New NSBA Report on Social Networking
New NSBA Report on Social Networking
Andy Carvin's blog at PBS on the new NSBA (US National School Boards Association) study on Social Networking and student use. Some interesting notes are the improvement in the children's sense of safety online (m0re private sites, not as much personal info, less interaction with shady characters)

Andy did a really nice article on it. Well worth a read.
