An example in the media of how technology is powerful and has a great influence on the public is Balenciaga's most recent campaign which depicted ideas of child slavery, blew up on social media and decreased their sales right away. #lesson5
I have witnessed students showing teachers how to properly use technology in the classroom. This goes to show how fast technology evolves and how the older generation has a hard time keeping up! #lesson7
There are way too many social media applications that should require a higher age limit. Did you know that TikTok for example has an age limit of only 13 years old?? #lesson7
There are more and more social media platforms available to the public that are invasive, but people will still give into downloading them. A perfect example of this is BeReal. #lesson9
Monitoring children while using the internet is so controversial and to be honest, I don't understand why. Children are susceptible to watching or reading things on the internet that are not appropriate for their age. I believe it is crucial to watch their internet time. #lesson9
People get so defensive when they hear the topic of feminism being discussed, but what they neglect to understand is no one is trying to say that women are superior to men, they are just simply asking for equality. #lesson10
The biggest downfall of conversing with someone over the internet is the complete lack of being able to read their non-verbals. This is so important in understanding the person's message. #lesson5
In my opinion the most useful social media tool for the classroom would be Twitter or Discord. Students can easily connect with other students and ask questions and be part of different conversations. #lesson2
Having the "freedom" to post what we want online is nothing but an illusion. Everything we do is monitored and controlled whether we are aware of it or not. #lesson5
I just think it is almost evil for Disney to have made such prejudice movies targeting children with vulnerable brains. This is because they know their target audience is not old enough to understand how wrong this is. #lesson11
@candelaciocann I agree with this, but thankfully Disney is coming out with more inclusive movies which explore different cultures such as "Luca (2021)", "Coco (2017)" and Soul (2020)". #Lesson11
@ElenaS_Educ307 Yes! A perfect example of Disney releasing inclusive movies is a recent movie "Luca (2021)" which features culturally diverse characters. At least it is visible that Disney is actively trying to change the idea that they are close minded. #Lesson11
The #LetHerBe campaign from #Lesson11 has such a powerful message to the younger generation. All women and people are beautiful in different ways. This campaign has an empowering message, this video is worth the watch!
