Young people’s perspectives about their online rights and responsibilities

Young people’s perspectives about their online rights and responsibilities | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
From www.saferinternet.org.uk - February 26, 2013 4:48 AM

The result is the development of primary and secondary school charters of online rights and responsibilities, which are being presented to government today:

Primary school charter of online rights and responsibilities

http://www.saferinternet.org.uk/downloads/Safer_Internet_Day/2013/Primary_school_charter.jpg

 

Secondary school charter of online rights and responsibilities

http://www.saferinternet.org.uk/downloads/Safer_Internet_Day/2013/Secondary_school_charter.jpg

 

The report explores the full findings of the survey and we hope that it offers an insight into the experiences of children and young people online, and highlights to all of us working in this space; parents, teachers, government, industry and those providing the services used, what our responsibilities are as we continue to engage with children and young people.

Pay It Forward - Thanking Teachers - Connected Principals

Pay It Forward - Thanking Teachers - Connected Principals | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
From connectedprincipals.com - February 25, 2013 2:42 PM

So just over a week ago I decided to track down a old teacher of mine……I wanted to tell her that the incredibly positive influence that she had on me way back in High School is still resonating deeply in my life twenty five years later, and that who she is as a person and educator continues to inspire me greatly to this day.


After I wrote that note, I started thinking about all the teachers that I’ve had in my life who have changed me in some way for the better…..or helped shape the person and educator that I am today. I thought about my grade school teachers, my university professors, and all the colleagues that I’ve had over the past 15 years in education, and I came up with a short list of people who have literally been searchlight souls throughout my career……and I wrote to them….. ===> and I thanked them from the bottom of my heart. <===

Gust MEES's insight:

As teachers, we cannot remain behind our desks or in our classrooms, isolated and unsupported. It's not good for our students, our teaching, or ourselves.

 

PLCs give us the opportunity to collaborate and share our expertise, collectively tackling our students' needs. If we use them strategically, they can make a big difference in how we approach our work.

Chadvice - Sex and Violence in Digital Media. Prevention, Help & Couselling

Chadvice - Sex and Violence in Digital Media. Prevention, Help & Couselling | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
From www.saferinternet.at - February 26, 2013 4:34 AM
Ch@dvice is a Belgian-Austrian project which focuses on online chat as a means of state-of-the-art primary help for minor victims of sexual abuse.

 

One of the outcomes of the project is the handbook for educators “Sex and Violence in Digital Media. Prevention, Help & Couselling”, produced by the Austrian Institute for Applied Telecommunications (OIAT).  The handbook contains useful information on media violence and phenomena such as cyber-bullying, sexting and grooming.

 

The resource is primarily meant to be used by teachers, therefore it contains tips on prevention but also how to handle such incidents at school. It also touches the topic of assistance for victims, with a special focus on online assistance. It contains a list of helplines operating in the European network under the Safer Internet Programme of the European Commission. The resource is complemented with 23 practical exercises that can be used in school or in youth work. 

 

 

Since the handbook has been created in the framework of a EU Daphne III project in cooperation with partners from Belgium, ===>  it is available in 4 language versions: English, German, French and Dutch. <===

Twitter is a fantastic tool. I'm using with my class. We have a secure account so not everyone can see us but we can see that is happening in the world.

Try something new with your kids every day! Find tips on reading, learning, and raising a well-rounded child.

 

Make a point of writing your child’s name in the books that are hers to keep, in simple block letters. In part, this helps her begin to recognize the symbols that she’ll eventually learn as the unique sequence of letters that make up her name.

Erin Larcey's curator insight, December 8, 2013 3:26 PM

Here we have an example of how global learning will benefit students. By allowing students to "compete" amongst eachother, you allow them to have a motivation to learn something other then simply for a grade. Then the students will be able to share their work between eachother and hopefully in the end recieve a prize. of course we can't always give prizes, but there is a certain amount of pride that students will take in their work. By doing so, and being able to share their work with students who are in the same situation as them they will not only be able to sypathize with the efforts that the other students are making (because they themselves are experiencing similar issues), but they will also encourage eachother by showing how they are exploring their learnings. Allowing students to interact with eachother and share the progress they made is one of the biggest positives about global classrooms. If this is done, students can then share how they became so successful and will be able to share those techniques.

New Anti-Piracy System to Hit U.S. Internet Users on Monday | 21st Century Learning and Teaching | Scoop.it
From mashable.com - February 24, 2013 6:39 PM
Starting Monday, most U.S. Internet users will be subject to a new anti-piracy system that could slow their Internet speeds to a crawl.

 

The CAS, designed as an "educational" service to combat casual piracy in the U.S., has been criticized as designed purely for corporate interests, at the expense of the average Internet user. While it doesn't require ISPs to cut off Internet access to repeat pirates — as is the case in France and New Zealand — it will issue escalating punishments to suspected pirates, severely reducing their connection speeds after five or six offenses.

With these offenses, it could serverely damage an online industry because of a select few individuals because the industries aren't making as much money. I personally think that this will backfire, like every other, as I like to call it, "chasing ghosts" operation the Government has taken on. I'd say whenever the Government declares war on an aspect of economics, it will fail. The Government will hurt consumers because of someone doing perceptively unlawful acts, while there could be legislation out there that could not affect innocent internet users with people who have engaged in Online Piracy, I have yet to see it and every piece of legislation has proven to be behind the ball and easily able to get around for people who choose not to abide by these laws.
