About Public and Protected Tweets

About Public and Protected Tweets | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
Twitter is without a doubt the best way to share and discover what is happening right now.

 

 

 

 

 

What is the difference between public and protected Tweets?

 

When you sign up for Twitter, you have the option to keep your Tweets public (the default account setting) or to protect your Tweets. Accounts with protected Tweets require manual approval of each and every person who may view that account's Tweets.

Don't you just love mobile apps? So do malicious code writers

Don't you just love mobile apps? So do malicious code writers | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
There are some surprising numbers available that tell a dark story about mobile apps and what they can be doing on your device.

 

By now you've read about malicious apps that leak privacy data, but do you realize how serious it really is? If not, you'd better pay attention to the following statistics gathered by Symantec*. And if you think that Google Play is 100% safe, it isn't. I have some data that yields some shocking results about the number of malicious apps waiting to grab your data.

National Curriculum Needs more Attention to Digital Skills | LSE Media Policy Project

National Curriculum Needs more Attention to Digital Skills | LSE Media Policy Project | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it

 

Internet safety has also disappeared entirely from the proposals for the over 14 group. Although it has long been a problem that internet safety and responsible digital use has been taught only in secondary schools, this is a curious and disturbing reversal. Now the proposal is to teach it only in primary schools. Ask any secondary school if they experience problems with their pupils’ use of internet, phones, social networking etc., and you will receive a resounding yes.

Gust MEES's insight:

Internet-Safety ALONE isn't enough anymore, there is ALSO a MUST for teaching and learning the basics of Cyber-Security! Both together are a MUST in the 21st Century Education!
