School violence always starts off with a bully. Bullies think
of themselves as that if they’re bigger and stronger than
you, they can do what ever they want like laugh at another
person, play practical jokes on others continuously, hurt
other people physically and emotionally, and in rare and
some cases, kill them. In some cases, school violence can be
involved from a person who can’t take any more bullying
and fights back, or that the person who starts the bully-
ing could be just doing it for fun. Bullies take pleasure in
hurting people, school fights are posted up on the Internet
all the time. The Internet is a great negative for school
violence because for example, a fight occurred at a school,
on the same day, a video of that same fight has been posted
up on the Internet.This act can extremely put down the
victim and leads into cyber-bulling, a reason why a person
would bullying another could be for just attention, or in a
case, peer pressure, being belonged to a group so they must
do this as an initiation or along the lines of that. The bully
shows very low moral maturity, bullies only think for them
selves and seek attention a lot of the times, they don’t think
of other people. The Internet should be used to develope
young minds, not destroy, abusing the Internet in this mat-
ter would be wrong.

To resolve the school violence for young peo-

ple, parents can do the following things. Its
important for young people to feel like they
can share their feelings with their parent’s, and
know that their fears and anxieties are under-
standable. Rather than waiting for them to ap-
proach you as a parent, start the conversation.
Ask the young person what they understand
about these incidents and help them through.
Help their moral decisions before they make
them and lead them int o making the right
decision. In Kolberg’s moral development
theory, its best to make a decision on justice,
in Kolberg’s theory justice is the sixth most
highest stage to perform.

hang up straight away. This was annoying and scaring Lucy
because Bob was always calling her and disturbing her all the
time. Even at night around 2:30a.m. Lucy was always scared
that her parents were going to find out and tried not to tell
anyone.

A week later, when Lucy was home by herself after school,

before her parents come from work, Bob was knocking on
her door and start threatening Lucy that he was going to tell
her parents. Lucy did not want her parents to know so she
started obeying Bob’s orders. Bob started blackmailing her
and took Lucy’s facebook password.

When Lucy went on her facebook account the next day, she
saw that someone has changed her account and added all
these other predators. Lucy went some of her profiles and saw
that inappropriate comments were left on their account from
her account and her mobile number was left on their account.
Lucy was getting random calls and whenever she answered it,
the voice would always say ‘I’m coming for you!!!’
Lucy was so upset and she did not tell anyone that she
couldn’t concentrate at school and dropped out of school. Af-
ter a week, she fell into depression and did not talk to anyone
properly. Her parents are really upset and want her daughter
back.
Lucy’s parents don’t want other parents to suffer like them
and are warning every parents to see who their kids are chat-
ting to and to delete MSN and social community sites.
We come to a conclusion that parents should be aware of
who their children are chatting to
because predators could be chat-
ting to your kids and your children
could be in danger. The internet
is destroying the lives of teenag-
ers because they could be sexually

Some people may say that the Internet is a negative thing,
for that your identity can be stolen, your home invaded
and your savings robbed without anyone setting foot
inside your home. It can be used to be known as one of
the most dangerous weapons ever created. Identity theft
is one of the misused things of the Internet for that a
person’s identity can be stolen and through the internet all
that you owned can be gone by those identity frauds out in
the world. Identity theft is a serious matter, it occurs when
someone uses your own personal identity information such
as your name, credit card number and social security num-
ber, all this action is taken place without even knowing to
commit fraud or other crimes. The actions that are taken by
identity thieves are; rent an apartment, obtain a credit card,
or establish a telephone account in your name.
Identity thieves can be seriously skilled in the matters
of holding information of ones identity, to the frauds

number of ways that a thief can contain your information

personal information about a person available to others
online.) that can be used to trace where they have been and
in many cases piece together information about their lives
and habits which, if they fall into the wrong hands can be
used to steal their identities, commit fraud or worse. The
information we leave on the internet has become a perma-
nent footprint in the digital world, an example would be
Your birth date from Facebook, your address details from
WhitePages, your Mother’s maiden name from Myspace,
Your school details on bebo. By leaving all these digital
footprints behind frauds and thieves use the internet to gain
access to all your digital footprints and therefore has suc-
cessfully stolen your identity.
Overall the internet may be considered as a negative to
many for the reasons of keeping away from danger and
trying to stay safe as possible from those identity frauds out
there in the world.

Internet users may not know it but the thievery can be

found out in the real world by retracing footprints. This is
where internet browsers like many people do not know but
in the digital world they leave behind a clear and systematic
series of digital footprints (the trail, traces or “footprints”
that people leave online. This is information transmitted
online, such as forum registration, e-mails and attachments,
uploading videos or digital images and any other form of
transmission of information, all of which leaves traces of

positive to the Internet because it makes life a lot easier, it

For the last 10 years, the Internet has gown so big, so huge,
and so enormous that it has become the most powerful
educational tool the earth has ever known. Take this school
for example, Parramatta Marist High, taking the advantage
of the Internet, Parramatta Marist High have moved to a
new learning system (for years 9-10) involving and encour-
aging students to use the Internet to find their information
and learn. They’re given learning projects that are happen-
ing out there in society.
The Internet has become a positive researching tool to
people. It has become an easier way for all those who seek
for fast ways of how to access the certain information they
have wanted. Throughout the Internet there is a variety of
information that contains many popular and reliable web-
sites such as: the latest current affairs, local news, videos
and quality information.
researching tools
The access to information using the Internet has made an
extreme impact and change to the society. This is stated
because the information that is placed onto the Internet is
summarised and is related information to what you would
read in a 1000 page book, for example by picking up a
1000 page encyclopaedia and reading it but finding at the
end of the book you have completely wasted your time
reading something that had no relevance to the topic you
are searching for. But when you type your topic you are
researching for through the Internet, in the click of the
mouse a large list of related information to your topic is
featured completely summarised and much better than what
you can receive from a book just in a matter of seconds.
The access to information has become a positive of the
Internet for that there are many different types of greater
information placed within the Internet such as;
* The access to view youth forums to questions you may you to have a private discussion to all your contacts you

