Social Media And Children
3
Facts on Social Media
4
About 90% of teens have used some form of social media and 75% have a profile on a social networking site, experts say. More than half of all American teens visit social networking sites every day.
5
Benefits Strength of your social media is determined by strength of your content
6
The Good Social media can help kids:
stay connected with friends and family volunteer or get involved with a campaign, nonprofit, or charity enhance their creativity through the sharing of ideas, meet and interact with others who share similar interests
7
Some Positives Increased the rate and quality of collaboration for students. Teaches students skills they’ll need to survive in the business world. By spending so much time working with new technologies, students develop more familiarity with computers and other electronic devices. Building resumes and personal websites, which are increasingly used as online portfolios. The ease and speed with which users can upload pictures, videos or stories has resulted in a greater amount of sharing of creative works.

Social Media: To impress or To Impact??
Issues Social Media: To impress or To Impact??

The Bad One study showed that 9 out of 10 teens post photos of themselves online or use their real names on their profiles; 8 out of 10 reveal their birthdates and interests; and 7 out of 10 post their school name and the town where they live. Actions like this can make kids easy targets for online predators and others who might want to cause them harm. 17% of teens say they've been contacted online by someone they didn't know in a way that made them feel scared or uncomfortable 30% of teens say they've received online advertising that was inappropriate for their age 39% of teens admitted to lying about their age to gain access to websites
10
Some Negatives Many students rely on the accessibility of information on social media specifically and the web in general to provide answers. That means a reduced focus on learning and retaining information. Students who attempt to multi-task, checking social media sites while studying, show reduced academic performance Their ability to concentrate on the task at hand is significantly reduced. The more time students spend on social sites, the less time they spend socializing in person. Students who spend a great deal of time on social networking are less able to effectively communicate in person. Lax attitude towards proper spelling and grammar. The degree to which private information is available online and the anonymity the internet seems to provide has made students forget the need to filter the information they post.

Concerns Being famous on Instagram is basically the same thing as bring rich in Monopoly
12
In addition to problems like cyberbullying and online predators, kids also can face the possibility of a physical encounter with the wrong person. And photos, videos, and comments made online usually can't be taken back once they're posted. Posting an inappropriate photo can damage a kid's reputation in ways that may cause problems years later Spending too much time on social media can be a downer, too.

What Can you do? In a world where everyone is over exposed, the coolest thing you can do is maintain your mystery

17
Be nice. Mean behavior is just as unacceptable in the virtual world as it is in the real world. Make it clear that you expect your kids to treat others with respect and courtesy, and to never post hurtful or embarrassing messages about others. Think twice before hitting "enter." Remind teens that what they post can be used against them. For example, letting the world know that you're off on vacation or posting your home address gives would-be robbers a chance to strike. Teens also should avoid posting specific locations of parties or events, as well as phone numbers.

Teach kids that "once it's out there, you can't get it back
Teach kids that "once it's out there, you can't get it back." They shouldn't share anything on social media that they wouldn't want their teachers, college admissions officers, future bosses. Use privacy settings. Privacy settings are important, and to highlight their importance, go through the settings together to make sure your kids understand each one. Also, explain that passwords are there to protect them against things like identity theft and should never be shared with anyone. Don't "friend" strangers. "If you don't know them, don't friend them." This is a plain, simple — and safe — rule of thumb
19
Institution Policy for social Media
Social Media is new permanent record
20
Some recommendations Every school should have a social media policy outlining how teachers should and shouldn’t interact on social media. Texting with students—about assignment-related issues—is OK if it’s in line with school policy, is within reasonable time bounds (similar to "office hours”). Every school should have a privacy policy addressing being photographed without permission. Stay connected for knowledge and motivation
