DR DON GRANT - UNPLUG TO RECONNECT: HEALTHY DEVICE MANAGEMENT & THE PRACTICE ...iCAADEvents
Millennial technology pro ers previously unimaginable opportunities which have forever changed much of our daily lives. Conversely, technology and devices have also become the newest and most potentially dangerous “drugs of choice”. Those struggling with anxiety, depression and other mental, emotional or behavioural issues seem to be at an even greater risk for technology “addiction”. Recent research has indicated that it can lower relationship and life satisfaction in couples. Similarly, adolescents who struggled with device management had lower levels of self esteem and were more likely to manifest social anxiety disorders. Dr. Grant will explore this newest nemesis currently growing to seemingly pandemic global proportions, illustrating both the positive and potentially negative e ects of technology, and o er strategies and skills to help promote healthy device management and to practice good “Digital Citizenship.”

Students Creating and Submitting Digital Presentations Using PanoptoKonstantina Martzoukou
With the current shift experienced in Higher Education towards micro-learning, flipped and blended classrooms, class recordings may involve different types of activities in addition to lecture capture. For example, staff may use recordings for walk-through demonstrations, practical sessions, revision activities, and assessment overviews. In addition, recordings may be used for non-teaching purposes, such as course orientation, guest talks and resources designed to support students’ accessibility, widening participation, inclusivity, belongingness and study flexibility. However, there can also be student-led recorded presentations, which help students to develop a range of professional skills, such as effective presentation, team-work and digital literacy skills. The recording of student presentations may also help to simplify moderation and quality assurance processes.

Citizens’ approaches to evaluating political ‘facts’ in the fake news era by Rita Marcella and Graeme Baxter
Abstract
Recent years have seen significant public discourse surrounding the concepts of ‘post-truth politics’, ‘fake news’, and ‘alternative facts’ online, with much of it focusing on ‘Brexit’ or Donald Trump’s election campaign and presidency. This webinar will reflect upon recent research into fact response, fact checking, and the journey of the political fact. This research, conducted during the 2017 UK General Election campaign, consisted of two interrelated studies: 1) an online survey of the general public (n = 538); and 2) a series of 23 electronically-assisted interviews with citizens in North-East Scotland. Both studies explored the tactics and heuristics used in evaluating the credibility of ‘facts’ presented online by Scottish political actors.

9. ROBLOX JAILBREAK
Found a helicopter: a “nice” cop came to pick up prisoners.
Are they corrupt?
I am a prisoner and need to escape!
10. This is the military base. You can’t get in! But I managed with the helicopter.On a bike. We bought this one. It is not stolen!
I got a gun and changed normal clothes so policy can’t recognise and off to
robbing.
Shooting. It’s a violent game!
11. I went to steal a bank and I had to jump but I died because I didn’t manage the lasers! The alarm was going off the whole time. I am training to steal.
I got the money, $1,500! Now I can spend it in this game on whatever
I want.
I used dynamite and exploded the roof of this building. I went in to steal.
12. ROBLOX: VEHICLE SIMULATOR
“Teaches you about cars. You learn to drive. You can go on
manual and you can change gears” (8 year old).
That’s me driving a Subaru
13. ROBLOX: ROYALE HIGH
You go to school (and have homework), go to lessons (e.g.
painting), to parties, to the prom.
14. Tried to type: “I live in Scotland” and type in my name – It does not allow you
15. ROBLOX SUPPORT
1. Block and report:
Make sure your child knows how to find and use the report and block functions. Use
the Roblox how to make a report page to learn how to do this.
Safety settings:
Set up the parental controls that are right for your family. You can also disable chat,
set up the Parent PIN and use the Account Restrictions within Roblox.
Settings for under 13s:
There are additional safety features for under-13s , so it’s worth checking your child’s
account is registered with the correct age. Players under the age of 13 have a <13
symbol next to their username on the game at all times, however this is not displayed
to other players.
2. Encourage them to tell you about concerns
Remind your child that they should come to you if they ever see something
inappropriate, mean comments or if anything worries them within the game. If you
know how to report this type of content within Roblox, you will be in the best position
to help them if they need it.
https://www.saferinternet.org.uk/blog/roblox-guide-parents
16. Snapchat
Photo and video-sharing app with filters (and with a twist): media
you send disappear seconds after they are viewed. Messages in
group chat disappear after 24 hours.
There are ways to capture and recover images – a false sense of
“security” (e.g. saving images by tapping them or taking a
screenshot).
My Eyes Only
“If you ever get a Snap that you want to keep extra private, you can
always add it to My Eyes Only! That way, you can hand over your
phone to friends when sharing Memories, without being worried
they might catch an eyeful of something meant just for you 🙈”

