Book excerpt: My name is Jaquelle, and I'm a teenager. I like football movies, sushi, and dark chocolate. But the biggest, most crucial, most significant thing about me is that my life's task is to follow Jesus. He is the One who changed my life. That's what this book is about. It's for teenagers eager to reject the status quo and low standards our culture sets for us. It's for those of us who don't want to spend the adolescent years slacking off, but rather standing out and digging deep into what Jesus says about following him. This book will help you see how the truth about God changes everything—our relationships, our time, our sin, our habits, and more—freeing us to live joyful, obedient, and Christ-exalting lives, even while we're young.

Download or read book Teenagers and Technology written by Chris Davies and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-02-11 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The popular media often presents a negative picture of young people and technology. From addiction to gaming, the distractions of the Internet, to the risks of social networking, the downsides of new technology in the lives of teenagers are often over-blown. Teenagers and Technology presents a balanced picture of the part played by technology in the lives of young people. Drawing on extensive interviews conducted over several years, this book offers a timely and non-sensational exploration of teenagers’ experiences and opinions about the digital technologies they use, desire and dislike. The book covers a range of topical subjects including: Social networking and online engagement in the wider social world Building online self-identity and group membership Technology in the home Developing technology skills in support of learning Drawing on technological resources in the journey towards adulthood. Grounded in what young people actually say about using new technology in their daily lives, Teenagers and Technology presents a picture in which young people have in some respects a unique relationship to technology, but one that is actually not exceptional or of a completely different order to how people in general relate to it. By providing a nuanced view on the topic, Teenagers and Technology counters the extreme accounts of ‘digital youth’, and exaggerated anxieties created by the mass media. It will be of interest to students and academics working in the fields of adolescent and Internet studies, along with education professionals, practitioners, teenagers and their parents.

Book excerpt: As seen in Time, USA TODAY, The Atlantic, The Wall Street Journal, and on CBS This Morning, BBC, PBS, CNN, and NPR, iGen is crucial reading to understand how the children, teens, and young adults born in the mid-1990s and later are vastly different from their Millennial predecessors, and from any other generation. With generational divides wider than ever, parents, educators, and employers have an urgent need to understand today’s rising generation of teens and young adults. Born in the mid-1990s up to the mid-2000s, iGen is the first generation to spend their entire adolescence in the age of the smartphone. With social media and texting replacing other activities, iGen spends less time with their friends in person—perhaps contributing to their unprecedented levels of anxiety, depression, and loneliness. But technology is not the only thing that makes iGen distinct from every generation before them; they are also different in how they spend their time, how they behave, and in their attitudes toward religion, sexuality, and politics. They socialize in completely new ways, reject once sacred social taboos, and want different things from their lives and careers. More than previous generations, they are obsessed with safety, focused on tolerance, and have no patience for inequality. With the first members of iGen just graduating from college, we all need to understand them: friends and family need to look out for them; businesses must figure out how to recruit them and sell to them; colleges and universities must know how to educate and guide them. And members of iGen also need to understand themselves as they communicate with their elders and explain their views to their older peers. Because where iGen goes, so goes our nation—and the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confident Parents, Confident Kids lays out an approach for helping parents—and the kids they love—hone their emotional intelligence so that they can make wise choices, connect and communicate well with others (even when patience is thin), and become socially conscious and confident human beings. How do we raise a happy, confident kid? And how can we be confident that our parenting is preparing our child for success? Our confidence develops from understanding and having a mastery over our emotions (aka emotional intelligence)—and helping our children do the same. Like learning to play a musical instrument, we can fine-tune our ability to skillfully react to those crazy, wonderful, big feelings that naturally arise from our child’s constant growth and changes, moving from chaos to harmony. We want our children to trust that they can conquer any challenge with hard work and persistence; that they can love boundlessly; that they will find their unique sense of purpose; and they will act wisely in a complex world. This book shows you how. With author and educator Jennifer Miller as your supportive guide, you'll learn: the lies we’ve been told about emotions, how they shape our choices, and how we can reshape our parenting decisions in better alignment with our deepest values. how to identify the temperaments your child was born with so you can support those tendencies rather than fight them. how to align your biggest hopes and dreams for your kids with specific skills that can be practiced, along with new research to support those powerful connections. about each age and stage your child goes through and the range of learning opportunities available. how to identify and manage those big emotions (that only the parenting process can bring out in us!) and how to model emotional intelligence for your children. how to deal with the emotions and influences of your choir—the many outside individuals and communities who directly impact your child’s life, including school, the digital world, extended family, neighbors, and friends. Raising confident, centered, happy kids—while feeling the same way about yourself—is possible with Confident Parents, Confident Kids.

