Today's students are digital natives, their communication with peers dependent on social networking websites, blogging, and chat rooms. As vital as these tools are for appropriate learning and communication, they can be equally inappropriate when misused. Cyber-bullying, sexual predation, and sending of inappropriate photos and messages are among the most common forms of abuse children encounter. For young people today, one impulsive click can generate unintended consequences for which students are often totally unaware of. The panel describes why young people can be at risk, tips for parents on how to have meaningful and "pre-emptive" conversations about internet safety, and how it is vital that students feel comfortable approaching parents and teachers about problems they encounter online. | Scheduled Dates/Times: | None Available |
