Recruiting Millenials for Military Servicecolin_powell
A presentation put together by some Navy experts regarding the difficulty of recruiting "millennials," Americans aged 17 to 24, to the armed forces. In the words of the presentation, the kids are not alright: They're "coddled," "narcissistic praise junkies" who "demand respect" though they lack experience, and who are so comfortable with technology that talking to them is like "dealing with a somewhat alien life force."
1. Millennials are growing up in a world shaped by globalization and technology. They are the most educated generation yet and display high levels of civic engagement.
2. Technology is deeply integrated into millennials' lives through constant media use and an ability to multitask across different devices and online platforms. This influences how they socialize and get information.
3. Millennials face a number of contradictions - they are confident but also seek constant praise, and are delaying careers despite pressure to succeed. Understanding these dynamics will be important for engaging this upcoming generation.

This document provides a summary of research on digital health and safety issues, particularly regarding social media use and cyberbullying among teens. Some key points:
- Teens are consuming more online information than ever before. Critical thinking skills are important for evaluating online content.
- Employers often review applicants' online profiles, and inappropriate content can negatively impact career opportunities.
- Anonymity online may breed irresponsibility, as seen on sites like Chatroulette where users can encounter unwanted contact.
- Research shows nearly half of teens have experienced harassment online, such as private messages or photos being shared without consent. However, most teens believe bullying occurs more offline.
- While online harassment is prevalent, the majority
Amaze generation phase 2 final - October 2013Microsoft
This document summarizes the key findings from the second phase of a long-term study on today's digital generation. The study follows 10-15 year olds to understand their relationship with digital technologies and the internet. Key findings include:
- Facebook continues to be widely used by the group, though boys use it more than girls. Staying connected with friends is the main reason for using Facebook.
- Girls tend to be spectators on Facebook rather than contributors, while boys are more likely to update their status daily. Both are aware of how they are perceived online.
- Most brands fail to engage this generation, who prefer following celebrities. Misunderstandings are easy on Facebook given the lack of emotional cues, so
International comparison of the state of Internet safety for children and youthThinkB4UClick
This document provides a summary of survey results from three primary schools (in Slovenia, Spain, and Turkey) regarding internet safety and cyberbullying among students and parents. Some key findings:
- Most students in all three countries have internet access at home and use social media daily, though awareness of dangers varies.
- Parents are concerned about internet dangers but many lack knowledge on safety topics like cyberbullying. Most want more education from schools.
- While cyberbullying is recognized as a problem, most students still see physical violence as the greatest threat.
This document discusses keeping kids safe online and provides strategies for parents. It notes that nearly all incoming college freshmen have had internet access their whole K-12 career. Common concerns include pornographic websites, chat rooms, social networking, and cyberbullying. However, studies show sexual assaults on teens have decreased and most victims willingly meet online predators. At Edgewood School, 12% of students have been bullied or contacted by strangers online. When asked how to stay safe, 79% of students said not to share personal information or communicate with strangers. The document recommends parents set limits, monitor online activity, and talk to their kids about being safe online.
Bay Area Symposium_Dusti_PPT Presentation 9/27/12Dustianne North
This document summarizes key findings from a report on the impact of social media on adolescent behavioral health in California. It finds that most teens use social media daily, with texting and social networking being most common. While social media allows connection and support, it can also pose risks like cyberbullying, privacy issues, and mental health impacts. The report recommends that parents, schools, and organizations be aware of both benefits and risks of social media use, and provide resources and education to help teens use it positively. It also discusses considerations for using social media in mentoring, including maintaining strong boundaries while allowing connection outside of in-person meetings.
- Between 10-33% of youth have experienced cyberbullying, which includes having private material shared without permission, receiving threatening messages, and having embarrassing photos posted without consent.
- While bullying occurs more frequently offline, cyberbullying affects around 1 in 3 online teens and can cause extreme distress.
- New technologies have diversified the ways bullying can occur, but the underlying behaviors of bullying have not changed - only the means through which it happens. Addressing the issue requires understanding that bullying crosses all boundaries where children interact.
