  • Listen at least two times more than you talk
  • Diversify yourself
  • Understand that your worth never changes Follow along…In my hand I am holding a check for a million dollars. I crumble it up. It’s still worth a million dollars. I step on it, it’s still worth a million dollars, I start rubbing it on the floor with my shoe, and it’s till worth a million dollars. You are worth a lot more than a million dollars. In fact, your worth is immeasurable. Therefore, there is no such thing as ‘rejection’ as you’re always worth the same no matter what. Nobody can reject you because nobody can change your worth. Moreover, don’t be afraid of something (rejection) that doesn’t exist. Take risks, ask for what you want, and eventually you will get what you want.
  • Understand that your worth never change
  • Follow the step-ladder to success

  • Digital Access is the topic that talks about how many people in the world have access to technology and internet.
  • Technology needs to be aware and support electronic access for everyone to create a foundation for Digital Citizenship. Digital exclusion of any kind does not enhance the growth of human beings in an electronic society. One gender should not have preferential treatment over another.
  • about how steps should be taken to let the electronic society grow, because of the many benefits that come with internet such as education. Education is better/worse in separate parts of the world, but if every single person in the world was granted access to the internet, there would be a much higher level of educated people, which will lead to a better future. There are less economically developed countries who don't have access to technology like we do. We need to work towards a future where anyone and everyone has access to the internet.

Etiquette-emoticons and acronyms

  • Ironically, the origin of the smiley face is a highly controversial debate. The most accepted belief is that graphic artist Howard Ball of Worcester, MA, created the smiley when asked to design a morale boosting campaign. He started with just the smile, but soon realized disgruntled employees might turn it upside down to a frown, so he added eyes.  Other Emoticons:   :) The classic smile. "I'm happy" or "my meaning is positive." Some Word programs will automatically turn this into a graphic after hitting return.   ;)   The wink. "Just kidding," sarcasm, etc.    :-)  Smiley with a nose.   :-D     Laughing.

  • WDIG'S Internet Safety Tips Keep your passwords private, even from your best friend! Your online service will never ask for them, so neither should anyone else. Use only your log-in name and/or e-mail address when chatting or sending e-mail. Never give out personal information like your name, address, or phone number. Don't share photos of yourself, your family, or your home with people you meet online. Always delete unknown e-mail attachments without opening them. They can contain destructive viruses. If a person writes something that is mean or makes you feel uncomfortable, don't respond. Just log off and tell your parents, who can report it to your online service provider. Remember that nothing you write on the Web is completely private -- including e-mail. So be careful and think about what you type and who you tell. Not everyone is as nice, cute, and funny as they may sound online. Never make plans to meet an online "friend" in person. WHEN IN DOUBT -- always ask your parents for help -- and just LOG OFF if you're not sure! You can always go back online later.

  • A basic understanding of how Internet risks occur helps to place any Internet safety advice in context. Once you identify which factors have a greater impact on you and your family, you can adapt recommendations to your specific needs. Take a moment to consider each of the six factors that contribute to the current online environment:Lack of knowledge. Consumers of every age and at every level of technical expertise lack broad online safety education. This lack of knowledge is not limited to young people, but extends to the general population, including computer specialists who may not know any more than others about online predatory behavior.Carelessness. Even when we ‘know better,’ we make mistakes. Usually those mistakes occur when we’re tired, rushed, or don’t have a complete understanding of the risks involved. This is especially true when there is no obvious cause and effect to help us correct our behavior. When you post information that is used a month later to rob your home, you are not likely to recognize a connection between the two events. In fact, the vast majority of victims of online crime will not recognize that an action they or someone else took online made them vulnerable to a criminal act.Unintentional exposure of (or by) others. It may be a teacher, school, parent, child, friend, employer, or after-school program that provides publicly accessible information that exposes you. Perhaps your own computer (or mobile phone, or other connected device) has been compromised with spyware that enables criminals to collect your personal information. Maybe when a friend’s computer or other Internet-enabled device was lost or stolen, your information fell into the wrong hands.Technology Flaws. Online products and services can expose consumers – either because the companies who offer them fail to secure their customers’ data and are hacked, or because a company fails to build in adequate safeguards and safety messaging into their product to protect consumers.Holes in consumer protection standards. We cannot place the full burden of online safety on consumers.

