As I venture into educating my students to explore the world of art as a form of integrated technology .

As educators, especially those who know the functions of a digital world, it is our imperative to reinforce the pro's and con's of sharing information. I think the most effective way for students to understand is for them to process these "blind spots" themselves.

I would hope to set a norm with the class, discuss issues of respect.

introducing students to the abilities of understanding the issues of privacy online, understanding the issues of critically engaging with each other and with the information they encounter. I would need to read the book to understand the moral and ethical issues that would need to be addressed, I guess

Never post anything you don't want splashed on the cover of USA Today.

Start by explaining to them that their online participation is private or not private and explain who is able to see. Let them know I want place anything online without their approval. In situations where there is not much privacy educate them on potential consequences of their words.

If the technology allows, I would create a classroom based off of trust and open communication. That being said, I would make it known that it’s okay to be critical of other peoples’ works but its all in the way that it is done.

I would not be able to use Wikipedia. However, does that technically constitute "self-plagarism?"

information on the internet--needs to be dissected and discerned critically.

I think most people care More for themselves than consideration of others...posting things online defy privacy, simply because of the standards of the web defy privacy

My friends and I seem to take pictures with the expectation that they will end up on Facebook, but I would never do that with someone else's kid.

There should be legal consequences if someone posts pictures of others that are inappropriate, here I'm assuming naked/pornographic.

I check privacy setting obsessively. I don't trust a lot of social media. And even then, I'm sure there's quite a bit I still don't understand.

YES. I don't interact with apps very often because I don't like sharing the information that apps typically ask for.

# data[].attributes.body
Any time I have set up a social account I never have used my real name and have always opted out of all sharing, but that is because of my personal views of social media...

I think a lot about younger parents who post several pictures of their children on facebook. I would hate it if hundreds of baby pics of me (or me as a teen with zits and braces) were online. I'd be mortified!!!!

# data[].attributes.body
I hate when my mother in law posts pictures of my kids on Facebook, but more because I feel like it invades my privacy just as much as it does my kids privacy, and I think she is taking liberties that aren't necessarily hers to take.

# data[].attributes.body
I usually only post pictures of friends and family on Instagram. I do not ask them. I do not tag people.

# data[].attributes.body
I assume that postings are permissible; I keep a closed network online and don't tag people. I have often times shared pictures to social media of students for the intent of sharing images with parents and community.

If you post a section to Wikipedia, do you feel that you are allowed to use that section in any of your future writing for an assignment? Why or why not?

65% of adults now use social networking sites - a nearly tenfold jump in the past decade

Nearly two-thirds of American adults (65%) use social networking sites, up from 7% when Pew Research Center began systematically tracking social media usage in 2005. Pew Research reports have documented in great detail how the rise of social media has affected such things as work, politics and political deliberation, communications patterns around the globe, as well as the way people get and share information about health, civic life, news consumption, communities, teenage life, parenting, dating and even people's level of stress.

Social Networking Use Has Shot Up in Past Decade

Pew Research Center

A special analysis of 27 national surveys of Americans across the past decade documents this substantial spread of technology throughout the population, although the overall number of users of social networking sites has leveled off since 2013. At the same time, there continues to be growth in social media usage among some groups that were not among the earliest adopters, including older Americans.

The figures reported here are for social media usage among all adults, not just among those Americans who are internet users. In many previous Pew Research reports, the share of social media users has been reported as the proportion of internet users who had adopted such sites, rather than the full adult population, which continues to include a relatively small share (currently 15%) who still remain offline. In this report, a broader picture of the American landscape is presented, and so the figures are based on the entire adult population.

Across demographic groups, a number of trends emerge in this analysis of social media usage:

Age differences: Seniors make strides - Young adults (ages 18 to 29) are the most likely to use social media - fully 90% do. Still, usage among those 65 and older has more than tripled since 2010 when 11% used social media. Today, 35% of all those 65 and older report using social media, compared with just 2% in 2005.

Gender differences: Women and men use social media at similar rates - Women were more likely than men to use social networking sites for a number of years, although since 2014 these differences have been modest. Today, 68% of all women use social media, compared with 62% of all men.

Socio-economic differences: Those with higher education levels and household income lead the way - Over the past decade, it has consistently been the case that those in higher-income households were more likely to use social media. More than half (56%) of those living in the lowest-income households now use social media, though growth has leveled off in the past few years. Turning to educational attainment, a similar pattern is observed. Those with at least some college experience have been consistently more likely than those with a high school degree or less to use social media over the past decade. 2013 was the first year that more than half of those with a high school diploma or less used social media.

