1. What are the most important things you learned? The most important things I learned are first of all that once information has been given on the internet, it is like feathers in the breeze you can never get back. Gossip and information spread like wild fire on the internet. I learned that someone can stalk you with as little information as your name, your birthday, and your five digit zip code. The most important thing we can do is be careful of the private information we provide on the internet.
2. How might you use the resources I you discovered in your future classroom or home? There were some pretty cool sites I found just for kids and I want to show these internet safety videos to my children at a young age and to my students at the beginning of the school year. If kids are informed it will prevent certain dangers found on the internet.
