The computer games are more and more violent often recreates the bloody images with greater exactitude, without considering that are going to be seen by children. All this causes that we do not see the true reality of the computer games, that also can be educative. There are numerous games that estan destined to the children with incapacities, these games estan very integrated in the education of these children and every time more advances in this subject are made, but all this forgets when it sees the violent games, these games are put on sale and are bought by small children or are supplied online and had access to great young them as as much small without control some. The control of the parents sometimes is not absolutely correct, since the parents estan very occupied with their works and they do not see that their children in front of the computer play. The children grow with greater violence, no longer only in the TV but also in the computer, numerous studies demonstrate that these children are the more violent. We faced a society composed of very aggressive children and must take care of these children. The children must be defense of the violent games and he is due to motivate to them so that they use the educative games where they to learn new things or to reinforce what they already know. In Spain, the educative games are used with the students with learning problems and to reinforce the acquired knowledge, nevertheless in reference to the violent games we are very lost and still there is much work to do. The Spanish society has measures of protection against these games but they are not sufficient. The teachers we must motivate our students to that they do not waste the time with games in which they do not learn anything.

The violence in the computer games
The computer games are more and more violent often recreates the bloody images with greater exactitude, without considering that are going to be seen by children. All this causes that we do not see the true reality of the computer games, that also can be educative. There are numerous games that estan destined to the children with incapacities, these games estan very integrated in the education of these children and every time more advances in this subject are made, but all this forgets when it sees the violent games, these games are put on sale and are bought by small children or are supplied online and had access to great young them as as much small without control some.

Private or public?
The Internet use are broken the borders between the public and the private thing, now are no secrets. This is an advantage on the one hand and a great disadvantage by others, the people we want to maintain and to safeguard our privacy and sometimes is impossible, since Internet to us puts it very difficult.
There are pages web that sell our personal data to companies of publicity without asking the users but who controls this? it is penalized?.It seems that these people estan over the law, do not respect the privacy of the users.
Pages like Facebook, Twitter, allow to see images us and commentaries in time real, something really important, but sometimes those images can be harmful, according to those who are the people see who them. Therefore, the great question is public or private? who establishes the limits. It seems that no longer there are limits, in Spain is a Web very similar to Facebook, Tuenti call that is used by young people, and through this page they have threatened many young people who soon have been assassinated. Now in Spain there is a great controversy referring to the utility of this page and mainly if the parents of the young people must be present when their children esten using it. They have already been the three assassinated usuary young people of Tuenti and the controversy is served.

Utility of blog for a teacher.
The utility or the utilities that blog can offer to a professor is several and I can say, the communication or with the companions, other companions of other schools and mainly with our students. They can leave the tasks them of realising in house, but he has taken care of the class, or any other reason. Also they can use to publish the evaluations of each student, by means of a certain code that expresses dedicate to what student to that evaluation or that qualification. This is important so that it is not something public. They can use it to the students to speak with the professor of a private way.
We can use also we have it taste of the communication channel with the parents, to indicate a certain special situation to them that the group or the school can have happened in, the etc. Generally, blogs has a great interior of the utility as much then outside the school is only necessary to want to learn to use them and to see their utility without prejudicar. But everything is not advantages is necessary to consider the privacy of the students and who do not make an evil use. Some teachers do not want to use it since they do not see it safe and they are obstinate to that their tasks are public. The old teachers prefer to use books and say not to the new technologies. I fodder that is something useful and that when she is professor I would like to use with my students.

Internet, the best friend of study?
Internet has changed to the face to the education and therefore the study methods. The three " w" they are the first passage to an infinite world of possibilities that hide after a single click and which they excessively lighten the service load that supports many students. And it is that to day of today one becomes impossible to imagine an academic consultation without Internet like ally. The problem arrives at the time of resisting the information or selecting between the great amount of the most trustworthy documents. It is there when one demonstrates as Internet has helped us to make our tasks although it is necessary to say that its selective capacity has dozed and of reasoning. This educative change gives to passage to the call " ciberplagio" , or what is the same to adopt and to present/display like own ideas, theories and hypothesis of others to elaborate an own academic work. The plagiarism has always existed in the education, the danger arrives from the increasing dynamics that has in the last taken years after the irruption in our lives from Internet. If the affirmative answer were asked to him the students of any Spanish university if it has copied something of Internet and even complete works would be majority. The students forget the ethics and go to the comfortable thing. This is something that as future professor I would like to correct.

How to select the information....?
We must prepare a student for to be able of finding information, evaluating, selecting, structuring and incorporating it into their own body of knowledge, the ability to remember.Search: allow students to develop information seeking.
Assess information implies the possession of value criteria and the ability to apply knowledge. Select the information once valued, involves making decisions, decision selectively.
Structure information. The new and old information into a coherent whole.
Incorporate information implies the existence of previous information. The thing to avoid is the memorization as the basis for the reproduction of knowledge in a way uncritical. The settlement allows memorization of a database of information that then will shape our criteria for judging, and will allow the structuring of knowledge.
General criteria for the selection, design and evaluation in the use of media and ICT
Five criteria for choosing them:
- Suitability: fulfill the task set.
- Level of complexity: understanding for students.
- The cost: the acquisition and retention.
- Availability: materials and equipment available to us when needed
- Technical quality: acceptable, audio.

Advantages of internet use for students
Facilitating collaboration among students, email discussion forums, chat, video conferencing.
Providing greater opportunities to communicate with the teacher.
Greater involvement, some teachers think they can help you expose your point of view this forces them to try to develop written his opinion.
Some features of the Information Society
Exuberance: We have an overwhelming and diverse amounts of data in which we work every day.
Omnipresence. The new information tools, or at least its contents, we find everywhere, are part of the contemporary public area (that are largely scenario) and also our privacy (...Facebook, Twitter, etc). That's the Information Society. The media have become the social interaction space par excellence, which means better facilities for the exchange of concerns and ideas
Irradiation. The Information Society is also distinguished by the distance that now reaches nearly unlimited exchange of messages. Geographical barriers are disappearing.
Speed. Communication, except technical errors, it has become instantaneous. You no longer need to wait several days or even more, to receive the response from the recipient of an email from us and even to initiate communication mechanisms exist simultaneously at prices much lower than traditional telephony.
Multilateralism / Centrality. The technical capabilities of contemporary communications can receive information from everywhere.
Interactivity / unilateralism. New tools to disseminate information allows users to be producers of their own posts.
Inequality. The Information Society offers wealth of content and possibilities for education and exchange between people around the world.
Heterogeneity. In actual media and particularly on the Internet are doubled-and multiply-attitudes, opinions, thoughts and circumstances that are present in our societies.
Disorientation. The enormous and growing amount of information that we have access not only opportunity for social and personal development. Also and above all has become a daily challenge and a source of oppression for those who receive or can find thousands of news, symbols, statements, images and almost any kind of incitement through the media and especially on the Net.
