The connection between teenagers and the internet
The hit TV series Puberty, which premiered in March this year, sparked a debate about boys and their relationship with digital space. It also caused a widespread concern about teenagers’ use of social media.
However, it turns out that teenagers have the same ability to seek information and knowledge as adults, as well as the ability to think critically. Is there any practical measures to make the internet a useful educational tool, rather than just restricting its access to teenagers.
Dr Alexandra James joined ‘Wednesday Daily’ to further discuss peoples’ misconceptions about how young people use the Internet.
