Cyberbullying Defined in H.R. 2163 - 0 views

  • Anne Bubnic
     
    Illustrating how important this threat has become, Rep. Linda Sanchez (D-Calif.) and Rep. Kenny Hulshof (R-Mo.) proposed a federal law that would criminalize acts of so-called cyberbullying. In this blog, two national security advisors propose to take it further so that on-line masquerading is also defined and considered. They would also like to see H.R. 2163 increase the penalities when a cyberbully uses a false identity or steals another person's identity when bullying a victim.

Dizzywood Virtual World Enhances Technology Program for Kids - 0 views

  • “Dizzywood’s unique virtual environment offers our kids a wonderful environment in which they can learn important lessons through activities that require thoughtful decision-making. We hope the success of this program offers a model for other youth programs to follow.” 


    The partnership reinforces the findings of two recent studies of elementary school students conducted by UC Davis. The studies observed that children find ways to transform their experiences with technology into fun, highly organized group activities and that technology-based activities can be explicitly designed to foster social reflection and advanced planning among young children. 

  • Dizzywood will be sharing addtional details about the school and YMCA pilot programs on September 4 at the Virtual Worlds conference in Los Angeles, as well as at the Sandbox Summit in New York City on September 28.

    Dizzywood, a virtual world and online game for children ages 8-12, today announced that it has been selected by the YMCA of San Francisco to enhance the youth program's technology curriculum. The YMCA is using Dizzywood's virtual environment to reinforce its program emphasis on activities that promote values such as caring, honesty, respect and responsibility. Children also learn about important issues relating to virtual worlds, such as digital citizenship and online safety, as well as complete storytelling and team-building exercises that emphasize creativity, writing and reading skills, and working together to achieve goals. The YMCA program is similar to the elementary school program that Dizzywood recently completed with the Reed Union School District (Marin County, CA). The highly interactive workshop, which ran from April through June, used virtual activities to reinforce the school's character pillars, which include caring, citizenship, fairness, respect, responsibility and trustworthiness, among other core values.

Text Unto Others... As You Would Have Them Text Unto You - 0 views

  • t's nothing anyone would have thought necessary to
    do only a decade ago, but the concept of citizenship no
    longer exists only within the realm of the physical world.
    With K-12 students seeming to at all times have one foot
    in the real world and one in the virtual, school districts
    are starting to acknowledge a new collective responsibility:
    to teach kids what it means to be a good digital citizen
    and how to go about being one. The answer follows the
    same rules entrenched in the prescription for being a
    good citizen on the ground: Obey the law, have respect
    for others, act civilly and sensibly.

    Schools can teach basic principles of good citizenship to help shape students' behavior in the virtual world.
