Growing Up Online

12 Things That Not Surprised

- I was already aware of the dangers of the Internets
- Knew about the different types of web sites these dangers can happen
- All the variety of activities on the internet
- Things teen do now days in the internet
- I already knew what mainly internet was mainly used by teens back in 2008
- I knew of the diverse and possibility of creating n alternate persona of you, that can be created in in the internet. (No body knows you're a penguin pretending to be a human on the internet)
- I know popular the media can be
- I  know how can an alternate persona in the internet change emotionally a person or his personality.
- I know what the inter-webz is.
- I know YouTube was a growing site and some tens would know about it.
- I know that many teens are attention seekers and post suicide threats online.
- I was aware that there were trolls in the internet what probably encourage people to "Do It".

12 Things That Surprised Me As a Viewer
- That many teenagers like to surf the web to escape reality
-Teens have blogs or are used to technology in their environment.
- YouTube was very big at that moment, even more popular than I though.
- The Internet hosts suicide help sites
- these sites are common and visited in a daily basis
- Sites that encourage and support the practice of anorexia.
- Many people are so indoctrinated by advertisements in real life, they are most obedient to a websites teachings.
- Teens often seek for help or opinion on the internet because there is no real reason why people should lie or be dishonest to a random individual in he internet.
- There are good and bad in the internet, in the scale that many parents are aware and very concerned on how to control their child´s internet habits.
- A little boy had many external relationships in the Internet without his family knowing, may seem creepy for some but I think this kid is a PLAYER!
- People educate themselves on the internet at a small age back then!
- Teenagers had blogs that where commonly visited, now days the only thing you would normally be visited about is your Facebook

I identified the topic of parents trying to impede predators or internet dangers that the parent will want their child to avoid while being online. Because parents still try to do that now days, there are programs on that and every day there are more online predators everyday., which is quite interesting.

The "dead-sites" or image boards that teens would use in Myspace or websites that are uncommonly visited now days. Because I rarely now how these sites work or whom now in modern day visits those sites and why.

No, I think parents should let and trust their child, after all its THEIR child. And if a father/mother is suspicious of inappropriate behavior online or things you as a parent think your child should NOT be exposed in the internet, then they might investigate their history or internet progress. If they notice their child is being a prey online, then a father/mother can take action... In my opinion of course.

Social tool and work tool... VERY important work tool.

GAFE

-How to make a form, what can they be used for, how to embed a form on a blog or website 


Google docs is used for questioners, surveys, applications, and any type of form that you need... for anything! Google Forms replace the habit of delivering or creating forms in paper or tools like Excel, that can be unnecessarily complex to make simple forms. Things it can do its the endless possibility of constructing your activities, submissions and many more forms that suit your need.
