1. The article that I chose to read was Elder David A. Bednar's Things as They Really Are.
2. For the video resources I mostly just looked at websites that were kid oriented.
3. Reading-My favorite part of this talk was how he talked about truth and how we need to be able to discern things as they really are. This is so important for us to realize and to strive for. He also talked a lot about being aware of the alluring illusion of anonymity given off by cyberspace. He warned us against using media in such a way that we will not remember the importance of our physical bodies. He said that we should ask ourselves if what we are doing with cyberspace brings us closer to the spirit.
Video-I wanted to find things that I could suggest to my students that they could use themselves to help them learn to be safe on the internet. I found a lot of good games and animated video clips that I think would be good for children and would help them to learn what they should and shouldn't do to be safe on the internet.
4. The person I talked to (we will call him Patrick) already knew a lot about internet safety. He was even able to tell me about some things that I was not as knowledgeable about. However, he was not as aware of how to help little children to understand internet safety. So, when I shared the information that I had discovered on the kid friendly sites. I think that those sites would be so good because they have games, which interest children, so that the children can use them to learn more about internet safety while they are playing. I think Patrick will use the internet sites that I told him about to help him explain internet safety to children in a fun way that they will understand!
