Filtering
FILTERING
Required by CIPA but…
Washington Post column by Justin Reich points out that web filters in schools do a great job limiting what teachers can search while not doing much to protect kids. Reich calls filters “knee-high fences around the Internet” that “may trip up older folks, but teens leap right over.”

ALA quotes the National Research Council whose report insightfully points out:
“Swimming pools can be dangerous for children. To protect them, one can install locks, put up fences, and deploy pool alarms. All these measures are helpful, but by far the most important thing that one can do for one’s children is to teach them to swim.”

The false security that has been generated through reliance on these tools has undermined the establishment of effective education and supervision practices, at school or at home.

should attempt to use social networking as part of the educational process. Whether they know it or not, kids are engaged in informal learning through their use of social networking so why not use the same technology for formal learning? And while you’re at it, incorporate digital citizenship and media literacy into your teaching.
