      safety has become a major issue with social networks all over the web.
  • 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.

  • in order to prepare students for the modern workforce, education must go beyond core curricula and teach "critical thinking and problem solving skills, communication skills, creativity and innovation skills, collaboration skills, contextual learning skills, and information and media literacy skills."

      Lisa Lowder on 16 Feb 13
       
      This article is credible. While I am not interested in learning about nuclear education the fact that it is a distance education program featuring on line tools is relevant. This is a well written article from a professional journal. It is authored by professors and includes cited references.
  • Lisa Lowder on 16 Feb 13
     
    This article explains the use of web-based tools for online eduction of nuclear engineers, but the information is relevant to Full Sail students as well. In the article they evaluate several web based tools but the interesting thing is that in order for the students to use the tools effectively the teachers must be comfortable with the use of these tools.

  • Because Egyptian television and radio were state-controlled, the internet became a means to publicize the demonstrations and evade state censorship. As a result, the Egyptian and other Arab uprisings have largely been described as a series of “Twitter” or “Facebook” revolutions.

  • consequences of this action actually increased mobilizations.
  • The disruption of cellphone [sic] coverage and Internet on the 28th exacerbated the unrest in at least three major ways. It implicated many apolitical citizens unaware of or uninterested in the unrest; it forced more face-to-face communication, i.e., more physical presence in streets; and finally it effectively decentralized the rebellion on the 28th through new hybrid communication tactics, producing a quagmire much harder to control and repress than one massive gathering in Tahrir
  • While the Egyptian government attempted to use digital technologies as a way to repress the uprisings, networks of activists from around the world quickly mobilized in solidarity with the pro-democracy movement.
  • Telecomix, a decentralized organization of Internet activists, quickly organized to provide free fax numbers and dial-up internet access to activists in Egypt so they could publicize the events and demonstrations occurring across the country.
  • echnologies still remain an important tool in transmitting information and spreading news of repression.
  • The Tor Project, a free piece of software that allows users to anonymously connect to the internet and evade state surveillance, has been critically important in allowing activists to avoid identification and repression.
  • digital-information technologies both provide activists with opportunities to communicate and network while also enabling new modes of repression, censorship, and surveillance.

      1) Content - The content on this page is good. It can be easily read and understood. The layout allows it to be read while still adding adds for other related articles. It was uploaded 3/15 and updated later the same day. 2) Credibility - The Author itself I'm not familiar with, but it also appears to be an article by Reuters. Reuters is an organization that a lot of news agencies use and are widely trusted. 3) Critical Thinking - Because of their references and ties to Reuters you can with most certainly use critical thinking to assume this page is legitimate. 4) Copyright - The website it's self only says 2014 for the copyright. But this article itself was uploaded 3/15/14. Because of their copyright it can be assumed that this article is covered by it. 5) Citation - They do use some outside images and the text itself is from Reuters. But they credit them on the page so there is no infringement. 6) Continuity - This page can only be physically edited by the Huffington Post staff. So the continuity is withheld without errors. 7) Censorship - Because this page is moderated by Huffington post themselves there is a chance that it is edited. Also the comments system seem to be moderated in the regard that you can post what you want but if you offend someone the site admin can take it down. 8) Connectivity - The connectivity to the page is good. Many users can access it at the same time and it can be used as a jumping off point to either paid supported products or additional articles written by Huffington Post. 9) Comparability - You could take the information on this page and check it against numerous sources. I checked Google and came up with many results that either cite the beginning article or copy this article directly. 10) - Context - The context of this page is really good. They maintain the stance that Heineken and Sam Adams are taking without passing judgment, in support or not, for either the companies or the parade organize

And he was thinking, ‘With all of the electricity that’s out there in the walls, why couldn’t some of that just come into the phone so I could get some sleep?’”

  • You’ve been called a “gamer” for as long as you can remember, so you might as well make a career out of it, right? Well, it might all sound like fun and games, but game design has evolved from the days of scribbling a great idea on the back of a napkin into an elaborate process involving a  specialists trained in a variety of disciplines who collaborate and sometimes work long hours to create great computer or video games replete with state-of-the-art animation and visual effects. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 59 percent of multimedia artists and animators, which includes computer and video game designers, are self-employed, often working from home but also in offices. It goes without saying that it is helpful to possess artistic ability and talent, but people lacking in those areas may compensate with robust technical and computer skills, preferred by some employers. Likewise, those who do not have strong computer skills may make up for it through demonstrable artistic talent. The demand for more realistic video games continues to increase, but growth may be tempered by companies hiring lower-paid animators overseas, and by stiff competition as large numbers of game designers enter the field. Individuals interested in pursuing this career may benefit from a solid blend of education, hands-on experience, and a combination of artistic and technical skills. Learn more about working in the field of game design, i.e., what game designers do, how to become a game designer, career paths, and career outlook, in the following infographic.
