How are online activities affecting society?
Bonnie Szumski
- Reading
- Read it as an invitation to examine claims: pause at the quotations and ask what each one supports.
- Themes
- Online activity and young people: The book asks how online activities affect youth. This is presented as an issue for examination; the question alone does not establish a particular judgement about online activity or young people.
- Addiction and antisocial behaviour: The book asks whether online activities are addictive and whether they promote antisocial behaviour. The topics are posed as questions, so their inclusion does not establish that the book endorses either claim.
- Political and world events: The contents ask how online activities affect political and world events. The book presents this as a subject for examination; the question does not establish a positive or negative judgement.
- Worth knowing
- The book addresses addiction and antisocial behaviour and violence as questions about online activity. If these topics could prompt concern, you might preview the relevant sections together; the depth and examples are not clear.
