Thrive : how to cultivate character so your children can flourish online / Tom Harrison. by Harrison, Tom, 1976- Robinson, 2021. Call #: 649.125 H322t Subjects Internet and children.   Internet and teenagers.   Internet and youth.   Technology and children.   Online social networks.   Social media and society.   Social media -- Security measures.   Internet -- Safety measures.   Parenting. ISBN:  9781472144737 (pbk.) Description:  xviii, 254 p. ; 24 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references and index. Summary:  "Parenting in the cyber age is faught with worries. Are our children spending too long online and what are they doing? Are they using the internet wisely and behaving as they would in the 'real' world? How should we educate our children to avoid onlin erisks and make the most of online opportunities? How can we help them to live in an online world worth living in? Dr Tom Harrison faced these same questions the day he bought his daughter her first smartphone. A major milestone had been reached: she had entered the 'cyber-world'. As a leading expert in the field of character education and the internet, Harrison had devoted countless hours to studying this world and the way children interact with it. But he no longer needed to know what to think; he needed to know what to do. The answer lies in a theory of virtue ethics that is thousands of years old. Harrison reconstructs the theory for the modern age and explains how we must cultivate character and cyber-wisdom in our children so that they are equipped to do the right thing at the right time online --even when no one is watching. This is the first practical book of its kind to show parents and teachers how to develop character as the foundation for helping young people to thrive in their online interactions. Based on his own experience as a parent, more than a decade of research and thousands of conversations with parents, teachers, children and policymakers, Harrison's REACT and THRIVE models have been developed to engage with character, well-being, social and emotional learning, ethics and digital citizenship - all the ingredients for flourishing online."--Back cover.
