20. People like you make it
uncool for teens to say they
use Facebook.
28. Snapchat
• Send
images and videos to
friends with a time limit of
how long they can see it.
• Two
main issues revolve
around sexting and that there
are ways for pictures to be
saved.

30. Kik
•
Alternative to SMS text messaging - no
messaging limits or fees.
•
Messaging is mostly private.
•
Prompted to invite everyone in your phone’s
contact list.
•
Other issues arise with apps within Kik.
•
Example: OinkText allows you to submit
your username (or real name) to connect
with others on Kik.

Users anonymously post their
secrets as images with text.

Can view images online but
need the app to interact.

People who post are looking
for likes and comments.

35. Ask.fm
•
Probably the most common site that our
District has seen issues with.
•
Post a question and receive answers.
•
The person who posts can decide
whether or not to allow anonymous
content.
•
Anonymous content leads to LOTS of
concerns and instances of
cyberbullying.

36. Vine
•
6 second looping video clips
•
Can have private or public
account; public by default.
•
Concern is the ease of finding
inappropriate content.

37. Instagram
• Share
images or 15 second
videos publicly or privately.
• Content
is public by default.
• Inappropriate
content is
prohibited by their terms of
service, but that doesn’t
mean it doesn’t exist.

38. Twitter
• Microblogging
site (140
characters or less)
• Great
for short summaries of
what is going on in the world.
• Easy
to hit send - not always
recommended in the heat of
the moment.

39. Why are these apps
appealing?
Students like the “privacy” - no different
then when you decided to pass a note
instead of talk to someone.
41. What can you do?
•
Talk with your kids.
•
Do they use these apps?
•
If so, how do they use these apps?
•
How are others using the apps?
42. What can you do?
•
Know all of their passwords and/or
device passcodes.
•
There are a variety of apps and ways
to monitor devices - depends on the
type of device.