Internet safety: Myth or Achievable Goal?Timothy Corey
Protecting kids online is a difficult task. This presentation walks you through some of the dangers of the Internet before turning the corner on how to help shield kids from these types of dangers. This is not a talk on "how to live in a bubble". Rather, it is how to be smart about your kids interactions with the digital world.

Designed for community leaders, Parenting the Net Generation addresses family interests and concerns on issues that arise when young people go online. The workshop touches briefly on many key Internet issues including safety, privacy, marketing, ethics and cyberbullying, and evaluation of online information.
This document summarizes an analysis of student and parent surveys conducted as part of an internet safety education program. It finds that while the vast majority of parents believe they have established rules for their children's internet usage and know what their children do online, many students report that their parents do not have rules or understand their internet activities. This "internet generation gap" exposes dangers as students may not be properly educated on internet safety risks. The document examines how internet predators have adapted their methods to target children online, and various approaches to internet safety education, highlighting the importance of active learning lessons to help students internalize safety concepts.
The document summarizes research on teens' online behaviors and experiences. Some key findings include:
- 32% of online teens reported contact with a complete stranger, but only 7% found it disturbing. Girls and those who posted photos were more likely to experience contact.
- 32% experienced some form of online bullying, like rumors or embarrassing photos posted without permission. Social network users faced higher risks.
- Exposure to inappropriate content was reported by 24% of parents, though teens often encountered it accidentally.
- Monitoring and rules varied among families, but most teens were aware of parental oversight online.
The document discusses a new approach to online safety called Online Safety 3.0. It argues that traditional fear-based approaches focusing only on risks are obsolete and irrelevant to youth. Online Safety 3.0 is research-based, respects youth agency, and aims to empower youth rather than view them only as potential victims. It focuses on both safety from harm and safety for full participation in online communities. The document advocates treating online safety as a whole-school responsibility and promoting digital citizenship and media literacy skills.

This presentation was delivered by the DHSEM Communications Specialist at the 2014 Colorado Safe Schools Summit. It discussing using social media to response and monitor in the school setting.
This document summarizes key findings from a 2015 social media and digital tools report on high school students' college research habits. Some of the main points covered in 3 sentences or less include:
Students are heavy users of digital tools and social media for college research, with nearly 90% using at least one of the top 8 sites listed. Mobile devices are also increasingly important, with over 80% visiting college websites on mobile and one-third submitting applications from a mobile device. While social media use for initial research is declining, sites like Facebook, YouTube and Instagram are still frequently used once students have started applying to schools.
1) An annual survey of over 1,500 youth found that approximately one-third reported being victims of internet harassment in the form of rude comments or rumors being spread about them online.
2) Youth who were victims of traditional bullying, spent more time online, were older, and came from wealthier families were more likely to be victims of internet harassment.
3) Approximately one-fifth of youth reported perpetrating internet harassment against others, mainly through rude comments or spreading rumors.
4) Youth who were traditional bullies, victims of internet harassment themselves, used alcohol, and had tendencies toward anger were more likely to perpetrate internet harassment.
The document summarizes the results of a survey of over 2,000 teens on their online habits, technology use, music and media preferences, spending habits, and views on the economy. It finds that most teens spend 3-6 hours online daily and prefer sites like Facebook, that hip hop and pop music are most popular, and that the recession has led 85% of teens to change their spending habits.
This document provides a summary of Kristen Purcell's presentation on teens and technology in 2012. Some key points:
- Teen internet and cell phone use remains high but has leveled off in recent years while increasing for older age groups. Fewer teens talk daily on cell phones but texting volume has increased.
- Most teens access the internet on a desktop/laptop rather than a cell phone. Location-based services are used by only 6% of teens overall.
- Differences exist among teen subgroups - older teens, those from higher income households, and Hispanic teens have higher rates of cell phone ownership and use.
