Shaping Online Profiles and 
CyberAwareness
Dirty Picture Lyrics 
I could dream of ways to see you 
I could close my eyes to dream 
I could fantasize about you 
Tell the world what I believe 
But whenever I'm not with you 
It's so hard for me to see 
I need to see a picture of you 
A special picture just for me, yeah 
So take a dirty picture for me 
Take a dirty picture 
Just take a dirty picture for me 
Take a dirty picture 
Just send the dirty picture to me 
Send the dirty picture 
Just send the dirty picture to me 
Send the dirty picture 
Snap.

  1. Introduction... Me as a parent of a nine year old girl....given her a cell phone
  2. Raising Kids in Our Digital World Media and technology are evolving at a dizzying pace, bringing opportunities and challenges that are new to this generation. Many of you probably embrace the creative and educational potential of the new media reality but are also concerned about the amount of time that your kids spend with media and how it may impact how they make decisions, learn, and socialize. This presentation will give you an overview of today's new media landscape, the impact that it has on kids (both the positives and unintended negative consequences), and, most importantly, how you can help kids be safe, smart, and responsible online.

This presentation will give you an overview of today's new media landscape, the impact that it has on kids (both the positives and unintended negative consequences), and, most importantly, how you can help kids be safe, smart, and responsible online.
  5. Overview Let's start by getting on the same page about what we mean by media and how kids are using it. "Media" refers to the messages and images that we consume and create, as well as the technology used to consume and create these messages. This includes TV, movies, video games, books, magazines, the Internet, cell phones, and more. Kids spend a lot of time interacting with media. The average 8- to 18-year-old spends more time watching TV and movies, playing games, or playing online than they do in school or with parents – an average of 6.5 hours per day. That's more than 45 hours each week! Even young children are spending a lot of time with media: Kids 6 and under spend 2 hours with screen media a day. Click One: Kids in elementary school use media to play. This could include gaming or playing in virtual worlds like Club Penguin, Whyville, or Webkinz. They're also exploring with creative tools like Microsoft Paint or creating videos, slideshows, photoshop Older kids use media to socialize, do homework, express themselves, and connect to the world. They also text message – a LOT! (The average teen sends 2,200 texts each month, 80 per day. – Nielsen, 2008) Older kids are also downloading and streaming content – such as getting a song from iTunes or watching a TV show on Hulu.com. In this way, they're consuming content on their own schedule, and they've gotten used to having control over what they can access and when. Young people no longer make a distinction between their "digital life" and the "real" world. It's all one and the same. As parents, many of us are overwhelmed by this new media environment, even if we engage with it on our own. To help understand how it's impacting our kids, let's start by taking a look at what's so different about today's new media and technology environment than what's come before.
  6. Content First, it presents challenging content. Whether it's TV, movies, video games, or user-generated videos on YouTube, content today pushes many boundaries for parents and kids. Traditional media like TV and movies are pushing the boundaries of what's acceptable, and many parents feel that ratings systems aren't always reliable. (Have you ever been sucker punched by a PG-rated movie that had some content you didn't want your kids to see?) Online and user-generated media are especially challenging because there are few barriers to what can be posted and made available, and that can make for upsetting content. For example, if you were to search for "girls fighting" on YouTube, you'd have 160,000 videos to choose from! Since the Internet makes accessing all kinds of content even easier, it's a daunting task for parents to rein in the media that their kids consume.
  7. Mobile Media is constantly present. It's everywhere you go, in the form of mobile devices and WiFi. We're also constantly surrounded by screens in SUVs and airline seats and even at the gas pump. When it comes to kids and mobile devices, 46% of tweens use cell phones (Nielsen, 2008; tween = 8-12); that number leaps to more than 80% by their teens (CTIA, 2008). Even young children have access – 93% of 6- to 9-year-olds live in a home with at least one cell phone (Sesame Workshop, 2007). Shazam....buy a song on itunes in seconds
  8. Slide 5: Interactive Young people are not passive with new media. They create media and collaborate using these new tools. It's interactive in two ways: They interact with the media itself – think about something like American Idol, where kids engage with the program and determine the outcomes. They interact with others through media on social networking sites, in online games, or through instant messaging. Each time they play a game, take a picture, post a video, or even put up a wall post on Facebook, they create something that never existed before. This is a shared experience – kids love to participate in communities where media is created.
  9. Scale Part of what's different about kids interacting with media and creating media in these spaces is that it gives them the opportunity to reach a vast audience. This can be hard to wrap our heads around, but think of this: Facebook has 250 million active users (as of August 2009). If it were a country, it would be the fourth largest in the world, between the United States (300 million) and Indonesia (230 million)! This means that kids can reach this vast audience quickly – for example, in the case of a child posting a video to YouTube that they hope will get a lot of views. But it can also mean that interactions that kids might think are just between friends can be seen by a wider audience than they might intend.
