Reviews

"This book offers insight and help to motivate and maximize learning for the Internet Generation. Rosen offers invaluable guidance, support, and ideas for parents and teachers." --Eric Milou, Professor of Mathematics, Rowan University "Larry Rosen's pioneering work in this field has been well-recognized by his professional colleagues - those of us in the field who are seeking to help educators, policy-makers, and parents understand what is happening as our society and our youth embrace digital media technologies. Larry's research-based, positive, proactive messages are a welcome relief from the unsupported fear-based messages that are unfortunately also present. Rewired should be considered a 'must-read' by all professionals who work with youth, especially those in leadership positions." --Nancy Willard Director of Center for Safe and Responsible Internet Use "Great resource for parenting the Net Generation" --Scholastic Parent & Child Magazine on Me, Myspace, and I "A timely and comprehensive look at the virtual world.
