Internet Safety

I chose to read "Mixed Signals" from the New Era for my fourth article. It was about how to choose good media and technology. I think this is extremely important because we will be using technology. It isn't about whether or not we use it, it's about how we use it. I think that parents need to be aware of what is going on in their children's technological lives and should be just as up-to-date as they are. We cannot just ignore it and have everything be okay. As a parent I need to be aware and teach my own children and students how to avoid problems and how to use technology in an uplifting way. Technology and the internet has so many uses and we need to teach our children all the good ways to use it as well as the ways to avoid the bad. I can help teach my family and friends all these awesome ways we can use technology and also help them to know how to avoid problems.
