Unit 2:ICT Policies and Safety Issues in
Teaching and Learning
Here is where my presentation begins
SAFETY ISSUES IN ICT
Computer equipment is often connected to lots of
cables: power, network, etc.
If these cables are laying on the floor, they
can cause people to trip over them.
Solution: Place cables inside cable ducts,
or under the carpet / flooring
01
Trailing Cables
02
Split Drinks or Food
If any liquids are split on electrical
equipment, such as a computer,
it can result in damage to the equipment,
or an electric shock to the user.
Solution: Keep drinks and food away
from computers.
03
Overloaded Power Sockets
Plugging too many power cables into a socket
can result in the socket being overloaded,
overheating, and a fire starting.
Solution: Never plug too many cables into a
socket. Always make sure there
are fire extinguishers nearby.
04
Heavy Objects Falling
Many items of computer equipment are
very heavy: CRT monitors, laser printers,
etc. Heavy items can cause serious injury if
they fall on people.
Solution: Make sure equipment is placed
on strong tables / shelves.
