  • Digital Divide is probably the most important and simplest topic
  • They can get internet on computers by joining a local wi-fi like at a coffee shop, at school, or at a business. Digital Access is how everyday people access their computers and the Internet.
  • 72% of U.S. adults now have Broadband access. Those who don't get it go to work, public libraries, schools, and as well as on their cell phones.
  • mostly go to websites that have games for kids to play. Millsberry, Build a bear, Webkinz, and Club penguin are all places that children could create their own animated avatar type stuff
  • Censorship is when you are not allowed to do something and if you do you will be in trouble by the government. For example, in China they have censorship and they are not allowed to look certain things up on the internet
  • Digital Divide is basically having a line and putting the people that don’t have access to the internet on one side and the ones that do on the other side.

      The digital divide here in south Georgia USA would be like those people who have high speed internet vs. those who have dial up or don't have INternet that are in the country.
  • one of the main problems for adults and kids with accessing the Internet around the world is, simply, their location. People who live in the city would have no problem finding a computer to go on the Internet and do as they want,

    This website is played by a lot of students who enjoy it.

Digital literacy and the classroom « Rhondda's Reflections - wandering around... - 1 views

  • We don’t leave our students alone and expect that they will figure out the disciplines of science, maths, English, etc. We guide them through each of these disciplines, educating them on the principles that work and help them gain knowledge and learning as they negotiate their way through the many ideas and directions made known to them.
  • Why is it, then, that schools expect students to work out effective digital strategies on their own
  • We need to help our students develop the skills and processes to negoitate their way through safely and effectively using the option that are available today and for the future developments.
  •  
    I love Rhondda's reflections on digital citizenship. She makes very profound, reasonable arguments as a teacher in the trenches and she has my vote 100% on what she's saying!!

An Update to the Children's Internet Protection Act (CIPA) « Thumann Resources - 0 views

  •  
    New rules from the CIPA act in the US.
  •  
    Lisa thuman blogged about the recent changes to the Children Internet Protection Act (CIPA) -- to those people who have rejected social networking and chats -- you're required to "educate minors on appropriate online safety including cyberbulling and interacting with others on social networking sites and in chat rooms." How are you going to do this without using safe alternatives and then coach them on it? This is REQUIRED in the US if you get erate funds. Get out there and get busy -- time for pushback. Lisa Thuman's article on this is an excellent read.

  • n the US, ethnicity is an issue; whites and Asians access the internet more than the African Americans and Hispanics. In Kenya, it is probably where you live that decides your destiny with technology, for even with education and good income, reliable internet services are available only in the major towns.
  • Overall, 59 per cent of Americans have access to the internet, seven per cent in Asia and only 1.4 per cent in Africa (Internet World State, 2005).
