    • Digital Confusion





      Over the past few weeks, I’ve noticed a few themes that have caught my attention. Now, a few of them are very positive, like the Future of Education that is being hosted by George Siemens over at University of Manitoba. Another is planning, especially for the summer months as many teachers prepare for some time off and away from the school. Now, I would have thought that many more positive ventures regarding education and technological tools would be blossoming forth given the onset of the summer. Instead, we still seem to be up against a social resistance to using technology in schools because of what might happen. More recently is the suggestion that the internet is “dumbing down” society and we’re now set to live in mediocrity, this according to Andrew Keen.

    • Discuss safety with children







      By Devin Felix
      Deseret Morning News




            Utah Attorney General Mark Shurtleff announced Friday the launch of Take 25, a national program that encourages parents to take 25 minutes to discuss safety precautions with their children.

            Shurtleff, along with representatives of the Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force and the Boys and Girls Clubs of America, met with a group of sixth-grade students at Viewmont Elementary School in Murray to discuss the program and commemorate the 25th anniversary of National Missing Children's Day.

            They emphasized the dangers children could face if they give out information about themselves online and encouraged students to tell a trusted adult about potentially dangerous situations.

      Basics


      WiFi is short for Wireless Fidelity and is a particular type of wireless local area network (WLAN) – i.e., you don't need to plug your computer into a phone network via a cable. There are many types of WLAN but all of them allow two or more computers to form a network using radio frequency (RF) signals. They allow users to access and share data, applications, internet access or other network resources in the same way as wired (cable) systems. For more information, see

        Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) are becoming a popular way of networking computer equipment in the home and office. The different items of equipment communicate with each other using radio signals. More information on using WLANs can be found on the British Educational Communications and Technology Agency (BECTA) website at



        People using WLAN equipment will be exposed to the radio signals that are emitted; information about such exposures is provided here.
