Book excerpt: Technology, smartphones and social media are changing how we live but are these advancements changing who we are? In our globally-connected, instantly-accessible world, is it possible for parents to be more influential on their children's character than the internet? Parents everywhere are struggling to find a standard they can maintain while keeping their children protected online and connected with friends. In the absence of any such standard, many children have free reign with the technology they own and the media they consume. The result has been an unsettling amount of cyberbullying, self-harm, and suicides along with increased rates of adolescent depression and anxiety. In Managing Media Creating Character, you will learn how to use the technology and media your child craves in order to develop patience, respect, kindness, honesty, self-control, modesty, humility, and self-worth. Each chapter presents a character trait along with a practical and applicable media standard in order to teach responsible use and good character. These character traits are honed and polished through the use of digital media and screens and become the foundation and standard for how your child will engage with technology forever. This book helps establish a technology and media standard for families with: Babies & Toddlers who are incredibly drawn to the glow of your phone. Elementary age children when the school-issued tablet or a second grader with a smartphone brings up questions sooner than you are ready to answer. Middle School age children when smartphones, sexting, and depression begins. High School age teens who can either solidify or shatter their reputation by what is posted and shared online. Additionally, this book is a valuable guide for grandparents, teachers, caretakers, and pastors who are involved in children's lives and want to help curb obsession and promote character. There has never been a better time to unite on a standard for technology and media.

Download or read book Managing in the Media written by William Houseley and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2013-04-26 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Managing in the Media has been devised for a broad audience. It is based upon the perceived need for a text that amalgamates cultural theories, film and television analysis, management theories and media production practice into one volume. There are many books on film and cultural studies. Similarly, there are copious numbers of texts written on management. To date little has been written that analyses the management of the audiovisual industry set against the backdrop of the cultural and economic environment within which the media manager operates. Managing in the Media is divided into three sections that take the reader from the global to the specific, from the strategic to the tactical. Each chapter discusses specific topics that can be read in isolation yet contribute to the theme within each part. Taken as a whole, the book provides the potential professional media manager and current practising media manager with a framework of issues that will give them an awareness of the range of knowledge needed by the successful media manager. This book does not try to be a manual to success. The media industry is awash with successful individuals none of whom needed textbooks to set them on their chosen career paths. Yet these exceptional people prove the rule; that in the main, most media practitioners would benefit from some additional support and guidance. The aim of this book is to present to them some of the management issues that have, or will have, an impact upon their working careers. The accompanying website www.mediaops.net (which can also be accessed via www.focalpress.com) features: - Tutor notes and reader activities - Updated list of further reading - Additional support material such as production templates - Interviews with the authors - A discussion forum - Industry and education links - Media News

Download or read book Brave Parenting written by Krissy Pozatek and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we build resilient children who can handle life's challenges? As parents today, we often feel that our role is to protect our children from the world: to cushion them when they fall, to lift them over obstacles, and to remove sharp rocks from their path. But controling a child’s entire environment and keeping all pain at bay isn’t feasible—we can’t prepare the world for our children, so instead we should focus on preparing our children for the world. “The solution is not removing impediments from our children’s lives,” writes Krissy Pozatek, “it is compassionately encouraging them to be brave.” We need to show our kids how to navigate their own terrain. If our kids face small hurdles, small pains, at a young age and learn to overcome these obstacles, they will be much better equipped to face larger trouble later in life. Early lessons in problem solving teach self-confidence and self-reliance—and show us that our kids are tougher than we think. Krissy draws her lessons from her experience guiding children in wilderness therapy and from her Buddhist practice—showing us that all life is as unpredictable as mountain weather, that impermanence is the only constant, and that the most loving act a parent can do is fearlessly ready their child to face the wilderness. For parents of children of all ages.
