The document discusses perspectives on the influence of digital technology and media on children and youth. It explores both positive and negative impacts. On the positive side, studies discussed show virtual reality games can help children with brain injuries improve skills, and providing school computers increased attendance and self-esteem. However, risks like internet addiction, cyberbullying, and how social inequalities still exist online are also examined. The document concludes by arguing for balance, with digital media use monitored and combined with real-world activities.

Does the Usage of Internet harm Child Development?
Is the internet the safest technology in the world? Should parents have second thoughts before letting their children use the internet? These kind questions always run through my mind when someone refers about the internet, but I will explain what the internet really is about. The internet is a global communication interconnecting millions of computers. Children use the internet for various reasons, but the most significant reasons are for information, communication, entertainment and school performance. According to Thompson S.H Teo study, Internet users used the Internet mainly because they perceived the Internet to be more valuable to their job tasks and secondarily because it is enjoyable and easy to use (Omega, 27.1). The internet has many positive aspects, but it also seems to have adverse effects too. Vint Cerf, the creator of the internet predicted that this technology will affect the future and developing areas such as artificial intelligence and child development. Although the internet is the most useful technology for child development, it also has a harmful effect on social, physical and cognitive development of modern children lifestyle.
Social development refers to an alteration in the social structure of a social group or society to enhance the capacity of a society in order to finish their objective. It has a target in developing power to increase human activity. The internet can improve children and their school-based education and can be used as a tool for creativity and intellectual work in groups. Also, Gonca Karayagiz said:
“Computers have occupied increasingly central roles in children's world with the advance of technology. They have proved to be an ideal companion for children in developing and developed countries who spend most of their time at school or home with computers. As a measure of development and modernization, technology has made people's lives easier and contributed positively to social well-being so far while it has also brought about some problems and threats stemming from irresponsible use of the internet”( Karayagiz).
Creativity, intellectual work in group, school-based learning can be improved by the usage of the internet.
However, when excessively used, the internet can also take children away from their usual life work such as chores, homework, and engaging with family and friends. There are also other dangerous concern involving the usage of internet inappropriate content, such as violence, pornography and abusive language. Pornography is one of the severe impacts on child development. The erotic picture that has the intention to release sexual behavior is known as pornography. Pornography is an easy way harm children and their developing childhood.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

Perspectives of the Digital World
Maggie Cutler made it obvious in the 2001 article “Whodunit-The Media” that children
are affected by the worldwide media, but mostly their lives at home in a positive or negative way
depending on position. Cutler uses examples of studies to prove her point, but testifies that said
studies were not reliable as there are too many factors in real life that cannot be duplicated in the
studies. Like Cutler, Jonathan Gruber reviews several studies in the eBook, “Problems Of
Disadvantaged Youth: An Economic Perspective” that define many factors in children’s lives
that do not involve technology as the base of the problem.Based on another study, the abstract of
“Usual And Virtual Reality Video Game-based Physiotherapy For Children And Youth With
Acquired Brain Injuries” speaks of a VR video game that “motivate the children (with brain
injuries) to challenge performance quality and optimize real-life functioning.” Cynical,Steven
Barreto and Sue K. Adams’ “Digital Technology And Youth: A Developmental Approach”
wrotea guide for parents on restricting the technological media. However,Craig Watkins
embraces technological media inThe Young &The Digital; he states the world as we know it is
going digital with social-networking becoming more popular; and available along with other
technology based media such as smart phones and video games.Wired for What? The Dividends
of Universal Accessis an informal video recorded in 1999 based on computer technology
entering an elementary school; however, this information is dated and this isn’t such a big thing
anymore; compared to Craig Watkins The Young & The Digital. Despite what some say, there
2. Moore2
are positives for every negative influence the digital world shares with the real world; and even
though both worlds are similar, we should find a perfect balance between the two.
There are some positive outlooks on the technology based-media of today. A film-on-
demand Wired For What? The Dividends of Universal Access produced in 1999, shows Hoover
Elementary school’s200 computers on site and how affective they are with the children
academically and socially. The school provides their teaching skills to the low-wealth students,
this is important because it was uncommon for low wealth schools to be able to afford 200
computers and have them installed. Gary Dalton, principal of Hoover Elementary states, “I think
computers havehelpedattendance, for the kids to come, because they love working with
computers.” This shows my ideal that technology is beneficial for the youth because it entertains
them and teaches them at once. An example given by a teacher talking about a student states the
student had very low self-esteem, but he is good with computers, and would help other students
that didn’t understand this new expensive technology he would help that student; this raised his
self-esteem. This example shows computers are beneficial for social life as well. Another
example of beneficial technology is displayed in an abstract of the article “Usual and Virtual
Reality Video Game-based Physiotherapy for Children and Youth Acquired Brain Injuries”; it
mentions a virtual reality video game based therapy that promotes children with acquired brain
injuries learn functional motor skills. The abstract authors state, “Physiotherapists describe using
interventions that motivatechildren to challenge performance quality and optimize real-life
functioning.” This is beneficial because in the future kids with brain injuries could be helped at
home. The VR needs work for it cannot consider the unique characteristics of the child as would
a therapist. However, the example of VR game shows the possibilities for the digital world are
3. Moore3
endless once we perfect them. The examples show how the digital world can be helpful for
people in the real world.
