Chapter 7

In chapter 7 we discussed online safety and security. I believe today's society is wanting to blame the internet for children's behavior. Atleast once a month it seems you hear on the news about someone being bullied or stalked on myspace or facebook. My biggest issue with that is with both of those social networking sites a person can block people from sending them messages or contacting them. They can also block their page from everyone except their friends and they can make their friends only people they know. I am a firm believer that social network bullying can be stopped if the person chooses to stop it. There are so many ways to protect children today from online predators, some parents just need to be made aware of how to do this.

Digital Storytelling Project

I have now completed my digital storytelling project and can tell I over thought the whole process. I had a lot of fun putting it together, although I do hate to hear my recorded voice. I think that this project will be a neat idea for students to use in a classroom for different subjects. I think it will turn a research topic into a creative project.
