positive influence on others. Promote and raise Cyber Wellness awareness among others by demonstrating safe online habits.
