  • “If you wouldn’t say it, do it, or watch it with me in the room, it’s not okay.”
  • Sit down with your kids to create an “acceptable use” policy for your own home—they’re much more likely to follow the rules if they’ve had a say in writing them
  • Even if you enable restrictions, however, this isn’t a “set it and forget it” situation.

  • specify times that they can and can’t use the computer.

      Might be a bit overkill here, but keep the password from the kids might be a good idea.  Still, they can operate off of 3G or 4G on their phones.
  • Do they know, for example, how to ensure that only their friends can see what they’ve posted on Facebook? Do they understand that tweets live on in cyberspace forever?
  • One popular idea is to change the Wi-Fi password for your home network daily, and only give it to your kids when they’ve earned it via whatever rules you’ve determined.
  • ar too many parents don’t bother to check on what their kids are doing online—and the results can be disastrous.
  • Don’t let your teens sleep with their phones or computers
  • keeping desktop computers out of bedrooms.
  • The key to this is that Mom and Dad also have to follow the rules, because kids will always do as you do, not as you say. Try establishing a daily device-free time of just 10 or 15 minutes at the breakfast or dinner table, and see if you feel it has a positive impact on your family.

      Mitra's experiment- what will kids do with a computer?
  • “If you put a computer in front of children and remove all other adult restrictions, they will self-organize around it,” Mitra says, “like bees around a flower.”
  • “The bottom line is, if you’re not the one controlling your learning, you’re not going to learn as well.”
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Theorists from Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi to Jean Piaget and Maria Montessori have argued that students should learn by playing and following their curiosity.
  • The study found that when the subjects controlled their own observations, they exhibited more coordination between the hippocampus and other parts of the brain involved in learning and posted a 23 percent improvement in their ability to remember objects. “The bottom line is, if you’re not the one who’s controlling your learning, you’re not going to learn as well,” says lead researcher Joel Voss, now a neuroscientist at Northwestern University.
  • A similar study at UC Berkeley demonstrated that kids given no instruction were much more likely to come up with novel solutions to a problem.