The average school district faces the threat of teen suicide about every two weeks. Social media enables cyberbullying, which increases suicidal thoughts and can result in immense tragedy. However, leaving social media open and using tools like Securly's sentiment analysis technology, which detects phrases related to depression and suicide in social media posts, can help schools identify students in need of support and prevent teen suicide by combating its root cause of cyberbullying. The analysis of over 500,000 social media posts found that 1 in 50 posts expressed negative behaviors like cyberbullying or suicidal thoughts, and social media provides an opportunity to help the 60% of cyberbullying victims who do not currently seek adult assistance.

It also describes the CyberMentors program which trains students to support their peers and has been shown to reduce bullying.
The document summarizes research on cyberbullying among teens. It finds that between 10-33% of youth report being cyberbullied, though most cyberbullying occurs offline at school. While not more common than online harassment, cyberbullying can be highly distressing for the 14% of teens it affects each year. New technologies like cell phones have introduced new platforms for bullying behaviors, but the underlying impulses have not changed. More coordinated research is still needed to fully understand the issue.
An updated look at the research and definitions around bullying and cyberbullying. Presented to the Youth Online Safety Working Group assembled by NCMEC, this talk unpacks both what current research can tell us about cyberbullying as well as where the gaps our understanding of this issue lie.

ids have been bullying each other for gener-
ations. The latest generation, however, has
been able to utilize technology to expand
their reach and the extent of their harm. This phe-
nomenon is being called cyberbullying, defined as:
“willful and repeated harm inflicted through the use
of computers, cell phones, and other electronic de-
vices.” Basically, we are referring to incidents where
adolescents use technology to harass, threaten, hu-
miliate, or otherwise hassle their peers. For exam-
ple, youth can send hurtful text messages to others
or spread rumors using smartphones or tablets.
Teens have also created web pages, videos, and
profiles on social media platforms making fun of
others. With mobile devices, adolescents have tak-
en pictures in a bedroom, a bathroom, or another
location where privacy is expected, and posted or
distributed them online. Others have recorded un-
authorized videos of other kids and uploaded them
for the world to see, rate, tag, and discuss. Still oth-
ers are embracing anonymous apps or chat func-
tionality on gaming networks to tear down or hu-
miliate others.
What are some negative effects that cyber-
bullying can have on a person?
There are many detrimental outcomes associated
with cyberbullying that reach into the real world.
First, many targets report feeling depressed, sad,
angry, and frustrated. As one teenager stated: “It
makes me hurt both physically and mentally. It
scares me and takes away all my confidence. It
makes me feel sick and worthless.” Those who are
victimized by cyberbullying also reveal that they are
often afraid or embarrassed to go to school. In ad-
dition, research has revealed a link between cyber-
bullying and low self-esteem, family problems, aca-
demic difficulties, school violence, and various de-
linquent behaviors. Finally, cyberbullied youth also
report having suicidal thoughts, and there have
been a number of examples in the United States
and abroad where youth who were victimized end-
ed up taking their own lives.
Where does cyberbullying commonly occur?
Cyberbullying occurs across a variety of venues and
mediums in cyberspace, and it shouldn’t come as a
surprise that it occurs most often where teenagers
congregate. Initially, many kids hung out in chat
rooms, and as a result that is where most harass-
ment took place. In recent years, most youth are
have been drawn to social media (such as Insta-
gram, Snapchat, and Twitter) and video-sharing
sites (such as YouTube). This trend has led to in-
creased reports of cyberbullying occurring in those
environments. Voice chat, textual chat, and texting
via phones or tablets also can provide an environ-
ment in whi.
The document discusses cyberbullying, defining it as tormenting, harassing, or embarrassing someone using technology. About 33% of teens experience cyberbullying, which can cause depression and increase suicide risk. Cyberbullying occurs to show off, for fun, or out of revenge, and affects middle and high school students most. While technology enables cyberbullying, it also provides tools to combat it. Schools, parents, teens, and lawmakers all need to take action to address cyberbullying and improve the situation.
