Description:
: MySpace is the fastest growing online social network,
frequently ranked among the top five most popular
internet sites. Although some dangers are associated
with MySpace (e.g., cyberstalking, cyberbullying),
online communities are also tools that adolescents
use regularly. The average adolescent user spends
two hours a day, five days a week on MySpace. The
purposes of this presentation are to further familiarize
counselors with MySpace, to conceptualize adolescents’
MySpace use in the context of identity development,
and to generate ideas for counseling practice.
Directions:
From I-40 , whether approaching from the east or west
on I-40, take Exit 50-A which is Highway 25 South
(Hendersonville Road). Head south on Hendersonville
Rd. At the second stoplight, turn right on Vanderbilt
Park Drive. Stay on Vanderbilt Park Drive, which will
make a turn to the right behind the Asheville Cardiology
building. Proceed to the roundabout and go about halfway
around. You will see the Mission Reuter Children's
Outpatient Building and directional signs to the left
for parking.
