Ramaswami, Rama – T.H.E. Journal, 2010
Schools fear the predatory behavior that lurks around social networking sites, where the exchange of personal information can make users sitting ducks for hackers, thieves, cyberbullies, and scammers.

Ten years into the new century, people are still trying to find the web 2.0 tools that best facilitate collaboration--one of the fundamentals of 21st century learning.

Villano, Matt – T.H.E. Journal, 2008
With K-12 students seeming to, at all times, have one foot in the real world and one in the virtual, school districts are starting to acknowledge a new collective responsibility: to teach kids what it means to be a good digital citizen and how to go about being one. The movement to address and characterize digital citizenship originated in the UK,…

Technology is allowing anyone with a computer, the ability to type, and an Internet connection to become a published author--of sorts.

The term was coined in 1999, and today Webster's dictionary defines a blog as a "diary; a personal…

A computer virus is a program--a piece of executable code--that has the unique ability to replicate. Like biological viruses, computer viruses can spread quickly and are often difficult to eradicate. They can attach themselves to just about any type of file, and are spread by replicating and being sent from one individual to another. Simply having…

Starkman, Neal – T.H.E. Journal, 2007
Through conversations with students across different grade levels, there is clear evidence that two of the things they most desire contradict each other--and they use electronic technology to get both of them.

Panettieri, Joseph C. – T.H.E. Journal, 2006
The wireless bandwagon is rolling across Mississippi, picking up a fresh load of converts and turning calamity into opportunity.

Vendor funding is helping…
