1. What's your opinion of the impact of the Internet on kids?
I think that the impact of the internet on children has pros and cons. I think that it is great because students today have an endless supply of information just at their fingertips. At the same time though, I think that it is potentially dangerous to the students because of predators and students alternate personas established in the internet world. I think that if children and adolescents use the internet it should be closely monitored and stressed that the internet is not a toy and that nothing does get “deleted.”
2. As a future teacher, do you worry about it?
Yes I do. Ideally, I do not want my future students in any sort of trouble. Ideally, I would love to let my future students live in a world where there was no internet and they could just innocently play outside and not worry about blackberry’s or what someone’s status.
Do you have a personal Internet-related story to share?
Nope. My parents always monitored my computer usage and I have always been a slow learner with new technologies.
