FACT:
            92 % of children now
              have an online
We all   have a digital foot
           footprint before they                  print.

                                     footprint" from Wikipedia
MYTH:

Young people don’t care
    about privacy.
What do young people think?
                         Every teenager wants privacy, every
                        single last one of them, whether they
                       tell you or not, wants privacy...And just
                        because teenagers use internet sites
                          to connect to other people doesn't
                           mean they don't care about their
                              privacy." - Waffles, 17, NC

Strategies. danahboyd and Alice Marwick, Microsoft Research, 2011.
More than half of online teens
     have decided not to post
   something online because they
   were concerned it might reflect
    badly on them in the future.


                              62% of teens restrict their
                             profiles to be viewable only
                                       by friends.

However…
MYTH:


  Kids are naturals at technology.
They are “digital natives” and unlike
       me, they just, 'get it.'
The Reality...




 Confidence ≠ Wisdom
Our Favorite Teachable Moments:

• YouTube to MP3 Converter
• Craigslist: Is it safe?
• Oops…I sent the text where?
• How long has YouTube been around?
• Do colleges REALLY look at my digital
  footprint?
• Mockipedia
Bullying Prevention: What Really Works

What’s the reality?
  – Inconsistent statistics lead to misconceptions.
  – “Scary” statistics may increase bullying
    behavior.
  – Accurate facts and information decrease
    bullying.
Bullying Prevention: What Really Works
                              Talk with
                           kids…and start
                               young.
              Empower
              witnesses
                 and
             bystanders.

Editor's Notes

  1. Experience and backgroundWhat we do at CWAIt is important to be active in the digital world with our kids
  2. Safely: We’re doing a good job with messaging this.Responsibly: ongoing conversation with students as they grow and experience new things.The impact of media on our lives forces all of us to be critical consumers of media.Look at the source.Are we being sold something? Is (fill in topic here) really a crisis? Just because you can doesn’t mean you should!
