Summertime Safety Online: Issue 10 of bNetS@vvy
We are pleased to alert you to the latest version of bNetS@vvy, a resource developed by the NEA Health Information Network, focused on kids and technology.
This issue tackles summertime safety online from a variety of viewpoints. In From the Experts, Internet safety expert Nancy Willard offers specific risk prevention tips for parents of children and teens (and see Willard's downloadable cyber-safety handout, available at bNetS@vvy's Tips and Tools section). In Parents' Corner, teacher and mother Vicki Davis details four guidelines for building "a family summertime safety line." Our Teacher's Desk piece features Paula White, a tech-savvy elementary school teacher who urges parents and teachers to spend the summer learning more about the benefits of social technology. And in our Youth Voices segment, we hear from two typical kids, one age 11 and one age 15, about how they use social technology in their daily lives.
