Is there any policy to create and offer safe educational online content?

Knowledge is the only well that shared by humanity through frontiers, barriers and cultures for education and development. During centuries books and paper content with oral knowledge where the main source for education and learning. Thoses sources where known by location and authors and trusted by all communities.

Actually, the educational online content is rich and available anywhere. Is that true? Can we trust all online content? Is there any policy against malicious content? With other questions and inquiries can be asked to be discussed at the global to local levels to create and offer a safe and trust educational environment for learners and mainly pupils.

    Oct 25 2012: There are so many charlatans and imposters posing as experts online. I dont know how I can make a case for the regulation of online education without seeming like one making a case for censorship.
    But anyone interested in helpful learning and productivity should ensure that information assessed online is from credible educational institutions and reliable publishers. One could start with institutions that are known for the quality of their services, then one could check out the references from such sites.

      Oct 25 2012: I think the only regulation trusted are UNESCO, UNICEF and other UN organisations who have experience to work with NGOs and have a real knowledge with a various events through the world. The idea is to reach person who can mobilize widely around a realistic vision to make educational online content safe and secure.

      For the second part of your answer I think it is true for experienced user but for children, pupils and disabled people they need to have a secure and safe environment to learn like books, CD's etc.
