An Informal Discussion on Internet Matters. Moral Construction for Children and Young People
Shaoguang, Yang
Chinese Education and Society, v39 n1 p65-83 Jan-Feb 2006
The social problems triggered by Internet are legion. Computer games and such high-tech achievements of the Internet that used to be regarded as "angels" are today frequently playing the role of "demons." As the times advance, Internet ethics have become a new challenge facing educational workers. Today, when our country is attaching great importance to building up youngsters' ideology and morals, youngsters' Internet ethics is a new issue that deserves constant exploration. In May 2004, the Chinese Communist Party's Central Committee (CCPCC) held a national conference in Beijing on strengthening and improving the work of building up ideological and moral work among juveniles, and in October 2004, the CCPCC and State Council once more put forward a number of opinions concerning strengthening the building up of ideology and morals among college students. These, and the emergence of a series of documents and measures, fully demonstrate the high degree of attention the Party and state attach to building up the ideology and morals of children and young people.
