Kids Safety on-line for Barcamp UAE
Saturday, May 15, 2010 at 07:07PM As I gradually get enough sleep to be able to ruin my nights again;) I need to update you on developments of last two weeks, while I was traveling. I will start will short presentation I prepared for Barcamp UAE, and partially managed to discuss during a virtual session a week ago in Dubai.
The team of barcamp attendees has gathered to discuss implications of growing interest of kids in new technologies, and thus social media channels as well. We seemed to agree on two points: kids safety on-line is parents and teachers responsibility and should be included in school curriculum but there is also a need for centralized, governmental support too.
Mashable is posting an interesting article about it here, so I hope those of you who so patiently put up with my ...well...poor wifi from the hotel in Santiago de Chile will find it useful to continue discussion. I really hope to see it continuing both on local, as well as global level! Thx for attending and thx to Barcamp UAE organizers for invitation!
