Students often believe they have no control over who is able to contact them through social media and what is posted on their personal pages. Many children will remain silent because they are embarrassed and afraid their parents will overreact. The idea that their parents will engage with the other child, speak to other parents, or take away their devices is terrifying to them, so they do not say anything to an adult when cyberbullying happens. Also, children may not know that they have the power to block a person who is contacting them through technology. They do not have to passively accept the bullying. Whether it is on their phones or through social media they can choose to block the person so that they no longer need to deal with the bullying messages when they are safe at home. Parents and other trusted adults need to speak about cyberbullying openly and calmly with children. Adults should know that the best way to combat cyberbullying is to remain calm and understanding and communicate with children often. Adults need to make sure children know that they have control over who can contact them, that they are not alone, and that they should always let an adult know when cyberbullying occurs..

Last, make sure you have a strong, secure password you do not share, and always log out when you leave your social media site..

There are universal digital rights they should be aware of: They can speak their minds. They can show their creations to the world. They have the right to timely and correct information. They have the right to create an online persona. They have the right to ask for data protection..

Challenge 2: Responsibilities are Time Consuming to Teach..

Opportunity 2: Students Love the Internet..
