[info-tech] LightSpeed / Internet Violations
For those of you that kick kids off the Internet for violating your AUP, what do you do for school related access for projects, research, etc? We use LightSpeed for content filtering which will block their access, but we still want a way to let them on in a very monitored environment. Any suggestions? Right now, we have a few computers in our library with static IP addresses and then a policy applied to those IP addresses, and that works, but didn't know if there was a better way to do it.

Chris- If a student violated the AUP and have either their Internet access, or complete computer access taken away, they are in jeopardy of being removed from that class. Our students are told this up front, and they are well aware of those consequences.

Okoboji revokes their privileges for the regular school day 8am - 3pm. So, they can come in before or after school to complete computer related work. We also have certain circumstances where a student needs access just for a certain time during the day. For instance they are taking a computer apps class. I utilize the Logon Hours in Active Directory to accomplish both things. It isn't perfect (i.e. it only lets you do it on the hour), but it works ok.

If I violate the states DUI rules, they do not care if I need my car to go to work. Why is computer access any different. They may need to find alternate ways of getting assignments done, like at home, the local library, a friends house. There may be exceptions, but those are made on a case by case basis. No different than the courts allowing a DUI violator to have a work permit. My 2 cents. -- We must, however, acknowledge, as it seems to me, that man with all his noble qualities...still bears in his bodily frame the indelible stamp of his lowly origin. ~ Charles Darwin -- Lance L.