  • Many American classrooms are almost indistinguishable from those that students' grandparents attended.  Twenty-something students still sit in desks facing the front of the classroom, with textbooks, listening to a generalist teacher.
  • A new perspective is needed.  Americans need to consider the fundamental question:  How can we most effectively teach kids the skills they need? 
  • Traditional schools may be best for some students, while others will thrive in moire high-tech learning centers. 
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Parents can augment or even replace their children's traditional school experience with programs from companies like K-12.  This service allows parents to enroll children in virtual schools or purchase specific curriculum.  Traditional materials—worksheets, books, and other physical materials—are combined with online resources, including multimedia presentations. 
  • If We Can Change the Way We Communicate, We Can Change the Way We Educate
  • Steve Jobs' passing last week encouraged Americans to consider how technology has transformed our lives.  Fueled by the creative genius of men like Jobs, new technology has emerged allowing us to better keep in touch with friends and family, access entertainment and information, and perform work from home or wherever we happen to be at that moment.  While we've successfully integrated technology into our workplaces and personal lives, we've been comparatively slow to apply technology's power to other areas of life, like education.  That needs to change.

  • “Dr. Caudle advises that, in addition to interacting more with their children, parents should also take the necessary preventive measures to create safe places for their children to get away from cyber-bullying. “The home should be a safe place where open discussion is not only allowed, but invited,” says Dr. Caudle. Parental supervision and involvement in a child’s social interactions allows for a sense of comfort and protection from bullying. ”
  • “Dr. Caudle also notes that one must not forget about the bullies themselves. Often, bullying is a cry for help and can usually be traced to a time when the bully was in fact a victim of this type of behavior. Thus, creating a safe environment where one’s child feels comfortable enough to talk about being bullied can help put a stop to bullying before it ever starts.”
  • “According to Dr. Caudle, in order to prevent cyber-bullying, parents must be actively involved in their children’s cyber lives. “Communication with one’s children is the key to bully prevention,” says Dr. Caudle. So send them a friend request on Facebook. Play some XBOX Live—or another system with online gaming—with them. Parents who are proactively involved with their children’s interactions online are subsequently able to monitor these interactions more closely. Therefore, such parents will be exponentially more informed with regard to what bullies, if any, exist in their children’s lives, both online and off. ”

  • Teen Safety on the Internet More and more teenagers are logging on to the Internet every day. Although the Internet is a great source for research projects and other information, there are also dangers involved with surfing the Web. For example, a study conducted in 2000 found that 25 percent of kids 10 to 17 years of age received unwanted pornographic material.The Web allows you to be completely anonymous. Someone who says that he is a 15-year-old boy may actually be a 50-year-old man pretending to be a teen for inappropriate reasons. As a result, agreeing to meet in person with someone you met over the Internet is extremely dangerous, as this can result in sexual assault or even murder. How to Stay Safe on the Internet E-mail Safety Chat Rooms Assessing a Web Site Blogging How to Stay Safe on the Internet Never give out personal information, such as your name, home address or phone number, the name of your school, pictures, credit card numbers or the names of your parents without permission from your parents.Do not meet in person with someone you met online. Do not give out your password to anyone.In chat rooms, use a name that is not gender-specific so you are less likely to receive pornographic material or other forms of harassment. If you do receive pornographic material, report it to your local police department. Back to top E-mail Safety
  • Do not open links or files from people you do not know.Never respond to e-mails with pornographic or other inappropriate material.Do not respond to advertisements -- this confirms that you have a working e-mail account, and you will only receive more junk e-mail.
