  2. OUR CHANGES...

  3. Aims and Objectives • Innovative • Unique • Connecting people on a different level

  4. James Hupprich and Thora Jackson 2011, “Should kids be on Facebook?”, Scholastic News, vol. 79, no. 15, pp. 7 : • James Hupprich, New York: kids should be allowed on social networking sites as long as their page is set so only friends can see it. Facebook is for cool kids like me who play hockey. We could post things, like about winning games. But parents should always check their kids’ profiles, to be safe.

  5. Canteen • Based on the real life experience of a school canteen. • A completely virtual experience to mimic the real life and the interactions that occur during a child's break-time. • Join 'Tables', similar to Google+'s 'circles'. When you join a table you become part of that tables instant chat. You can see who's on the table before hand. • School contained, introducing kids to social media before they use more 'adult' site such as Facebook and Twitter. Can be used as a learning tool. • 'Staffroom' to talk to staff members about completing work, problems etc, similar to Blackboard, making Canteen an academic tool too, getting kids to grips with online systems before secondary school. • Users have their own 'Locker', which contains their school emails, files etc, but is more decorated and appealing to kids. • School supervised, each school would have it's own Canteen, similar to how schools have Intranets etc. • A point/reward system to encourage good, responsible behaviour.
