How about clickbait, deep fakes, fake news or the like? There's a lot of information out there and it's here to stay. We can't stick our heads in the sand and simply say, “I wish all of this technology didn't exist” or “I remember when I was young and didn't have to contend with that- can't we just go back?” This is when and where our children live. The cyber world is just “their world.” We need to know how to navigate it and help our children navigate it with confidence, responsibility and knowledge. They need to learn how to become tech savvy and cyberwise. For this discussion, we are going to talk to our friend, Diana Graber, for a second time. There's been a lot since last we talked! Diana is the author of "Raising Humans in a Digital World: Helping Kids Build a Healthy Relationship with Technology"(HarperCollins Leadership '19), co-founder of CyberWise (aka, No Grownup Left Behind!) and founder of Cyber Civics, the popular middle school digital literacy curriculum.

Special guest: Diana Graber. Snapchat, Instagram, Fortnite, cyberbullying, sexting, and technology addiction are some of the digital concerns that keep today's parents up at night. Some of the statistics being quoted are scary: Common Sense Media reported that 50 percent of teens feel “addicted” to their phones. The Pew Research Center reported just last year that 59 percent of U.S teens have been bullied or harassed online. Guard Child reported that 39 percent of teens have sent or posted sexually suggestive messages (sexting). Stanford University researchers tell us that a whopping 80 percent of students can't differentiate between real and “fake” news. And the World Health Organization told us in 2017 that Technology is making children dangerously unhealthy. YIKES. These are not small-scale studies with questionable results. My next guest has been unpacking this research and working to understand how digital innovations have radically altered childhood and left us largely unprepared as parents for how to deal with the influx of technology and the fallout from these devices. She is also capturing the upside of these digital innovations that, yes, if used correctly, can enrich our children's lives—and regardless, this IS the world we live in- we can not shut our eyes turn off all screens and say “that's it!” without shutting out the digital world in which we must learn to survive and thrive. So what can we do? Diana Graber, a digital literacy educator and advocate, was honored with the National Association for Media Literacy Education's 2017 Media Literacy Teacher Award. She is the cofounder of Cyberwise, a leading online safety and digital literacy organization, and the founder and creator of Cyber Civics, the popular and innovative middle school digital citizenship and literacy program currently being taught in more than 40 US states, the UK, Canada, New Zealand and Africa. Graber lives with her family in Southern California. Diana is also the author of Raising Humans in a Digital World, published in January of this year.

Reading, writing, arithmetic, and...how to mute yourself on a Zoom call? The remote and hybrid classroom settings of this school year has made tech-savviness and digital responsibility (and patience!) key skills for students and their grown ups. Parents especially have had to expand their own technical expertise, taking on the additional roles of teacher, student, and on-demand IT professional in their households. Our Raising Curious Learners hosts Ann and Elizabeth virtually tapped CyberWise founder Diana Graber to help address the concerns parents may be dealing with during the pandemic and explain how we can all be smart, productive, ethical, and empowered digital citizens in this ever-evolving space. They also discuss her vision for the post-COVID world in which technology usage can be shaped by curiosity and creativity, rather than just necessity.

Special guest: Diana Graber. Snapchat, Instagram, Fortnite, cyberbullying, sexting, and technology addiction are some of the digital concerns that keep today's parents up at night. Some of the statistics being quoted are scary: Common Sense Media reported that 50 percent of teens feel “addicted” to their phones. The Pew Research Center reported just last year that 59 percent of U.S teens have been bullied or harassed online. Guard Child reported that 39 percent of teens have sent or posted sexually suggestive messages (sexting). Stanford University researchers tell us that a whopping 80 percent of students can't differentiate between real and “fake” news. And the World Health Organization told us in 2017 that Technology is making children dangerously unhealthy. YIKES. These are not small-scale studies with questionable results. My next guest has been unpacking this research and working to understand how digital innovations have radically altered childhood and left us largely unprepared as parents for how to deal with the influx of technology and the fallout from these devices. She is also capturing the upside of these digital innovations that, yes, if used correctly, can enrich our children's lives—and regardless, this IS the world we live in- we can not shut our eyes turn off all screens and say “that's it!” without shutting out the digital world in which we must learn to survive and thrive. So what can we do? Diana Graber, a digital literacy educator and advocate, was honored with the National Association for Media Literacy Education's 2017 Media Literacy Teacher Award. She is the cofounder of Cyberwise, a leading online safety and digital literacy organization, and the founder and creator of Cyber Civics, the popular and innovative middle school digital citizenship and literacy program currently being taught in more than 40 US states, the UK, Canada, New Zealand and Africa.

