How do you reconcile the provisions in the COPPA law and the Production Gap? Given these two seemingly polar issues what are our responsibilities as educators?
- Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998
- The Digital Production Gap: The Digital Divide and Web 2.0 Collide
- Technology Educators Decry New Digital Divide

This is something that all teachers struggle with (including myself). How do you reconcile the two? Would be interested in everyone's thoughts.
ReplyDeleteI struggle with this over and over! I just discovered Panraven.com & would love to use it with my 5th-8th gr kids, but...."must be 13."
ReplyDeleteThis site from the FTC (which enforces COPPA) is VERY interesting, although I think it creates more questions than it answers -
