From
the teacher’s comments on the video yesterday, do you think that it is true
that your generation cannot stay on task, cannot communicate face to face, and
has trouble with long assignments due to the immediate feedback you are used to
from texting, im’ing, and the internet? WHY or WHY NOT – At Least 50 words and
use examples please
Think
about Autumn Edows, the goth girl with the racy website, why do you think so
many people create “other” identities on the internet or lie about their age
and looks on the internet? Is it healthy? Is it OK to do that? Why or why not?
EXPLAIN
Obviously,
having your parents stand over you on chat, read all your emails, and check
your Facebook, Twitter, etc… accounts is
mortifying. SO—If watching 24/7 is not the answer, what do you think is the best way to protect children even
teenagers from predators on the internet? Be specific
Considering
that there are sites telling kids how to be sick (anorexia etc…). how to commit
suicide, and how to do harmful things…do you think there should be some sort of
age control on web content? What could be done to keep young, easily influenced
minds from going to such sites?
From
the video yesterday, does a middle schooler REALLY understand life well enough
to commit suicide? Do you think that 13 year old would have committed suicide
had it not been for the cyber bullying and the other kid on the web
coaching/telling him to do it?
What
do you think is the most common form of cyberbullying? Is it real? Have you cyberbullied or have you ever been
cyberbullied?
“Sexting”
is a huge deal right now after the media has (finally) recognized that
teenagers do it and is highlighting some consequences of it (blackmail, removal
from teams, even suicide in on case), and because police departments are now
prosecuting students for exposure and child pornography when caught doing this.
There are even new PSA’s (Public Service Announcements) about it airing. WHY do
you think it is so common and what do you think about the law cracking down on
it? Do you think it will go away? Has it already “calmed down” from the first
sets of teenagers with the camera phones and text messaging?
Do
you think the internet, text messaging, Facebook, and social networking has
ruined the concept of “privacy” or just brought about a new way of living where
you make your own time for privacy or are less concerned about what is private?
What IS private in a teenager’s life now?
I
went on vacation with a person that could not even look at a sight or enjoy the
moment because they were too busy putting the pictures or the status on
Facebook with their cell phone. Also, I have heard many college students refer
to their romantic relationships as official
but not “Facebook Official” yet. Do
you know people who seem to not find things important unless they can Facebook
it, like it makes it more somehow? Why do people, some
people, have the need to tell everything sometimes?
Do you think sometimes you should do things and NOT Facebook or Text about it?
