Results to the handout survey (grade 4a): a majority of the students spent 0-1 hours online while the other spent 2-3 or more. it was surprising that the expected average time of usage which is 1-2 hours was not marked by anyone. a minority of students had accounts like facebook, bebo, myspace, tagged, and flickr. most students circled other because of their classes joined wiki page and because of a common website called club penguin. about 98% of the class has a msn account and chat online daily. they say they use appropriate language and no one said that they used inappropriate language. that did not seem right since their teacher talked to us about a resent harassment online with some of the girls in his class. every single student in the class admitted to playing a lot of games online and joining websites that are based on games. the surprising thing is that not many of the students have been talked to about internet safety and responsibility by their parents before we talked to them but a minority have been talked to. as i previously stated their teacher told us about an online harassment situation happening with the students and still no one admitted to have ever bullied anyone online or had a fight online. also only three students apparently have received any inappropriate emails from anyone when all the others gave negative results. and none have actually sent inappropriate emails. in the end the survey asked the students to write in a couple of sentences on what they thought internet safety was. here we got the students pointing out the obvious and not what they really learned and everything they said was general when we were hoping for a narrow answer with specific thoughts.
