48 percent of households have broadband Rioja.
After a lazy summer, the students return to class and you have to change some habits that have led them to spend much of the summer coupled to the computer and other devices at your fingertips.
We can not forget that in Spain there are 15.3 million households of which 54.0 percent have Internet access. In Rioja, the figure was 51.1 for a total of 107,000 homes. The, tera gold, use of the technology is universal, but now we have to rationalize it.
Thus, the figures in La Rioja guarantee that 62.3 percent of households have any type of computer, 51.1 percent have Internet access and 48 percent have broadband.
According to John Romero, founder of Digital Addiction, "The problem now facing us is to, mortal gold, get our children back to work and study habits, which have been neglected during the summer. In the majority of cases have passed time glued to the Play, Wii, PC and any electronic device you can think of. now it's time to go back to the harsh realities. "
Digital Addiction is an organization that gives lectures, organizes conferences and seminars for teens,, sto energy credits , teenagers, parents, teachers and general practitioners in order to show you how to make healthy use of technology. Its activities in schools, universities, community centers and businesses, both in the Peninsula and in the islands and the autonomous cities of Ceuta and Melilla. Teens are taught the language lectures with presentations SMS.
In recent years, the majority of school Rioja have to use the computer to study and do homework at home, which in many cases it is impossible to exercise appropriate control over their use of these devices.
We can not forget that the proportion of the use of information technology by the children is generally very high. Computer use among children is almost universal.
In Spain, 94.5 percent of them have used it for the last three months, compared to 91.8 in La Rioja. And as for the use of Internet in our country is used by 85.1 percent, compared to 76.6 percent in our region. These are data from the last poll published on equipment and use of information technologies and communication in homes, the National Institute of Statistics, for 2009.
This widespread and growing technology may pose some problems. It is therefore important to put some media that allow us to avoid such undesirable situations. A great help to achieve this is to follow the Golden Rule of Digital Addiction.
Romero explains that "this rule is to avoid always, absolutely always, that the computer is in the bedroom of a teenager. Must be continually in the living room or in a common area of the house, so that the kids do not consider that is a privately owned, but a common good which should make proper use. "
Although this is not the final solution, but if a critical first step because more devices are used in addition to the computer. The main equipment used in homes to connect to the Internet are the desktop computer (76.2 percent of households), the notebook (50.8 percent) and the mobile phone(11.3 percent), although increasing access by other devices (PDAs, PDA, television or game console).
Among them include increasing the console connection, which rose from 3.9 percent in 2008 to 7.3 percent in 2009, whose main users are teenagers who often connect to the Internet without their parents having the remotest idea of it.
We can not forget that in Spain 66.3 percent of households have some type of computer, 54 percent have Internet access and 51.3 percent have broadband.
With these data, we realize that not only is important to keep your computer in a common place in the house but put some limits on hours of use, and try to make sure that it is being used wisely.
Many teens spend the afternoon alone at home because both parents work, and if they themselves are not aware of the need to make appropriate use of this technology we are going to notice with the suspense that began to arrive in a few months and continue to arrive during throughout the course.
