INTRODUCTION: THE PERFECT STORM
internetsafety101.org/internetsafety101
One of the most significant challenges we face is that an entire generation of children is navigating life in an online world with which we—as parents and caregivers—have had very little experience. Over the past several years, a number of dynamic, powerful and destructive dangers have some together to create a perfect storm scenario for our children to fall victim to online exploitation. Hear how EIE became involved in this mission and how this teaching series will help educate, equip and empower you—as a parent, educator or other caring adult—to prevent online dangers from impacting your child, thereby protecting their age of innocence.
SEGMENT 1: PORNOGRAPHY 101
Girls Testimony One of the biggest threats to our children's safety online is pornography, which has become increasingly acceptable and accessible. Today, any computer-literate child can view anything, from adult pornography to graphic videos, online chats, live nude peep shows, virtual sex parties, user-generated porn, and pornography that is illegal and prosecutable, free of charge. Hear about kids' exposure to pornography in there own words; listen to the nation's top clinicians, psychologists, and researchers as they discuss the implications of pornography exposure, the warning signs and how you can talk to your children about healthy sexuality.
SEGMENT 2: PREDATORS 101
Predators have easy and anonymous access to children online where they can conceal their identity and roam without limit. Often we have an image of sexual predators lurking around school playgrounds or hiding behind bushes scoping out their potential victims, but the reality is that today’s predators search for victims while hiding behind a computer screen, taking advantage of the anonymity the Internet offers. Hear Alicia's story of how she fell victim to the grooming techniques of an online predator. Listen to additional interviews with "John Doe", a sexual predator, law enforcement and Internet experts as they share what you need to know to protect and prevent your child from becoming a victim to an online predator.
SEGMENT 3: WEB 2.0
The Internet continues to become more mobile, multi-directional, and multi-media in format. This evolving Web, referred to as "Web 2.0", is user-driven; anybody can be a publisher, videographer, or instant celebrity. Communication is instant and can be one-on-one, one-to-many, many-to-many; peer-to-peer, or even viral. Learn how kids are using the web today; learn about social networking, gaming, mobile devices and emerging threats like cyberbullying, and how to apply the basics of Internet safety in this emerging and converging digital world.