  10. Anonymity The online audience is invisible. Kids don't always know who's on the other end of a conversation or who's leaving comments on something they've posted. Kids can be anonymous themselves, which can make them feel free to do or say things they wouldn't in person.
  11. What You Need to Know to Raise Media-Smart Kids Media isn't going anywhere – in fact, it's only going to evolve. That's why it's more important than ever for kids to learn the skills they need to successfully use and create media. Just because kids are fluent in new technologies doesn't mean that they understand the implications of their actions – their abilities outstrip their judgment. Parents need to step in and give kids the skills and perspective they need to make the best out of it. Keeping up with your kids can be difficult, but with a little bit of common sense, you can manage your kids' media lives and help them be healthy. The following tips are easy to use and will make a big difference.
  12. Basic Rules of the Road Here are some basic rules of the road to get you started. Click One: Embrace Their World Using digital media is part of what it means to be a kid today, and if you share your kids' enthusiasm for it, they're more likely to come to you for help navigating it. So figure out how to text, try uploading a video, and check out what that gaming box can do besides play games. A great way to do this is to ask your child for help and then do these activities together. Click Two: Encourage Balanced Use A general rule of thumb is that the amount of time that kids spend with media and technology should be equal to time they spend doing other activities, whether that's hanging out with their friends face-to-face, spending time with their family, playing sports, or doing their chores. To help you and your kids manage their time, you can have them keep a media log to keep track, set a kitchen timer, or use the Common Sense Family Media Agreement. Click Three: Try to Keep Media in Public Spaces With WiFi and mobile devices, it's hard to say that you should keep media out of kids' bedrooms – though that's easier to do with younger children. Encourage older kids to use media in areas that are easier for you to monitor, like the living room or kitchen. If you want to go farther, you can make a "no cell phone" or "laptop" policy at bedtime, and actually remove the devices from your kids' rooms at a specified time. This will help them get much-needed sleep. Click Four: Discuss Which Sites They Can Visit and What They Can Download Help your kids find age-appropriate media, and discuss which sites they can visit, what they can download, how they can access the Internet, how they can use cell phones, etc. The best way to do this is proactively – don't wait until your kids have been using a device for months before setting some guidelines. If your kids want to visit sites or watch movies that you don't think are appropriate now, it's helpful to give them an idea of when they'll get more privileges and what the terms will be (i.e. getting a little bit older or getting good grades). Help your kids find cool sites, and encourage their creativity. Kids can create amazing things digitally, and so many wonderful sites engage kids in creating works of art – whether it's music, animation, videos, or fan fiction. Get familiar with some of these sites, especially the ever-popular YouTube. Steer kids toward sites that further their interests and your family values. Click Five: No Cyberbullying Remind them that what goes around comes around. They shouldn't say anything to someone that they wouldn't want said to them. And if they wouldn't say something to someone's face, they shouldn't say it (or post it!) online. Don't forget to be a good role model. Kids learn from what we're doing, so if you don't want them texting during dinner or while they're driving, you shouldn't do it, either.
  13. Young kids....need the role models online.....family and friends around the world. Older kids....you become the role model
  14. Protecting Personal Privacy Click One: Explain That Nothing Is Really Private It's very important to talk to your kids about protecting their own privacy – as well as their friends'. It's never too early to have this conversation. Kids need to understand that anything they put online or send to their friends on their cell phones isn't really private: Everything leaves a digital footprint, and whatever gets created never goes away. Anything that kids put out in the digital world can be cut and pasted and spread throughout their entire school – and beyond – with the click of a button. So while kids may not intend for something to go public, it easily can. Click Two: Establish Privacy Settings The most basic thing that kids can do to protect themselves is set up privacy settings on any social networking site. All of the major sites have an area where you can access this information. Kids shouldn't assume that the default state is "private." They need to adjust the settings to limit what other people can see and access. This is especially important for older kids who are on sites like Facebook and MySpace. Click Three: Keep Passwords Private Kids shouldn't share their passwords with anyone but you. They may think that telling their best friend is OK, but they can never predict what their friend might do with that information if they happened to get in a fight. It's just not worth the risk.
  15. Common Sense Media Click One: Nonprofit Common Sense Media is a great resource that can help you as you navigate the media environment. Common Sense is a national independent, nonprofit organization dedicated to helping parents and educators teach kids how to be safe and smart in today's 24/7 media world.
