Education, media-literacy-wise, is happening now after school and on weekends and when the teacher isn't looking, in the SMS messages, MySpace pages, blog posts, podcasts, videoblogs that technology-equipped digital natives exchange among themselves.

At that point, I saw education – the means by which young people learn the skills necessary to succeed in their place and time – as diverging from schooling.
-
chools will remain places for parents to put their kids while they go to work, and for society to train a fresh supply of citizen-worker-consumers to be employed by the industries of their time.
-
But the kind of questioning, collaborative, active, lateral rather than hierarchical pedagogy that participatory media both forces and enables is not the kind of change that takes place quickly or at all in public schools.
-
someone needs to educate children about the necessity for critical thinking and encourage them to exercise their own knowledge of how to make moral choices.
-
the basic moral values – is supposed to be what their parents and their religions are responsible for.
-
But the teachable skill of knowing how to make decisions based on those values has become particularly important now that a new medium suddenly connects young people to each other and to the world's knowledge in ways no previous generation experienced.

the ability to differentiate between right and wrong is a huge deal when researching and trying to find good knowledge.. for example if you where to type "blow up" in google you would get all kinds of "JuNK" if you were to specify a noun in the search you could exponentially narrow your "junk" results. "Right vs. Wrong" isnt always pertaining to internet pornography. as said in this article. the principles behind it are what matters as well as your ability to use them.

e teach our kids how to cross the street and what to be careful about in the physical world. And now parents need to teach their kids how to exercise good sense online. It's really no more technical than reminding your children not to give out their personal information to strangers on the telephone or the street. When it comes to helping them learn how to be citizens in a democracy, media literacy education is central to 21st century civic education.

At the same time that emerging media challenge the ability of old institutions to change, I think we have an opportunity today to make use of the natural enthusiasm of today's young digital natives for cultural production as well as consumption, to help them learn to use the media production and distribution technologies now available to them to develop a public voice about issues they care about.

The media available to adolescents today, from videocameraphones to their own websites, to laptop computers, to participatory media communities like MySpace and Youtube, are orders of magnitude more powerful than those available in the age of the deskbound, text-only Internet and dial-up speeds.
-
Those young people who can afford an Internet-connected phone or laptop are taking to the multimedia web on their own accord by the millions– MySpace gets Google-scale traffic and Youtube serves one hundred million videos a day.

Although the price of entry is dropping, there is still an economic divide; nevertheless, the online population under the age of 20 is significant enough for Rupert Murdoch to spend a quarter billion dollars to buy MySpace.

The campaign reports that 61 percent of 13 to 17 year-olds publish a profile on social networking sites, and one in seven young people receive sexual solicitations over the Internet (70% of which are girls). But kids aren't only the victims. They can be perpetrators, as when it comes to so-called textual harassment" or cyber-bullying.

My curiosity about the prospects for media literacy education in the testing-heavy era of the "No Child Left Behind" Act led me to attended a panel at the NAMLE conference entitled, "Does It Work? Assessing the Effectiveness of Media Literacy in K-12 Education." The panel featured some of the brightest minds in media literacy, including Renee Hobbs, Cyndy Scheibe, Peter Worth and David Kleeman. Yet there was hardly a consensus on how to create a measurement protocol that can determine whether a certain media literacy curriculum is successful.

The technology is based on magnetic induction -- the process used to recharge electric toothbrushes. In the toothbrush, the base has a magnetic coil that generates a magnetic field. A second coil in the toothbrush captures some of that field, inducing an electric current.But electric toothbrushes transfer power only from the primary coil to the secondary one at very close range. Move the brush a short distance from the base, and it won't charge.

WiTricity has signed a technology transfer and licensing agreement with MediaTek, a semiconductor company in Taiwan, to collaborate on systems for wireless charging of mobile handsets, tablet computers, game controllers and other devices, Mr. Giler said.

AFP - RELAXNEWS (English International Version) Two film stars, Michael Douglas and Paul Rudd, are to share the title role in the next film from "The World's End" director Edgar Wright, due 2015. After Robert Redford's stint in "Captain America: The Winter Soldier," Marvel has recruited another legendary actor for an upcoming blockbuster in Michael Douglas. The 69-year-old will become the face of Henry Pym and hand over the Ant-Man moniker to Scott Lang, the new hero played by Paul Rudd. Ant-Man first appeared in print in 1962 and has become the alter ego for a number of Marvel characters; the film sees Lang succeed Pym as the electronics whizz in charge of wearing the Ant-Man mantle, able to shrink, grow, and communicate with insects. Dated for July 31, 2015, "Ant-Man" should also result in the character's addition to the supporting cast of the next Avengers film, set for mid-2018.
