Description: “The world is wired.” Simple, true, and-like so much in life that is simple and true-full of complexity. With a light touch firmly grounded in reality, this book takes on two important issues of Information Age ethics and safety: the lack of tangible feedback and the perception of invisibility. The author integrates basic behavioral theory with the social forces that information and communication technologies stimulate. She then details eight decision-making strategies to encourage ethical, safe, and courteous conduct among young adults using these technologies. Each of the curriculum’s 14 short units includes two to four unique classroom activities-34 in all – that provide teachers with tools to guide their students to use technology ethically, safely, and appropriately. It’s a whole new (wired) world, and this text offers simple guidelines for empowering students to embrace its challenges and opportunities with honor and respect.
