    This course is all about understanding: understanding what's going on inside your computer when you flip on the switch, why tech support has you constantly rebooting your computer, how everything you do on the Internet can be watched by others, and how your computer can become infected with a worm just by turning it on. In this course we demystify computers and the Internet, along with their jargon, so that students understand not only what they can do with each but also how it all works and why. Students leave this course armed with a new vocabulary and equipped for further exploration of computers and the Internet. Topics include hardware, software, the Internet, multimedia, security, website development, programming, and dotcoms. This course is designed both for those with little, if any, computer experience and for those who use a computer every day.

  • The goal is to be both educational and entertaining. So KidZui has mapped out 8,600 channels of what kids are interested in, ranging from photosynthesis to Miley Cyrus. And we relate all of those categories to each other so kids can independently and safely browse, search and share.

      Social and ethnical issues: control; security Parents can easily control kids from going to bad sites.
  • Our goal with KidZui is to focus on the light, not the darkness. Of course, we keep all of the bad content and the bad people out of KidZui. But we focus on letting kids who want to discover, who want YouTube, to get YouTube videos that are fun and appropriate for them ... I think it is indicative of just how much kids want to be online.
