Teaching how to share pictures responsibly

Here´s a very good visual resource that can help educate adults and children about the importance of "keeping it private"

What´s the issue here?

Technology is a paralel world in which we live. Adults and children, happy and sad people, moms and dads, singles, adventurers, actors, teachers, big and small business, astronauts. We are all there.

Our world has rules. In one hand, we have developed laws that vary depending on where you physically live, study and work.

The internet has no rules. Its very own nature radicates on freedom. Is this necessary? Should we restrain parts of the internet for the sake of safety?

I think that the answer is quite simple: NO.



First, because we can´t. The internet is so flexible, so thin and so expandable that it is impossible to regulate it. Even the most encrypted systems can be hacked, even the internet can have a paralel dimension.
Second, because we should not. It is different controlling from restraining, educating than prohibiting.

The problem with this issue is that, as educators, we face a very important and complicated wave: the new generation of technology kids. They learn different, feel different, their brains are even different 

They will share their pictures. We will probably share their pictures.

The issues here are the following:

How do we explain to them the need to be safe?
How do we educate them in selecting safe sites?
When could we post their pictures? Where? Under what circumstances?
