Talk to Kids To Keep Them Safe On The Internet (VIDEO) - 2 views

  •  
    Grimes, a internet awareness specialist, has a point! Many careless teens are going on sites such as Facebook and putting things up on the site they aren't going to be able to fix when they decide they regret in! These teens are making careless mistakes that could effect how their life turns out in the future! We need to be careful about what we put on the internet! Being your child's friend on Facebook allows you to view what you need to see without breaking trust with you children! Its a win for both! Quote: "The best thing we can do is teach our kids what the pitfalls are," he explained during his Internet Awareness presentation. "What your kid posts at 15, it is going be searchable when they are 25, 35. Our kids are making mistakes for the whole world to see." "Grimes advised parents to be their child's "friend" on Facebook(NOTview through their child's page, because that would show lack of trust in your children) and see what they are posting online =. Parents should look at their child's "friend" list and find out how many are actually known and not claiming to a friend of a friend. When children are young, they are told not to talk to strangers, however with social networking the warning does not always get followed. " "Cyber Bullying is not a technology problem, it often involves friends or former friends hurting one another. He described Cyber Bullying as a small version of what terrorists do - try to alter lifestyles - in these cases those of individuals or a small group."

    Tom Grimes told parents the Internet and social networking can be wonderful tools but they must be used wisely and their children probably do not understand how to do that and it can put them at risk.

Parents vs Facebook - 1 views

  •  
    The controversial between Facebook crossing the line or being "ok"! A teenage girl goes on FB after coming home past her curfew and drunk. She get grounded for 5 weeks (no friends or parties) ! She goes and makes a petition on FB (1,000 likes to get her ungrounded") Some teenagers amaze me with how stupid they can be online! Don't ya think that the page would infuriate her parents more instead of arguing her "point"?! Teens like her are the reason good parents are so strict about the internet! Quote: "Facebook is not appropriate." opinions.... they go different ways... this is major conflict!

    " When do you need to think about fair use? Some example situations: Uploading materials to CourseWorks or another server. Clipping and copying materials into innovative teaching tools. Posting materials for distance learning. Developing databases of copyrighted works for research. Sharing articles and other materials with colleagues. Developing digital libraries. Placing copies on library reserves." this tells you about when you need to think about fair use while doing something for school, work, or a project.

Q. and A. | How Facebook Use Correlates With Student Outcomes - 3 views

  •  
    Is Facebook a worthless waste of time for students? Does it steal time and energy that they would otherwise spend on homework? Is it focusing their attention on trivia, facilitating unhealthy interactions with peers and teachers, and turning their minds to jelly? Many parents and teachers certainly feel this way.

Zero to Eight: Children's Media Use in America | Common Sense Media - 1 views

  •  
    The study shows that everything from iPods to smartphones to tablet computers are now a regular part of kids' lives, with kids under 8 averaging two hours a day with all screen media. Among the key findings: 42% of children under 8 years old have a television in their bedroom. Half (52%) of all 0- to 8-year-olds have access to a new mobile device, such as a smartphone, video iPod, or iPad/tablet. More than a third (38%) of children this age have used one of these devices, including 10% of 0-to 1-year-olds, 39% of 2- to 4-year-olds, and more than half (52%) of 5- to 8-year-olds. In a typical day, one in 10 (11%) 0- to 8-year-olds uses a smartphone, video iPod, iPad, or similar device to play games, watch videos, or use other apps. Those who do such activities spend an average of 43 minutes a day doing so. In addition to the traditional digital divide, a new "app gap" has developed, with only 14% of lower-income parents having downloaded new media apps for their kids to use, compared to 47% of upper-income parents. Clearly, media has become a staple in young kids' daily lives and influences them in ways we don't yet fully understand. But by getting involved in your kid's media life, you can help them create healthy lifelong patterns that will truly make a difference in their lives

Internet and Computer Addiction: Signs, Symptoms, and Treatment - 1 views

  • Each person’s Internet use is different. You might need to use the Internet extensively for your work, for example, or you might rely heavily on social networking sites to keep in touch with faraway family and friends. Spending a lot of time online only becomes a problem when it absorbs too much of your time, causing you to neglect your relationships, your work, school, or other important things in your life. If you keep repeating compulsive Internet behavior despite the negative consequences in your offline life, then it’s time to strike a new balance