Social media and engaging online are part of being a kid today, but just one post, tweet or text can get a student suspended or expelled, ruin friendships, impact future job opportunities, or influence college admissions. Right or wrong, a single, split-second digital decision can damage a teen’s reputation and permanently impact a child’s digital footprint. This is a lot of pressure for an adolescent, who is just trying to navigate the high school years and all that goes with it. As parents, we need to help our kids understand that their digital reputation is important and that what they do online matters. On this episode Marc and David explore the complex issues around online reputation with Diana Graber, Cofounder of Cyberwise, a leading online safety and digital literacy organization, and author of Raising Humans in a Digital World. Produced by The Podglomerate.

Hello everyone, and welcome to the Student-Tutor Podcast!   Does the thought of your child browsing the internet sometimes make you uncomfortable? What happens if they connect with someone dangerous... or worse... what if their activity DESTROYS their REAL-LIFE reputation??   This week we're joined by Diana Graber, the founder of CyberWise.org and CyberCivics.com. These organizations are dedicated to helping adults and students learn digital citizenship and literacy skills.   As long-time media producer sporting an M.A. in “Media Psychology & Social Change,” Graber is a regular contributor to the HuffPost and top news sources.   In addition to serving as an Adjunct Professor of Media Psychology at the graduate level, she teaches Cyber Civics classes to middle schoole students at Journey School in Southern California.   Graber was recently honored with the “2017 Media Literacy Teacher” award from the National Association of Media Literacy Education (NAMLE), and as a result of her work, Cyber Civics is currently being taught in public and private Waldorf school across the US, Canada, and the U.K!     Time Stamped Show Notes:   [1:30] - Todd intro [2:00] - This week's guest, Diana Graber [3:30] - Diana explains digital literacy [8:00] - The new tools of the digital age [12:30] - How Diana made her transition into the digital age [15:00] - Materials covered in Diana's 3-year digital literacy course [19:00] - Advantages of being online [21:15] - Resources Diana recommends for students [22:15] - Diana's epifiany / the results of Cyber Civics [27:45] - How to get in-touch with Diana [28:00] - Diana's greatest piece of actionable advise [30:30] - Outro   3 Key Points:   1. Digital literacy can save you from misinformation and preserve your reputation! Many forms of content online are NOT regulated, therefore it's CRITICAL to check sources and fact-check information. In addition, the things you post can affect your chances at college and certain careers... so share WISELY! 2. Digital age tools can be used for good... or evil! Understand that everything you share online is received by REAL PEOPLE. Sharing useful content and becoming a PRODUCER instead of just a CONSUMER can provide real value to the world and set you apart in job and college interviews!   3. Critical thinking skills are the key! Developing the skills that will allow you to validate content legitimacy and prepare a strategy for creating and sharing content offers long-term benefits across your ENTIRE life! As she mentioned in the episode, implementing the digital literacy classes ended up INCREASING standardized test scores SCHOOL WIDE!

