Redundancy
Sep 1 2008, 3:37 AM EDT | Post edited: Sep 1 2008, 3:37 AM EDT
I think this list pretty much covers the basic dangers. Some of the bullets are redundant, and by consolidating them might make the suggestions more powerful. For example:

"Beware of e-mail from people you don't know" and "Don't open e-mail from anyone you don't know"
"Be careful of websites that offer free games..." and "Beware of anyone offering you free things..."

I didn't see this thread until after my class. The redundancies were actually much more obvious to me after I had the list in hard copy form, but by that point I was short on time.

In a way, I hope for some positive benefits to the redundancies: maybe the students will get a better translation out of the different wordings, and maybe they'll cotton on that these things are important when they see similar items twice.

Or maybe it all came out gibberish; hard to say.