Racial and ethnic similarities: There are not notable differences by racial or ethnic group: 65% of whites, 65% of Hispanics and 56% of African-Americans use social media today.

Community differences: More than half of rural residents now use social media - Those who live in rural areas are less likely than those in suburban and urban communities to use social media, a pattern consistent over the past decade. Today, 58% of rural residents, 68% of suburban residents, and 64% of urban residents use social media.

What follows is an overview of changes over time in social media by various demographic groups. A full archive of Pew Research Center reports on different social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and LinkedIn as well as about social media usage on mobile devices in general can be found at: http://www.pewinternet.org/topics/social-networking/.

Social Media Usage by Age: Ubiquitous Among Youngest Adults, Notable Among Older Adults

Age is strongly correlated with social media usage: Those ages 18 to 29 have always been the most likely users of social media by a considerable margin. Today, 90% of young adults use social media, compared with 12% in 2005, a 78-percentage point increase. At the same time, there has been a 69-point bump among those ages 30-49, from 8% in 2005 to 77% today.

Young Adults Still Are the Most Likely to Use Social Media

Pew Research Center

While usage among young adults started to leveled off as early as 2010, since then there has been a surge in usership among those 65 and older. In 2005, 2% of seniors used social media, compared with 35% today.

Social Media Usage by Gender: A Shifting Balance Over Time, With Parity Today

In 2005, 8% of men and 6% of women used social media.

Starting in 2009, women started using social media at slightly higher rates than men, although this balance has shrunk yet again in recent years. Today, 68% of women and 62% of men report social media usage, a difference that is not statistically significant.

Social Media Usage by Educational Attainment: Those With Higher Education Levels More Likely to be Social Media Users

Those who have attended at least some college are more likely than those with a high school diploma or less to use social media, a trend that has been consistent since 2005. In that year, 4% of those with a high school diploma or less used social media, along with 8% of those who attended some college and 12% of college graduates.

Those With Lower Levels of Education Are Less Likely to Use Social Media

Year

College graduate or more

Some college / Associate degree

High school graduate or less

Pew Research Center

Currently adoption rates for social media stand at 76% for those with college or graduate degrees, 70% of those with some college education and 54% for those who have a high school diploma or less.

At the same time, the share of those with a high school diploma or less who use social media has grown more than tenfold over the past decade.

Social Media Usage by Household Income: Those Living in Affluent Households More Likely to Be Social Media Users

There were modest differences by household income when Pew Research first began measuring social media usage in 2005: 4% of those living in households earning less than $30,000 used social media, compared with 12% of those living in household earning $75,000 or more.

Those in Higher Income Households Lead the Way

Source: Pew Research Center surveys, 2005-2006, 2008-2015. No data are available for 2007.

Pew Research Center

Those differences have persisted even as each group has seen dramatic growth in usage.

Today, 78% of those living in the highest-income households use social media, compared with 56% of those in the lowest-income households - a 22-point difference.

Social Media Usage by Race/Ethnicity: Consistent Similarities

When it comes to race and ethnicity, trends in social media adoption are defined by similarities, not differences. Whites, African-Americans and Hispanics have broadly adopted social media at the same brisk pace.

Racial Differences Not Very Evident as Social Media Usage Has Grown

Source: Pew Research Center surveys, 2005-2006, 2008-2015. No data are available for 2007.

Pew Research Center

In 2005, 6% of African-Americans, 7% of whites and 10% of Hispanics used social networking sites. Today, those figures stand at 56% of African-Americans and 65% of both whites and Hispanics.

Social Media Usage by Community Type: More Than Half of Rural Residents Now Use Social Media

Adults who live in rural communities have historically been the least likely to use social media. In 2005, 5% of rural residents, 7% of suburban residents and 9% of urban residents reported social media usage. Today, 58% of rural residents, 68% of suburban residents and 64% of urban residents use social media.

Rural Citizens Have Consistently Lagged Behind

What is your belief about information on the Internet? Do you feel that once someone has posted something online that it is "up for grabs" no matter the outcome or how they tried to keep it private? Do you feel that we are all entitled so some level of privacy and if that privacy is mishandled is that information now "fair game" to all who can view it?
