"Willard provides the reader with a critical understanding of why we need a more effective approach to teaching teens about Internet safety and citizenship. The guidelines and strategies she describes make the reader believe that implementation of a more effective, Cyber Savvy approach is not only feasible, but easily accomplished."(Aimée M. Bissonette, JD 2011-04-18)"This book's approach is both interesting and outside the common tactics used by many schools to address cyber-citizenship issues.