Diane Graber of Cyberwise: No Grownup Left Behind There's some fear of the unknown for parents, because their kids are growing up in a world so different from the one they grew up in. Although that was true for an earlier generation or more, dangers seem to have multiplied. Principles of human behavior, though, Diane emphasizes, haven't changed although the tools available have. Focus on the behaviors, and you won't have to keep up with every new tool. Consideration for others, ethical behavior, good manners, need to be modeled by parents even while children are too young to use the tools the parents are using, because little ones are taking it all in. Research shows adults are prone to share personal information online than kids are! Three things our guest recommends 1. Remember it's not about the tools, it's about using them wisely. 2. Be curious about the world kids are living in, especially when they first start using social media, before the door closes in teen years when they are not so eager to have you enter their world. 3. Try the apps out yourself to see what the buzz all about. Your kids can help you learn how. In teaching the Cyber Civics™ Privacy unit Ms. Graber has her 7th graders read the Privacy Policy of a tool they are interested in using, providing help with the legal terms. In small group discussion the kids go over the policy and voice their reactions to it. “I can't believe that! That's not right!” is a common reaction. Some decide they can live without an app that makes unfair demands. The 3-year middle school Cyber Civics™ curriculum includes in year one, Digital Citizenship, in year two, Information Literacy (how to retrieve, analyze, and use information), and in year three, Media Literacy (how to analyze media messages). If you'd like to introduce your child's middle school to the program, contact Diane at cyberwise.org or go to cybercivics.com for a leaflet or free downloads of the actual lessons for one-hour per week of the school year. Her school found that the students' school scores have risen because so many subject areas are touched upon in the classes and critical thinking skills are being taught. Success depends upon the three communities (teachers, children, and parents) working together, so workshops for teachers and presentations to parents are available. Front-running apps at present include Instagram and Snapchat. It is important to remind kids that there are a number of ways that Snapchat's “disappearing” shots can be recorded by others, contrary to the belief that they cannot form part of their digital footprint that stays online. On the plus side, kids can save their ‘snaps' throughout the day and combine them to form Snapchat stories to tell others about their day. News bits from CNN and National Geographic are distributed to Snapchat users, increasing its value. It is very important for parents to support and abide by the age requirements of various tools. If you must be 13 to sign up, stick with that and do not let peer pressure or kid pressure coerce you into allowing your children to use the app if they are underage. They will not be protected by the Children's Online Protection Act (COPA) if they have lied about their age. Furthermore, developmentally children do not typically have the cognitive ability to think ethically before the age of 13. Diana Graber has long been a producer and marketer of media — including film, video, television, print, and live sports events. Together with her husband, she co-owns Graber Productions, an Emmy-award winning (8 times!) film and video production company.  In addition to producing the content for CyberWise, No Grownup Left Behind!, Diana is recognized as an expert in “digital literacy.” As Adjunct Faculty of the Media Psychology M.A. program at the Massachusetts School of Professional Psychology (MSPP), she taught “Media Psychology for the 21st Century.” She also developed and teaches a middle-school media literacy program call...

Is the younger generation running digital circles around you? Thanks to our expert guests our listeners are familiar with many guidelines for parents, educators, and adults in general, who are confronting the challenges of the digital age. This episode goes one step farther, because Diana Graber of Cyberwise.org has provided mini courses designed to teach you what research has shown to be the six most important Digital Life Skills. Ms. Graber earned an M.A. in Media Psychology and Social Change, making her an ideal guest for The Social Network Show. She and Dr. J discuss the importance of getting research findings into the hands of the public. When researchers write primarily for other researchers, too often even the most useful information can become cloaked in jargon with which the general reader is unfamiliar. Diana has translated and organized valuable information in bite-sized chunks as certificate modules available at the very affordable price of $8.99. (cyberwisecert.com) In fact, your first course is completely free. Schools can subscribe to Cyber Civics™ [http://www.cyberwise.org/#!get-the-cyber-civics-program/c10pf ], years 1 and 2, to provide curriculum in digital literacy training to middle school educators. Asking children to show you how to use the social apps they are fans of is a great way not only to learn the ropes, but also to establish the custom of being where your kids are, before they reach the teen years when they are may not be so eager to communicate. Diana observes that the frontal lobe, source of judgment, may not completely develop until the age of 25! She notes other developmental milestones that will help you appreciate the opportunity, as well as the challenge, information technology presents. Diana emphasizes that behavior is far more important that the particular digital tool-du-jour. Although new tools appear almost daily, behavioral principles are evergreen, carrying over from one app to the next!