Book excerpt: In this New York Times–bestselling book, Dr. Daniel Siegel shows parents how to turn one of the most challenging developmental periods in their children’s lives into one of the most rewarding. Between the ages of twelve and twenty-four, the brain changes in important and, at times, challenging ways. In Brainstorm, Dr. Daniel Siegel busts a number of commonly held myths about adolescence—for example, that it is merely a stage of “immaturity” filled with often “crazy” behavior. According to Siegel, during adolescence we learn vital skills, such as how to leave home and enter the larger world, connect deeply with others, and safely experiment and take risks. Drawing on important new research in the field of interpersonal neurobiology, Siegel explores exciting ways in which understanding how the brain functions can improve the lives of adolescents, making their relationships more fulfilling and less lonely and distressing on both sides of the generational divide.

This book was released on with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Raising Teenagers: Navigating the Joys and Challenges Book Series As a parent of a teenager in today's digital age, I know firsthand the challenges of navigating the complex and ever-changing landscape of technology. That's why I wrote this book, “Teenagers and Technology: Navigating the Digital World with Your Teen” - to help other parents understand the unique and sometimes overwhelming world their teens are living in and equip them with the tools they need to help their teens navigate it safely and responsibly. From social media to video games, the digital world is an integral part of modern teenage life. And while technology has brought many benefits to our lives, it has also brought a host of challenges and risks, especially for young people. As a parent, it can be difficult to know how to balance the benefits of technology with the potential risks and pitfalls. In “Teenagers and Technology: Navigating the Digital World with Your Teen”, I explore the latest trends in teen technology use, the effects of technology on teenagers' mental health, and strategies for building healthy relationships with technology. I delve into the risks of online behavior and provide practical tips for promoting safe and responsible technology use in your family. One of the key themes of this book is the importance of open communication with your teen. As a parent, it can be tempting to simply impose rules and restrictions on your teen's technology use. But in my experience, this approach is often counterproductive. You may better understand your teen's motivations, interests, and concerns by having open discussions with them about how they use technology. You can then jointly develop appropriate routines and limits. Another essential theme of the book is the role of parents in modeling responsible technology use. As a parent, you are your teen's primary role model and your behavior can have a significant impact on their habits and attitudes. You may set a good example for your teen and aid in the development of good habits that will benefit them far into adulthood by using technology responsibly yourself. Throughout the book, I also provide practical tips and strategies for managing your teen's technology use. From setting limits and boundaries to monitoring their online activity, there are a variety of approaches that parents can take to promote safe and responsible technology use. And while there is no one-size-fits-all solution, I provide a range of options and recommendations that can be adapted to fit the unique needs of your family. Finally, I discuss the necessity of seeking help and support when needed. If you are concerned about your teen's technology use or behavior, there are a variety of resources available, from online support groups to professional counseling. By being proactive and seeking help early on, you can help your teen address any issues and develop healthy habits that will serve them well into the future. In summary, “Teenagers and Technology: Navigating the Digital World with Your Teen” is a comprehensive guide to helping parents navigate the digital world with their teens. By exploring the latest trends in teen technology use, the effects of technology on mental health, and strategies for promoting responsible technology use, I hope to provide you with the knowledge and tools you need to help your teen thrive in the digital age.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Youth around the world are fittingly described as digital natives because of their comfort and skill with technological hardware and content. Recent studies indicate that an overwhelming majority of children and teenagers use the Internet, cell phones, and other mobile devices.

Violence, cyberbullying, and victimization. Excessive Internet use and addictive behavior.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sexting. Cyberbullying. Narcissism. Social media has become the dominant force in young people's lives, and each day seems to bring another shocking tale of private pictures getting into the wrong hands, or a lament that young people feel compelled to share their each and every thought with the entire world. Drawing on a large-scale survey and interviews with students on thirteen college campuses, Freitas finds that what young people are overwhelmingly concerned with--what they really want to talk about--is happiness. The Happiness Effect is an eye-opening window into their first-hand experiences of social media and its impact on them.