On the other hand, technology based media has a dark side; therefore, evidence from The
Young & the Digital and other sources for a negative perspective. For example, Craig S. Watkins
mentions Internet addiction which is something we can all obtain. It is caused by spending more
hours on the computer; the digital native cannot do anything else. Internet addiction is a negative
influence on the real world caused by the digital world. Steven Barreto and Sue Adams state
children are susceptible to digital dependence as well as cyber bullying behavior. The digital
dependence is much like addiction; it can consume a child’s life and make them into technology
addicted adults that must have a piece of the digital world and will go through loops to get it.
Cyber bullying is in the digital world from the influences of the real world, the abuse never stops
for the children from bullies at school in the real world. Today’s digital world can allowbullies to
mentally harm their victims through social-network websites. The relentless non-stopping abuse
of the bullies has pushed his or her victims to therapy;and for the less fortunate to suicide.These
examples are just some of the negative influences that the digital world can promote.It is agreed
that these negative influences are from the technology around us but there is evidence of sources
that cause harm to kids that are real rather than digital. Yet, the fact remains technology based-
media has negative influences in our lives.
However, in the real and digital worlds there remains a likeness between them yet this
likeness should not matter in both worlds. Craig S. Watkins states “despite the utopian view that
the Web provides a place and a way to escape the social burden and divisions of the off-line
world, this has never been true” (76). Truth is both worlds are dependent on social inequalities.
Watkins interprets the words of a blogger to explain this point more precisely:
4. Moore4
Drawing from some of the more familiar social cliques among young people,
Boyd equates the “preps” and the “jocks” with Facebook. MySpace kids, in
contrast, come from the other side of the cultural divide. According to Boyd, they
are the “kids whose parents didn’t go to college, who are expected to get a job
when they finish high school. (76)
Watkins prove that the social inequalities of the rich and poor in real-life matter in the digital
world by using the words of a peer amongst all digital users. Watkins asked college students,
“Which social-network site do you visit most often?” 84 percent of white students preferred
Facebook; while Latino students preferred MySpace. With my own eyes, I have seen classrooms
split apart by races; however the students picked their own seats and sat accordingly with their
friends. Social inequalities happen generally happen because it is human nature to cling on to
what you know. These social inequalities are in the real world as well as the digital and they are
both negative influences; but the fact of social inequalities is they will be infinite because it is
human nature and no one is equal. This is the ugly similarity of real-life and the digital.
Not all agree the digital world is the best for the future of generations to come, but those
who object the digital world miss the fact that it is not technology causing the problems; it’s a
bad life. As I mentioned previously The Brown University Child and Adolescent Behavior Letter
clearly has a negative outlook on the digital world, and created a parental guide for this
technology use amongst children. Remember the negative perspectives of the digital world; now
how can children become addicted to the internet or becoming a cyber-bully or becoming a
victim? Answer: Only if we let them. The Brown University states “Internet access was available
in 84% of subjects (children) homes” (4) and played ona computer for an hour and half, but the
authors do not say that the parents bought the computer and let the kids play on this technology
5. Moore5
unsupervised. Jonathan Gruber author of “Problems of Disadvantaged Youth: An Economic
Perspective” speaks of a study with two teams. One team mission was to prove “there is little to
suggest that changing the school environment will improve the outcomes of these disadvantaged
children” (4).Meanwhile, another teams study was to prove “better school quality leads to better
outcomes” (4). However, the outcome of this study was no change in the disadvantaged children.
The reason why is because the real world means more to kids than the digital world and are not
affected by technology negatively unless allowed to. Even the Brown University Child and
Adolescent Behavior Letter stated a question “Do your parents know about all the things you do
on the Internet?” This very question shows proof that some parents do not take the responsibility
of the limiting the digital world from children. So it is true that technology can negatively
influence our entire live but less likely if we put a foot down on the situation.
My proposal is for those seeking a balance between the digital and real world are like
those in the Brown University letter but with a difference. Take my 8 year-old cousin for
example; she says she has only played on the computer for an hour to an hour and half, but she
really means 3 hours. She plays on the computer under supervision, so instead of blocking
everything off the computer; we advise he on what sites she is allowed to use and ones that are
not safe. With me sitting next to her or just glancing by at the screen when I walk by keeps her
safe from cyber bullies. Including trip to the park never hurts, kids love to play with the ones
they love most, this keeps them safe from addiction and dependence on the digital world. This
balance of real-life events and surveyed digital use can help the kids find balance the worlds of
real and digital.
The positive, negative and similar effects the digital world has on the real world thanks to
my sources; which inspired my proposal for balance between both worlds. The digital world
6. Moore6
much like real-life is exciting and dangerous for us all. Balance between the real worldand digital
world is possible; we just have to find it.
