  • Some educators say the social-media bans in schools are overkill and privacy fears have overshadowed the positive educational opportunities social media can offer students.
  • It is known, too, that students also access social-networking sites and post to them during class time via mobile phones or by circumventing the network blocks.
  • ''Ineffective policy is to ban use; prohibition has never worked,''
  • doesn't matter how impoverished a young person may be, they will have access to social networks daily, they find ways to get online through public libraries, internet cafes, at their friend's house or on their mobile
  • Common advice for teachers is to be familiar with privacy settings on social-networking sites, perhaps maintain a private and professional account (although this is not permitted on Facebook) and to set a search-engine alert for their own name, so adverse mentions can be detected early and dealt with.
  • So can, or should, a teacher be Facebook friends with a student?

    We, a young, dynamic and public-spirited team of activists at Happiness Ville, are constantly brainstorming ideas and ways to bring about the change we always talk about and hardly put into action. Our aim is to eradicate the 'mal' out of malnutrition, 'ill' out of the illiteracy, 'in' out of the injustice and the 'issues' out of the environment.

  • I think what we're collectively, globally, realizing is that digital citizenship actually brings youth back into the online-safety discussion (if they were ever really there). It's about empowerment as much as protection (yes, it's protective too – see this). So it's more relevant to and respectful of them as active agents for their own, their friends', and their online communities' good.
  • But there still isn't complete consensus on its definition.
  • digital citizenship needs at least to drive the youth-online-safety discussion.
