Cybersecurity, Safety and Ethics Education Falls Short in U.S. Schools - 4 views

  • The survey also found a high reliance on shielding students instead of teaching behaviors for safe and secure Internet use. More than 90% of schools have built up digital defenses, such as filtering and blocking social network sites, to protect children on school networks. While these defenses may help reduce the online risks children face at school, they do not prepare students to act more safely and responsibly when accessing the Internet at home or via mobile devices.

    The study illuminates that there is no cohesive effort to provide young people the education they need to safely and securely navigate the digital age and prepare them as digital citizens and employees.

What Kids Really Do Online (Despite What Parents Think) - 0 views

  •  
    U.S. moms and dads estimate that their children spend only two hours a month on the internet, but kids say they actually spend 10 times more time - or 20 hours - according to a recent study, the first Norton Online Living Report by Symantec (via Marketing Charts). 41% of respondents age 13-17 say their parents have no idea what they do online, and only 33% of parents worldwide say they set parental controls and monitor their children's online activities.

Technology: The Mistakes Kids Make - 1 views

  •  
    On the one hand, today's technology - particularly the Internet and cell phones - provides kids wonderful opportunities to learn, recreate, and communicate. On the other, it also provides the means for kids to make and compound mistakes, some of which can lead to trouble. The kinds of mistakes we're talking about are mostly errors in judgment, some large, some small, but all of them things you should think about.

OnlineFamily.Norton [Review] - 0 views

  • For years, Symantec has included a parental-control element in its Norton Internet Security and Norton 360 packages. It's so limited as to be nearly useless, so for years I've given it poor ratings. OnlineFamily.Norton is a huge improvement, on a par with the best existing parental-control programs. Now both suites offer it as an alternative to the old, lame Norton component. Users should definitely choose it instead. The new free offering is a strong contender, matching almost all the features of the top paid parental control systems.
  •  
    Symantec's new OnlineFamily.Norton (free until 2010) emphasizes communication over control. Symantec gathered an Advisory Board of experts in education, parenting, and online safety to oversee the product's direction. The results are impressive.
