Activity 1

You probably ignore the news when it comes on television but this sometimes the news can be very educational and interesting. It turns out, the video below introduces a reporter who had to learn about COPPA and then explain it to an audience who probably knows little or nothing about it. Watch the video below. As you watch, think about how the reporter goes about explaining COPPA. What methods does she use to help her audience understand what she is talking about. In the end, you will have to judge whether she succeeded or failed based on how much you learned.

Open a Text Entry and write 2-3 sentences about what you learned from the video. You should try to watch the video only once since that's usually how many times people get to see a news story unless they go online and watch the video on the Internet.

3. Do you think there are ways that digital media can make relationships stronger? Are there ways that digital media can ruin relationships?

4. Why do you think the girl in the video said that she didn’t want people to “know who she was”? How do you feel about people knowing your identity online?

5. Some people say that kids know more about digital media in their lives than adults, such as parents and teachers, do. What do you think?

6. What did the girl in the video mean when she says, “It’s easier to experiment online”?

7. Students talked about “commenting on other people.” What did they mean by this?

8. What are the potential good things about that? What are some negatives?

9. One girl in the video said that she got a lot out of other people commenting on her work. Have you ever gotten feedback for something you did online? Was it a good experience? Why or why not?

10. What are some of the things the kids in the video said about respecting creative work?

11. What do you have to be careful about online?

12. What does it mean to be a “good digital citizen”? What are some examples of good digital citizenship?
