Artificial intelligence (AI) in education is growing fast and will change teachers’ roles without replacing them. It allows personalized learning, automates grading and admin tasks, and provides tutoring support outside the classroom. AI also promotes inclusion by breaking language and disability barriers, giving teachers more time to focus on guiding and supporting students.

Books will soon be obsolete in schools, opined Thomas Edison in 1913. He believed the motion picture would replace texts and teachers as means of instruction, and that it would happen within a decade. A century later, Mr Edison is unwilling to admit error, no matter how hard your correspondent probes. He insists his prediction was “not entirely incorrect”, and that he got it both right and wrong.

This study examines high school students’ responses to a public policy discussion on the topic of Internet privacy. Specifically, students discussed the question of whether search engines and social media sites should be permitted to monitor, track, and share users’ personal data or whether such practices violate personal privacy. We observed discussions of the topic in four high school classrooms in 2015–2016, prior to the presidential election in 2016. We first explain why the topic failed to work as a controversial public issue with high schoolers. We then explain their responses to the issue. We found (1) students displayed a surprising trust in Facebook and Google; (2) students framed the issue of Internet Privacy as a conflict in values and a set of trade-offs; and (3) students tended to put more weight on personal responsibility than implications for democracy in their assessment of the (acknowledged) erosion of privacy as a result of social media and Internet search engines. We conclude with implications for social studies education and teacher education.

Internet use continues to grow, but universality remains elusive, especially in low-income regions

In 2024 fully 5.5 billion people are online. That represents 68 per cent of the world population, compared with 65 per cent just one year earlier.[1] The year-on-year growth rate is itself increasing, from 2.7 just one year ago to 3.4 per cent this year. But the same figure tells us that 2.6 billion people, one-third of the global population, are still offline. Universal connectivity remains a distant prospect.

Internet use remains tightly linked to the level of development. In high-income countries[2] 93 per cent of the population uses the Internet, approaching universality.[3] This contrasts starkly with the situation in low-income countries, where only 27 per cent of the population is online. While the annual growth rate in these economies averages 8.5 per cent in 2024, higher than in any of the other groups or regions, this is not sufficient to close the gap anytime soon.

In Europe, the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), and the Americas, between 87 and 92 per cent of the population use the Internet. In the Arab States and Asia-Pacific countries, approximately two-thirds of the population (70 and 66 per cent, respectively) do so, in line with the global average. By contrast, the average figure for Africa is just 38 per cent.

Universal connectivity also remains a distant prospect in the least developed countries (LDCs) and landlocked developing countries (LLDCs), where only 35 and 39 per cent of the population are online, respectively.

Ways to proctect the data and privacy online:

Online Safety (For teens):

Besides the millions of sites to visit and things to do, going online offers lots of ways to waste time — and even get into trouble. But some people you meet online might try to take advantage of you, steal your personal information, or harass or threaten you (called cyberbullying).

You might know people who got into trouble for something they did online — whether it was sexting, bullying on a website or message app, or getting ripped off by someone they met online.

Because users can remain anonymous, popular websites and messaging apps might attract adults who pretend to be teens or kids. They'll sometimes ask visitors for pictures or information about themselves, their families, or where they live — information that shouldn't be given away.

Usually, people who ask for personal information like home addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses use this information to fill mailboxes and answering machines with ads. In some cases, though, predators use it to begin illegal or indecent relationships or to harm a person or family.

Internet usage in Argentina has grown exponentially since 2000, reaching over 90% of the population by 2025. This dramatic increase reflects the global trend of digital adoption and places Argentina among the most connected nations in Latin America.

Key Milestones in Internet Penetration in Argentina

Early 2000s: At the beginning of the 21st century, internet usage in Argentina was still low, with a penetration rate of around 7% in 2000. Access was primarily through dial-up connections, and it was a luxury for many.with the penetration rate reaching 90.1% by the start of 2025.
