Children are meeting sexual predators on the internet and forming relationships with them and unknowingly allowing them into their lives. Parents must talk to their children about the dangers of the internet. Technology is a great learning tool for them and they will be far more advanced than we were as children, but it also opens the door for unwanted predators who will take advantage of children. With a society more focused on wealth and having a good job and long lasting careers some children are often left in the care of daycare providers. You can often look on the internet and find video after video of the abuse and neglect that goes on in daycares.
But there is always a treat of loosing ones self in these means and going to some unrealistic relationships that can newer be as strong as real ones. This leads us to conclusion that these Network Sites do isolate people from their real lives and make them forget the real values of a friendship. The use of these Sites cannot be good for any normal relationship because there can newer be real emotions in a virtual dialogue like in the real one. Being able to see and learn so much about a person while sitting in the comfort of your own home is unnatural. There is probably over 50 percent of breakups that were caused by Facebook and its content, or even more of them actually happened on these kinds of sites.
One problem the internet caused stated in the documentary is, it is very hard for parents and authorities to regulate what kids do on the computer. Since the internet is so easy to access via new technologies, authoritative figures just cannot be present with the kids all the time. Another issue the internet has caused reported by the documentary is by it being so addictive, it has taken time away from studying, school work and activities such as reading. This is a problem because education is almost a must in today’s society. However, the documentary fails to acknowledge how the internet has helped kids by providing ways to find answers and acquire research and knowledge.
Florence Foster Instructor David English 102 11 January 2011 I have chosen to write about Brent Staples “What Adolescents Miss When We Let Them Grow up in Cyberspace.” Staples argue that “so called online communities isolate adolescents and hinder their social development” (241). Which I believe to be true, but the world as we know it, is becoming very advanced to technology. So that would basically leave adolescents with two decisions, either they have to jump on board with technology, or be left behind. Which would you prefer? Social interactive technologies, such as instant messaging and texting messaging are beginning to redefine the social networks of today’s youth.
Sometimes students blame teachers for their procrastination because they feel the teacher is boring and not teaching right. If students can overcome their boredom in their classes then that would help them with
Unfortunately, the FCAT does not evaluate student’s performance correctly due to students that fall under pressure. The pressure that student’s feel and encounter is also known as test anxiety. According to Channel 7 reporter Erica Rakow’s in the article “FCAT Stresses Students Out, she claims” The responsibility of passing both reading and math portion of the FCAT in 10 grade adds a stressful ambiance to students who really do not want to retake it as a junior (par.2). Rakow also points out “That responsibility includes promotions to the next grade, and future funding for their school. Some students get so worked up about the test they can’t even get through it (par.3).
Ranging from internet addiction, sexual predators, social issues, health problems, and information on subjects that people of certain ages should not find. Sue Scheff is effective in using ethos and pathos in her writing to convince teens and families that although the internet is a great place for learning and social interaction, there are still potential risks and dangers to it and for the younger generations to try to find balance between what’s real and what’s virtual. Scheff’s first issue on internet comes from spending excessive amounts of time surfing the web. If a teen focuses too much time on it, things such as school and social life take the backseat and the Net takes the wheel, resulting in addiction. In the article, “Addiction to Internet ‘Is An Illness’” from The Observer by David Smith, he provides some main internet addiction components, there are four; excessive use, withdrawal that includes feelings of anger, tension and/or depression if the computer is inaccessible.
The student is usually late to school, is friendly but has few friends, and has a hard time sitting still in a chair. Describe at least three at-risk behaviors that you would address as this student's teacher, and explain why each behavior is problematic. Behavior 1. The student is constantly daydreaming. Daydreaming is a problem because the student is not focusing on the teacher and is missing important instruction that will be needed in order to complete assignments.
Life has distinctly undergone some very dramatic changes ever since the dawn of the Internet era and with each passing day there is a growing dependence on it. People start to rely on the accessibility of information on social media, we rely on the internet to give us answers and retain information. Social networking including Facebook, twitter, blogs and even You Tube play a role in our education. Students who attempt to multi-task, checking their social media sites while there are studying or working on a paper lose their ability to perform the task on hand and their concentration by these distractions, I know this to be true because I can admit that I too have looked at Facebook and the internet for distractions while writing this paper. Another problem that social media creates another way for people to bully or have access to emotionally abuse others.
Sickness and school is what has gotten me to my mental state. I suffer from migraines which when I have them effects my concentration and sight (makes things fuzzy etc) so when I have a migraine I can’t go to school because the only way to get rid of it is to rest it off. When my migraines become worse I get more time off school and then I get behind in school work which stresses me out and starts of my anxiety. Even if I didn’t have my migraines I would still be stressed about work but not to the extent I experience when I’ve been