The document provides information on cyber bullying, including definitions, types, prevalence, legal issues, and current programs and responses. It discusses how cyber bullying is different than traditional bullying. The document also outlines an assessment tree called the "PEAS program" which takes a multi-factorial, therapeutic approach to addressing cyber bullying incidents within a school. This includes psychological, educational, and social interventions for both victims and perpetrators.
Cyber bullying involves tormenting, harassing, threatening, or humiliating a child or teen through electronic means such as mean text messages, emails, or posts on social media. It can happen 24/7 and often the bullies are anonymous. Cyber bullying is associated with increased risk of depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, drug and alcohol use, and even suicide. Teachers can help prevent cyber bullying by educating students about online safety, creating anti-bullying task forces, and making sure to recognize and address signs of cyber bullying.

This document discusses cyberbullying and provides information about what it is, statistics around its prevalence, and resources to address it. Cyberbullying involves tormenting, threatening, harassing or humiliating someone online using technology like social media. It affects many teens, though few talk to parents about incidents. The document outlines different types of cyberbullying and compares it to traditional bullying. It also provides lesson plans and resources for teachers, parents and students to help prevent and address cyberbullying.
Patrick Burton provided an overview of the South African context, where only 23 per cent of children live with both parents, 55 per cent live below the poverty line, and 48.7 per cent have been exposed to violence in their community. Furthermore, 89 per cent of households in South Africa have a mobile phone, while only 21 per cent have a computer; 25 per cent of children who had a negative online experience missed school while 31 per cent reported difficulty concentrating. Media panics are resulting in tough legislation: in South Africa, sexting laws can result in lifetime registration as a sex offender, even when consensual. The use context and legal context raise questions about how research can inform interventions and potentially result in policy change.
Burton explored what counts as evidence, discussing how media panics often drive policy discussion, and asked participants to consider how to use data to respond. He emphasised the importance of project evaluation when engaging in high-quality, rigorous research. A significant challenge in studying children and young people’s internet use is the current legislation that criminalises sexting and requires mandatory reporting. Burton recommends involving children and young people in the survey development process, so as to ask children and young people about what is important to them.
The document discusses various aspects of youth safety on social networking sites and the internet. It notes that social networking allows teens to socialize, explore identity, and engage in content creation. However, it can also expose teens to risks like inappropriate solicitation, cyberbullying, and showing off behavior. The document emphasizes that internet safety is complex with no single solution, and that risks online often reflect ones in the real world. A collaborative long-term approach is needed to help teens harness benefits and address issues.
1 in 3 teenagers have been intimidated online, with 19 year old boys being the largest age group targeted. Traditional bullies often engage in cyberbullying as well. A survey found that 34% of middle school students aged 11-15 years old reported being cyberbullied through threatening texts, online gossip or hurtful comments. While cell phones are the most common means of cyberbullying, social media apps see girls more likely to cyberbully than boys, who tend to bully through online gaming. Most teenagers do not report cyberbullying incidents.
This document summarizes the findings of a survey on digital civility conducted in 32 countries in 2020.
The key findings are:
1) Teenagers led an improvement in online civility in 2020, with their digital civility index scores improving more than adults. Nearly 80% of the overall improvement was driven by teenagers.
2) While a majority still rated the overall state of online civility negatively, fewer respondents rated it as "bad" compared to 2019. However, ratings of bullying online remained largely unchanged.
3) Countries that had the biggest improvements in digital civility scores from 2019 to 2020 tended to be those previously ranked as having lower levels of online civ
The document discusses youth safety on social media and provides the following key points:
- 65% of teens use social networks and create profiles, with most visiting daily
- Social media allows for both positive uses like connecting with friends as well as risks like cyberbullying, inappropriate content, and damaged reputations
- While risks of online predators exist, actual cases of abuse are statistically very rare, and risks tend to correlate more with a child's offline circumstances than technology use alone
- Solutions require understanding adolescent development and behavior, recognizing both benefits and amplified risks of social media, and collaborative long-term responses targeting real risks.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