* The access informational videos many people may put

opportunity of creating your own account to be able to up-

Is technology going to take over your job???
It is generally believed that people are wondering whether
changing nature of work develops or destroys young mind.
Changing nature of work is machines taking over unskilled
jobs and technology such as the Internet being used in our
day to day life. Two people have given their comments on
their view of changing nature of work. Bob is one of the
unskilled worker who has lost his job and been affected due
to the changing nature of work and couldn’t find a job be-
cause the job application are on the Internet and Bob does
not know how to use the Internet. John on the other hand
is a young person in his 20’s and is a skilled worker who has
recently got a job with a high pay salary because he knows
his way with technology and went to websites to find a wide
range of jobs available for his qualification.
Bob is an unskilled worker who had recently lost his job
after working at a factory sticking the labels on the bottles.
He has been in service for 30 years with a salary of $5,000
an year. He was working with 150 other people till one day,
the manager came with 5 machines and fired every un-
skilled workers from the factory. Bob had nowhere to work
because he had no qualifications and could not find a job
on the newspaper. Since most the jobs were on the Inter-
net such as www.seek.com. He was at home getting money
from Centrelink but it wasn’t enough to feed him and
pay his rent. He is currently going online to learn his way
around technology so he could find another job. Technolo-
gy has destroyed many unskilled jobs however it has created
a new market for both education and training.
John is a young skilled worker who
using the Internet gained a new job
with high pays recently because he
went to sites like www.seek.com and
found a job for his qualifications.
He had a wide rage to choose from
so John chose the job with the high-
est pay. John’s experience with the
Internet saw many companies offering
him employment. John is agreeing that
technology has improved many skilled
workers and has given a statement that
you can’t get anywhere in life today
without the Internet.
After looking at both views of chang-
ing nature of work, we can see that
technology has improved our society
and it is developing minds of young
people to get a great future.
 Remote and digital education
is a big revolution in education in
Australia. The aim of the program
is to contribute sustainable and
meaningful change to teaching
and learning in Australian schools
that will prepare students for
further education, training, jobs
of the future and to live and work
in a digital world. A good defini-
tion of digital education is the use
of electronic means to distribute
education or training for education
or business. This could be televi-
sion, videotape, interactive video,
audio-graphics, satellite video or
any other electronic means.
Remote education allows adult
students to take classes whenever
and where ever they are. Busi-
nesses are able to offer training
sessions to employees at several
sites. Middle school teachers
can show the dissection of a frog
without having to do it in the
classroom. High school students
in a rural area are able to take
advanced courses even though
there is not a teacher in the local
school district certified to teach
the course.
Remote education allows adult
students to complete their degrees
or even get their high school
diploma. Degree programs can be
completed at any college or uni-
versity in the world. Students are
able to do so on their own sched-
ules even if they work 9 to 5.
there is also different technologies
used in remote education:
* telephone
* broadcast video
* Internet chat (such as MSN)
* video conferencing
* net meeting
Remote and digital education
has had trouble since its mak-
ing with the testing of material.
The problem comes up when the
student is required to complete
assignments and testing. If it is
quizzes, tests, or examinations;
Online courses have had difficulty
controlling cheating because of
the lack of teacher control.To sum
up remote and digital education is
a big revolution for the disadvan-

E-commerce is the term that refers to how the trans-
action of information and money related transaction
that can be done easily by the clicks of a mouse via
the Internet. It also refers to how people can buy
and sell goods via the Internet; examples for buying
and selling through the Internet include ebay.com.
E-Commerce can also consist of creating a website
that promotes a store or a product via another web-
site; whenever you see pop ups, or advertisements
on the borders of a website remember that this is an
e-commerce promotion. In recent years, however, E-
commerce has become much more complicated. E-
commerce businesses now propose highly structured
online stores. Customers can now glance through
thousands of products, place an order, select the
preferred postage method and pay for their purchases
using their credit cards-www.bigw.com.au/online-
stores is an example of online stores. Online stores
accept payment only from credit cards; Credit cards
can include Visa, Mastercard, bank cards etc.
E-commerce can be easier way to access to the
peoples needs and wants. This means that you don’t
have to get out of your house to go to the conve-
nience stores and supermarkets. It saves time for the
people who cannot afford to waste time on shopping,
banking and selling. A sample survey was taken in
2007 by channel 7 news on the amount of people
who work from 8-10 hours a day – did you know
that the results showed a whopping 61% of parents
are away from home. These are the people who can’t
afford to waste time include those who work from
9-5; parents particularly who have young and always
who are always busy. These people need to have ac-
cess to E-commerce.

people like these are so hectic that they really need
the internet to do E-banking, E-shopping and paying
the bills online. These single parents who struggle to
find the necessary time to do E-commerce need the
internet to make life a lot lot easier.
Those people who are unable to get out of their
house such as the people who have medical symp-
toms, physical disability and those with mental
disability are unable to go to the supermarket or
specialty stores so in these cases the Internet is ex-
tremely necessary. The funny rule is that the Internet
does not have trading hours, this means that shop-
ping online is the most convenient source of shop-
ping as the Internet is open 24/7. Isn’t that the most
convenient shopping centre?
