Research Cop 3

For cop3, I want to investigate about the internet and teenagers. As I and everyone is awaring that the internet become a significant part of routine and life for people nowadays especially teenagers. Nowadays teenagers use the internet without knowing if it good or bad for them. 

These are some useful quotes that I found from this article (http://www.pewinternet.org/2007/10/24/parent-and-teen-internet-use/)  :-

  • 89% of online teens say the internet and other devices in their lives like cell phones, iPods, and digital cameras make their lives easier, while 71% of their parents say these technologies make their lives easier.
  • 87% of parents who have a child ages 12-17 use the internet
  • Parents who use the internet frequently have teenage children who use the internet frequently.
  • the tech profile of parents and teens often mirror each other. Parents who use the internet frequently have teenage children who use the internet frequently.
  • Eighty-eight percent of all teens say that technology devices make their lives easier, compared with 69% of all parents who were asked about technology’s role in their own lives.
  • parents who are highly educated are more likely to think that email and the internet have been good things for their children than parents with less education.
  •  Over two-thirds of parents (68%) say they have rules about the kinds of internet sites their teenaged children can or cannot visit, as well as rules about what kinds of information their children can share with people they talk to on the internet.
Of course there are so many things that we can argue with thos quotes. I just need to read more books/articles/journals.
