Discussion notes, key understandings, outstanding questions, observations, and, if appropriate to this discussion: action items, next steps:
After introducing the Internet usage by K-12 in Japan, we discussed followings;
1) How do they manage digital identities?
2) How do they learn about identity and privacy?
3) What can we do for them?
Comments;
- Do teens feel themselves safe or are they safe really?
- What “risky” means varies by generation. Resilience is important.
- We can’t solve the problem at the level that created the problem.
- It is necessary to educate not only students but also teachers and parents. Kids are often more aware of online risk than teachers.
- Real-name policy in US must be considered.
