Good Advice for Teens Using Social Media
Are you concerned about how teenagers are using social media and what they are sharing publicly? As a parent of teenagers and a person in my school with influence on them I want to promote sensible use of all these new tools and environments.
I came across this letter to teenagers over the weekend and thought it was a sound and non-threatening way to get the message across. I have just blown up to A3 size and made a display promoting it. I will also ask teachers to post a copy in classroom, especially the computer room.
Have a look at the link below and feel free to share with everyone!
The Internet never forgets. Is that what you want for your future you?

ReplyDeleteThis is most timely. I have posted it on the Library noticeboard
Hey Lisa, we must follow the same educationalists on Twitter! I've put it on my blog but I love the idea of printing it out for the library. Thanks.
