    Introduction to Online Sexual Exploitation Curriculum 1 Safe Online Outreach Project Learning Objectives

    Introduction To Online Sexual Exploitation: Curriculum February 2003 Safe OnLine Outreach Project © M. Horton 2003 Safe OnLine Outreach Project Acknowledgements This document is the result of many hours of hard work and dedication. I'd like to thank Renata Karrys, Jaynne Aster, Nikki O'Halloran, Charlaine Avery, Lisa Ingvallsen and Elizabeth Nethery for their support and assistance in producing this document. Additionally the SOLO Advisory Committee, the Canadian National Crime Prevention - Community Mobilization Program, the Vancouver Foundation, Athabasca University/MediaCan and Parents Against Sexual Abuse have all been instrumental in turning this idea into a Project. Lastly, David and Conor have been silent contributors to this project since it began. Their support is woven into each page. Merlyn Horton SOLO Project Coordinator February 2003 Safe OnLine Outreach Project February 3, 2003 Introduction to the Curriculum Dear Reader, The curriculum you hold in your hands was produced in a former pottery studio in the middle of a coastal rain forest in British Columbia, Canada; the physical launch pad for this examination of a virtual issue. It is the result of three years of research. This introduction is intended to outline a context for the curriculum and to give you an overview of how to use this curriculum, who should present this curriculum and how appropriate audiences might be chosen. Context The philosophical foundation for this curriculum, and indeed for the Safe OnLine Outreach Project, is the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC)1. The CRC is one of four Conventions created by the United Nations to further the goal of recognizing the inherent dignity and rights of all members of the human family2.

Back then, online to the average user meant a telephone connection directly to either another computer or to an online service, such as CompuServe or AOL. The Internet now dominates all online activity. In popular parlance, the Internet is synonymous with the World Wide Web, although it is much more, as we’ll explain in this book. The Internet can be described generally as a “network” of networks. It is a transportation vehicle for applications. In fact, the visual representations of the Net look like a road map. If lines are drawn between each connection, between larger and larger connections, and between smaller and smaller ones, the end result is a web of connections—a virtual road map. This book is divided into four rough sections. The first is for beginners. It is to get anyone up to speed quickly with the information needed about the Web. Each chapter has recommended Web sites (to type the address, or Uniform Resource Locator [URL] into your Web browser) to help direct you. The second section has more detailed information about downloads, email, secu- rity, and information on virus protection. The third part is about how to create a Web site, Web tools, blogging, and what you can add to your Web site (such as streaming media, RSS feeds, and XML, among other things). The fourth part is by far the densest.