19. POSITIVE ASPECTS
RISKS
• connect with friends
• watch videos from others around
the world
• develop and showcase one’s
creativity and talent
• build a community around interests
• create some great special effects
• play and interact with friends
• express feelings
• can report bad content
• Digital Wellbeing feature: control your
spent time on TikTok and limit the
appearance of content that may not be
appropriate for all audiences.
• Screen Time Management: Helps you to
hold yourself to 2 hours on the app per
day (parents set a passcode).
• default public account but also options for a
private account (approved followers can send
you messages)
• strangers could directly contact children:
people can like or react to a video, follow an
account and send messages
• risk taking to get more followers/ likes
• constant stimulation every single moment
• can become addictive
• to delete your account you have to request a
code from the app using your phone
number/email
• children make different types of videos
including sexually suggestive
• no policy to stop young kids to join the
21. SOCIAL SKILLS (SCENARIO 1 & 6)
Addictive form of screen entertainment.
May replace learning the hard social "work" of dealing face-to-face
with peers.
Children are adopting newer social media and games: social
pressure.
Parents are not always aware of the social issues:
almost a quarter of 8-11s and three-quarters of 12-15s have a social media profile
Snapchat has increased in popularity, doubled since 2016 (Snapstreaks: children send
each other messages every day over consecutive days)
one in ten 12-15s have ‘gone live’ by sharing a video using live streaming services such
as Facebook Live, Snapchat’s Live Stories or Instagram Live, while a third have not shared
content themselves but have watched live streamsOFCOM’S MEDIA LITERACY RESEARCH PROGRAMME

22. SCENARIO 2 & 5
Tweens immature for social media?
Social media was not designed for preteens
(8-12 year olds):
teaching the maturity that social media
requires is difficult:
cognitive brain is still forming: can’t
manage the distraction nor the
temptations that come with social media
use.
“more is better” mentality (friends lists,
followers, time spent)
parents are not always aware of the
minimum age requirements

23. Help children understand the importance of
personal information.
Make use of the safety features available when
setting a profile.
Use available guides on social media.
Set rules around spending money in games.
Moral panic: no need to panic every time you
hear a media report about the harmful effects of
technology and connectivity.
Experiment: Keep up and experiment with new
apps & games so that you can understand them
(new ones appears all the time).
Keep lines of communication open: Mostly about
critical thinking, the values and social skills that
can be taught.
SCENARIO 3
24. SCENARIO 4
Parents teaching children responsible use (Safety, privacy, reputation, time
management), values and social skills at early age
-Keeping the lines of communication open: engaged manner
Explore favourite tools/games— genuine interest (through conversation, watching or
playing)
Regular conversations: Work together to find what is appropriate
More parents are concerned about their children’s media use, and more are
taking action:
regularly talking to their children about staying safe online;
using technical tools, e.g. network filters to filter content on all devices connected to the
home broadband network has increased;
supervising their child;
using rules.

SCENARIO 4
MC & Digital Awareness UK (DAUK) Survey 2,750 pupils
aged 11-18
• Almost half (45%) of students admit they check their
mobile device after going to bed. Of those:
• A quarter (23%) check their mobile device more than
10 times a night
• A quarter (25%) spend more than an hour on their
mobile device after going to bed (just over 11% of the
whole)
• A third (32%) of these students’ parents are not
aware that they check their mobile device after going
to bed
Other findings show that:
• 68% of students say that using their mobile devices at
night affects their school work.
• A quarter of students (25%) also say they feel tired during
the day because of how often they use their mobile device
at night
• Almost half (42%) of students keep their phone next to
their bed at night
