A focus on child safety is among the top state laws taking effect at the start of 2013. In many states, new laws take effect on Jan. 1, 2013
Now It’s Your Turn With all this new legislation, it should be a reminder that if the government is concerned about the safety of your kids online, you should be concerned too.
===> It is ultimately the parents’ responsibility to protect their children both off line and online. <===
Gust MEES's insight:
IMHO: There is ONLY 1 solution ===> Education needs (a MUST) to teach the kids up from the early years about how to get protected, the practice!
I have prepared already FREE courses and advice on HowTo:
In case if that advice couldn't apply for what ever reason, here is solution 2:
===> In ANY case, the Governement and Education SHOULD be involved, their responsibility as in e-Learning and with "Bring Your Own Device" (BYOD) the kids work with Internet and MUST have BEST protection and BEST protected aerea where ever they go online! <===
Thus meaning: Internet-Safety (theory) and Cyber-Security knowledge (practice) are a MUST to teach to the kids!
I will publish soon a new blog (FREE course) on HowTo explain in depth, stay tuned and follow here:

I agree that some measures are needed to protect children from the harms that can come with the internet. However, I do believe there is only so much that the government can do before it begins to affect citizens freedom. How will these new laws affect internet users? Will it be a positive move on the governments part?

I think this is a good and bad idea. I think it's by far an invasion of privacy but i also believe that it will save a lot of lives and that overrules invasion of privacy. So it's probably not a bad idea considering cyber bullying has only gotten worse.

I agree that this is a good idea for the government to keep children safe on the internet. People are becoming more violent and violating a lot of people's personal business on the internet. I believe that the internet is becoming more unsafe.

Here at Educon yesterday, I had the chance to learn a bit more about design thinking from David Jakes. David's central point was that schools and teachers often get stuck in a "Yeah, but..." mindset when thinking about change.
Of course, we'd have to work to take active steps to redefine almost everything about our schools if a culture of "Do" is really going to be possible. ===> Grading will need to change -- from a focus on content mastery to a focus on demonstration of an ability to apply content in novel situations <===

Planet Nutshell produces short animated videos to explain products, services, and concepts. One of their series of videos is all about the Internet and Internet safety for K-12 students. The series is called NetSafe and it has 17 episodes that were produced for the Utah Education Network. The videos are labeled with grade levels so that students in high school don't watch videos designed for K-3 students. Thefirst video in the series is an explanation of what the Internet is in terms that K-3 students can understand.

Do your students know how they learn best?
Learning is a lifelong process. Use this on-line project to prepare your students for their learning journey, helping them to understand that learning is a process not just a product. They will develop a variety of skills through the exploration of a variety of learning models and styles to determine what works best for them. Take them outside their comfort zones to develop weaknesses and become well rounded learners. Students will be armed with a range of tools that will assist them in becoming independent and responsible for their own learning. This programme provides support for the transition from Year 6 to Year 7 by developing common understandings and language.

Video creation projects are some of my favorite things to do with students. I like video projects for a number of reasons not the least of which is that students generally enjoy them too. I like video projects because when they're organized properly students have to write, research, produce, and revise just as they would if they were writing a story or research paper. The difference is that shared finished video projects have the potential to reach many more people than a well-written essay does. Another bonus is that I can invite my administrators into my classroom to watch a few short videos and they can quickly see what my students have been doing.

Changes in education occur frequently: new programs and initiatives, new standards and assessments, new state and federal mandates. But none of these represents a true paradigm shift. This isn’t surprising, considering that innovation, responsible risk-taking, and teacher leadership are rarely encouraged, valued, or supported in education. Of course, there are pockets of teachers and schools that are doing these things, but it’s certainly not the norm.
So what needs to change to ensure that all 21st-century students are learning to the best of their abilities? Our education system needs to embrace—not just give lip service to—a culture driven by learning, high-performing teachers, and transformative technology.

Should we be teaching children how to learn as well as what to learn? Well, duh! as the children say.
This task they struggle with, despite prompts from the teacher. ‘Haven’t you learnt anything??’ The student perception that nothing is learnt at school is a telling indictment of our content-driven curriculum which turns a budding 11 year old learner into a passive, spoon-fed test taker by 16.
Little wonder that we despair of our post-16 student’s ability to think for themselves at AS level.
The idea for the ‘learning to learn’ lessons developed from early work with raising standards groups in Year 11 where accelerated learning techniques and learning style strategies seemed to improve confidence and performance. My theory was why don’t we catch them before the rot sets in?
Trying to create a ‘learning’ school at a successful well-established comprehensive with a stable staff profile has been fascinating and a truly ‘learning’ experience. We have made some progress, we have had some resistance from staff but, most importantly, the students have really enjoyed the experience.
